Everything goes well for a long time - but suddenly things have to happen very quickly. Then tradesmen have to arrive at a training and office building in Mannheim to repair a burst pipe and rectify the damage as quickly as possible. After all, operations must continue as soon as possible. MuP Umwelttechnik GmbH, Heidelberg, has the expertise to make this possible. Time and again, caretakers, building technicians and tradesmen have to deal not only with water, noise and dirt, but also with another problem that has long been ignored: Artificial mineral fibres are processed in the ceiling cladding - and as soon as work is carried out on the brittle ceiling tiles or the insulation mats above, there is a risk of fibres being released and released into the indoor air. As these fibres can cause cancer, it is not only the workers involved in repair and renovation work who are at risk, but also anyone who uses the training and office rooms afterwards.

As the operator of the building complex, a nationwide property manager and property developer, was aware of its far-reaching responsibility, it commissioned MuP Umwelttechnik to draw up a concept package so that the caretakers on site and contracted construction companies know what to do when work is being carried out in the area of the ceilings. And not just in the aforementioned case of a burst pipe, but also for other projects, such as when renovation work is planned or when pipes are being laid.

To this end, our building experts have provided property operators with assistance for various scenarios: These include work and safety plans that fulfil all trade association regulations as well as a clear action plan for practical implementation on site. It is also planned to instruct the caretakers and, if necessary, contractors with regard to the protective measures on site.
