Metro, St. Pölten – Austria’s first BREEAM Outstanding building in 10 years

The new Metro Cash & Carry in St. Pölten, Austria by architects Poppe*Prehal

When Metro put a tender out to architects and general planners for their new St.Pölten Metro store there was one key requirement: the new building should be a zero emissions building. For Architect Poppe*Prehal this was a challenge they knew they could rise to, and even exceed – they pushed the new Metro to achieve Outstanding BREEAM status.
ASSA ABLOY Entrance Systems met with Andreas Prehal to discuss how he ensured the new Metro achieved zero emissions while still optimizing the flow of people and goods, and creating a great looking building.
