Modern hall solution supports specialised recycling processes
Bieri Tenta AG, which specialises in fabric solutions, has successfully completed the construction of a warehouse for Theler AG and BOWA Recycling AG at the Susten site. The warehouse will enable efficient management of materials for the recycling operation in future.
Bieri Tenta AG, a manufacturer of fabric solutions based in Grosswangen, has announced the successful completion of a warehouse project at its Susten site. The client was BOWA Recycling AG, a subsidiary of Theler AG from Raron VS that specialises in recycling contaminated soil. According to the press release, the warehouse is optimally designed to meet the requirements of modern recycling operations and is already the second project in which the companies have collaborated. In 2019, Bieri had already built a 2,700 square metre hall for BOWA Recycling AG.
The warehouse in Susten is a gabled hall with a floor space of just under 3,000 square metres. The warehouse is equipped with six Bieri roller doors (5 x 5 metres) and six escape doors, which guarantee smooth operations and a high level of safety in everyday use. During the six-week installation process, Bieri used a mobile crane to lift the steel parts, which weighed up to 13 tonnes, to their destination. A 59 x 61 metre film weighing around 3.6 tonnes serves as the roof and covering for the membrane hall. The membrane is suitable for the installation of a photovoltaic system, allowing customers to generate sustainable energy directly on site.
The client, BOWA Recycling AG, is a subsidiary of Theler AG and operates a soil washing plant in Leuk-Susten, but has also been operating a thermal treatment plant since 2024. According to its own information, the company achieves recycling rates of up to 99 per cent for contaminated soil material.
The Bieri Group is a manufacturer of technical textile solutions for industries such as manufacturing, construction, transport, architecture and events. The company is divided into Bieri Tenta AG in Grosswangen and Bieri Zeltaplan GmbH, based in Leipzig, Germany.
