As the young people of the world compete for the Olympic Gold, TROX products are playing a part in their success. TROX components and systems are providing a pleasant climate in a range of competition venues in Beijing.

For example, TROX supplied over 4,000 staircase swirl diffusers as well as jet nozzles and smoke dampers to the national swimming centre, the "Water Cube", designed by the Australia-based office PTW Architects. The exterior covering of the stadium consists of 3,000 air-filled cushions made of a special transparent film. This film is capable of lighting up in over 1,670 shades of colour. The stadium can accommodate roughly 17,000 spectators in 6,000 fixed seats and 11,000 improvised seats and sees daylight for up to nine hours every day.

In the Olympic Badminton Stadium, over 9,000 staircase swirl diffusers ensure a pleasant climate for the approx. 6,900 spectators. Further TROX products were also installed in the Laoshan Velodrome, a cycling arena, and in other sporting venues.

The company's services for the Olympic sports facilities are being coordinated on the spot by TROX China. In February of this year, TROX China, a TROX subsidiary since 2003, opened a new production hall on the 10,000 m² company premises. Mainly air diffusers, volume flow controllers, fire dampers and air-water systems are produced in the new plant. TROX China has sales offices in Shanghai, Beijing and Guangshou.
