Franki Foundations in Luxembourg

For Franki Foundations, Luxembourg has often meant a small country with big projects. In 2018 again, we are present in the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg with two ambitious projects.

New Goodyear plant in Dudelange

The tyre manufacturer Goodyear is building a brand new, fully automated, plant for its premium tyres in Dudelange. Construction of this site was granted to MG Real Estate. Willy Naessens, general contractor on this project entrusted us with the realization of the foundations.

More than 1600 augercast PCS piles, diameter 500, 700 and 1200 mm, are being installed in the black soil of southern Luxembourg.

Contern work site

A few kilometers away, near the town of Contern, other teams are currently installing more than 1400 augercast PCS piles,
this time for a huge industrial group, in collaboration with BESIX and Lux TP for concrete works.

The project for Franki Foundations also includes static and dynamic load tests, as well as pile head stripping.
