Reference Projects Gardens By The Bay Envisioned as an integral part of the plans to transform Singapore from a 'Garden City' to a 'City in a Garden', it consists of three distinctive waterfront gardens. High density ROCKWOOL stone wool was used for internal lining to enhance the acoustic and thermal performance. Photo courtesy of Marina Bay Sands Terminal 3, Changi Airport This award winning Terminal 3 airport incorporates natural features, with a green wall that helps to regulate the internal temperature of the terminal. ROCKWOOL supplied products for the HVAC and roof system for thermal, acoustic and fire protection. ITE College West The vocational institute was built as part of the 'One ITE System, Three Colleges' plan. It has training facilities catering to the retail, hospitality and automotive industry. The ROCKWOOL solutions used here provide comfortable and safe buildings for students to excel in. Marina Bay Financial Centre The three office towers stand tall, offering nearly three million square feet of prime office, residential and retail space. It was awarded the Green Mark Gold award for employing sustainable features and the Merit Award for Design & Engineering Safety Excellence by Singapore's Building & Construction Authority. ROCKWOOL supplied products for the HVAC system, partition wall, lift shaft wall and curtain wall as well as the Rockfon ceiling products. Marina Bay Sands Singapore s newest, brightest icon, this is one of Asia s leading destinations for leisure, entertainment and business. Much more than a luxurious playground, it is a monumental gateway; positioning the city as a centre for innovation, culture and entertainment. Working closely with the contractors responsible for the partition walls, curtain walls and HVAC, ROCKWOOL helped create spaces that are durable, acoustically comfortable and safe from fire. 14 15
