A major hospital building programme in Italy will provide over 1,700 beds in the Tuscan cities of Lucca, Massa, Pistoia and Prato.  Environmental awareness, patient comfort and building efficiency are recurrent characteristics of every design, and Wavin is contributing directly to achieving these goals in all four locations.

 

 

All building activity is managed under a single contract by this regional Italian health authority, and in order to maximize project efficiency, the main contractors chose partners who could meet the full range of requirements.

Wavin was recognised as one of the very few potential suppliers of all roof dispersal and internal drainage systems, including those required for all clean and waste water management.

> Wavin was involved from the start, providing the highly specialised consultancy we required.
> 
>  Leonardo Alderighi , CEO, Alderighi Impianti S.p.A

Wavin's QuickStream siphonic roof drainage system ensures that rainwater can be efficiently dispersed and retained for re-use in irrigation and flushing, while the near-silent SiTech system enables low-noise waste water discharge so patients and staff are not disturbed. Low maintenance costs on all systems were also important and Wavin won here, too.

For Leonardo Alderighi, CEO of prime contractor Alderighi Impianti S.p.A., “Wavin was involved from the start, providing the highly specialised consultancy we required. It was essential that the practical implementation of roof and internal systems could be implemented without modification to the overall building design, and with Wavin’s expertise we achieved this.”

## Our solutions

### Drinking water

Delivering clean water efficiently and safely has become a world-wide problem. Water is lost due to leakages and ageing networks. We need to improve the distribution of clean drinking water from source to tap. We will work towards these goals by raising the quality and performance of high-pressure water distribution networks, improving safety levels of indoor drinking water supply, and building towards a new (smarter) ways of managing drinking water.

### Heating & Cooling

People require increased comfort and well-being in the places they live and work. We need to design, build and use comfortable living environments in the most efficient and sustainable way. With the Wavin Indoor Climate solutions we aim to make a positive contribution in many different ways. We contribute to lowering energy usage when heating or cooling our homes, offices, hospitals, and more. Clean and fresh air has so many health and wellbeing benefits.

### Rainwater

Climate change with massive rainfall, extreme heats and droughts put pressure on cities. Growing populations increasingly ask for greener living space. We need to (re)act to climate change and build livable and loveable cities. We will work towards these goals by creating integrated rainwater management solutions, countering the risk of flooded streets, avoid urban heat stress, and support greenification of cities. Our Wavin solutions already contribute.

### Sewer

Millions of people have no or limited access to sanitation facilities. Simultaneously, ageing and poorly designed sewer systems contaminate groundwater resources. We need to future-proof wastewater transport and make sanitation accessible for everyone. We will work towards these goals by building sewer systems with modern technology, preventing leakages, corrosion and clogging of sewer systems, and boosting renewal of sewer infrastructure.

We need to future-proof wastewater transport and make sanitation accessible for everyone. Although drainage pipes may sound like a simple form of construction, there are many considerations behind a good and solid drainage system in buildings. We offer a range of market-leading and BIM-supported waste-water solutions incl. low-noise. With our wealth of knowledge and expertise, we can help you to create the optimal solution for your next project.
