Reliable planning thanks to the climate laboratory

Barcol-Air operates a climate laboratory at its headquarters in Switzerland. As well as focusing on product development, this facility performs various measurements and the validation of project specific requirements. This makes it possible to test and confirm the proper performance of our solutions already in the planning phase.

Proof of performance for project-specific climate ceiling solutions
Static and dynamic measurements of the performance of climate ceiling systems
Measurements of room air velocity and thermal comfort
Special measurements (control strategy, cold air drop, etc.)

Reliable processes thanks to Clim@Tool

In 2015, Barcol-Air paved the way for digitalisation throughout the company with the launch of Clim@Tool. This software was partially developed in collaboration with the University of Applied Sciences Rapperswil (HSR), Switzerland. It features interfaces with the ERP system and with the sales and project management teams in all our branch offices. Clim@Tool is also linked to our in-house climate laboratory in Switzerland and drives the manufacturing process in our own production centre in Germany.

BIM inclusive

Building Information Modeling (BIM) is a digital, model-based planning method for buildings (and other structures) that is used to create and manage data in a 3D model and remains usable from the planning, construction and throughout the operational process.

We support digital building modeling by providing 3D models for climate ceilings (project-specific) and ventilation components using Revit BIM software.
