Football Club “Shakhtar” renovated training football field.Uponor is a lead producer of HVAC systems for the different building solutions. But our products applications are not limited indoor climate only.
At the time of “Donbass Arena” construction works in Donetsk, Ukraine, the football field heating was arranged by Uponor pipes. A little bit later the FC “Shakhtar” team was forced to leave this Stadium and there was a need for another training ground. In August 2018, the construction of its own modern training field for FC Shakhtar football players began in Kyiv-Svyatoshinsky district near Kyiv.
The general contractor was the specialized company LLC "ENGO", headed by the owner Norbert Zatko, who is known for the construction of sports facilities of this level. The engineering networks made by Pump Service Company – the LLC “ENGO” partner from Czech Republic, which was involved and has already built several similar facilities earlier together with this contractor. The Uponor Meltaway system, which consists of 25 mm diameter pipes, was used to heat the football field lawn. The total length of the pipes is more than 30 km. Due to this it becomes possible to use the football field year round and in any weather.
