Eco Print is a press group bringing together high tech installations. Its facilities print newspapers and periodicals such as De Morgen, Het Laatste Nieuws, L’Echo, Dag Allemaal, Genieten …
The new Eco Print printing house is a remarkable example of its type, not only does it blend technical and economic stylishness but it also exudes a strong architectural image.
The team of architects from the ELD Partnership chose functionality in its most pure expression: "less is more".
This search for purity was translated particularly through the use of certain materials: glass, concrete, aluminium and bluestone were selected in a reflective way.
The great entrance hall in functional blue stone with clean lines immediately sets the tone.

Testimonial
Filip Declerq. Architect.
"I chose Belgian Blue Stone for its strength and simplicity expressed here with the rough sawn finish."
