Cocoon Holland was hired by engineering company Takenaka for client Sekisui<\/a><\/span><\/strong> from Japan, a leading supplier of high-quality technical thermoplastics in Limburg. A client for another major project had recommended Cocoon to them. According to them, the problem with sealing the fa\u00e7ade drains was best solved with the Cocoon solution. They were absolutely right about that.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.23″ global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Sekisui<\/a><\/strong> had a problem sealing their fa\u00e7ade drains and cables. They did not know how they could do that themselves. Until they got the name Cocoon Holland from another client and heard about the kind of solutions Cocoon could offer.<\/p>\n Of course Cocoon Holland had a suitable solution for the problem of Sekisui utilizing the famous sprayable Cocoon<\/a><\/strong><\/span> PVC. This project started in August 2019 and we are currently fully engaged in various sealing activities at Sekisui in Heerlen.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n In a room on the second floor, the employees from Cocoon Holland were faced with a major challenge with an extinguishing room. Jed Lee, technical employee at Cocoon says: “There was an opening to a concrete floor. There were around 18 pipes running through it. The pipes also all had a different size. And the hole itself was 3.20 meters long and 55 cm wide. This hole had to be made completely gas-tight. It was, after all, an extinguishing room. <\/span><\/p>\nA solution for sealing all fa\u00e7ade drains<\/h2>\n
