An in-house design office

Our design office uses the most innovative tools and working methods to design and renovate data centers:

• Digital simulation of airflows: this tool simulating the properties of the rooms but also calculating and displaying the air flows and engendered phenomena, has been taken from the aeronautics and space industry. It contributes significantly to reducing the costs relating to cooling and to improving robustness and operation.
• Building Information Modeling, BIM: with the building data modeling tools, we give you 3D, collaborative digital models which are enriched and documented throughout your data center’s life-cycle.

Appraisal and certifications

• Designer Tier Accreditation by Uptime Institute
• ISO 50001 certification (energy management): APL has a department dedicated to energy optimization
• Endorser of the European Code of Conduct for Energy Efficiency in Data Centers
