VINCI Construction is one of the world's leading construction companies, specializing in transport infrastructure, buildings, networks, and urban development. VINCI Construction relies on a network of local companies, specialized networks, and specific expertise in major infrastructure projects. VINCI Construction companies operate throughout the entire life cycle of a structure (design, construction, maintenance). Present in more than 100 countries, VINCI Construction's 1,300 business units employ more than 117,000 people who have completed more than 70,000 projects and generated revenue of €31.8 billion in 2024.
At 56 metres high and 17 storeys high, it will house 125 residential units. Built by GTM Bâtiment Aquitaine, with the involvement of Arbonis, Steeleom, Navarra TS and Botte Fondations, among others, in the early stages of construction, it combines materials in an optimized design. Base and corridors are made of concrete, while 3,800 m2 of floors are made of CLT (cross-laminated timber) and 200 m3 of glulam posts and beams. Reflecting the growing expertise of local teams in the installation of wood and metal structures (editor's note: the tower cap), with the support of Arbonis, as well as in the use of low-carbon concretes formulated with Exegy®L+C3 based on limestone filler and metakaolin - which make up half of the total volumes poured - the operation is aiming for the E+C- label (Energy 3 and Carbon 2). Another unique feature of the project is the off-site production of 4,900 m2 of wood-frame facade, including aluminum joinery and finishing cladding!
