Pioneering working environments
The FUHUB, an innovative new building with up to 6,600 square meters of office and laboratory space, is being built in Berlin's Dahlem district. The location is particularly attractive for technology-orientated companies due to its connection to the Free University of Berlin and other research institutes.
MMK, the joint venture between Mayr-Melnhof Holz and Kirchdorfer Fertigteilholding, supplied more than 6,000 m² of XC® office ceiling elements with integrated edge beams for the laboratory building. The co-operation partner for the joint project "Wir für Berlin" is the Terhalle Group.

6,000 m2 XC® office ceiling elements
The FUHUB stands for innovative and future-orientated working environments that combine complementary uses: It combines flexibly usable office and laboratory space, modern conference rooms with co-working and collaboration spaces. This intelligent mix makes the timber hybrid building an innovative facility that reflects the spirit of the times, as it harmoniously integrates the needs of a dynamic working environment.
The project is being realised as a sustainable timber hybrid construction, with particular attention being paid to an efficient energy and climate concept. The office areas benefit from natural ventilation, while mechanical ventilation has been installed in the laboratory areas. The entire electricity and heat supply is provided by photovoltaic systems on the roofs. Green roofs and roof terraces, which can be used freely by all tenants, not only provide evaporative cooling, but also contribute to the promotion of biodiversity by providing a habitat for plants and insects. The innovative façade concept with external solar shading and night ventilation openings also ensures a high level of thermal comfort. Extensive open spaces and state-of-the-art technical equipment create a pleasant working environment and ideal places for creativity and productivity. The central courtyard is used for a variety of purposes and acts as a meeting point for the entire user community.
The FUHUB is therefore a flagship project for sustainable, flexible and forward-looking working and research environments. MMK supplied over 6,000 m² of XC® office ceiling elements with integrated edge beams for the laboratory building of the Free University of Berlin. Cooperation partner of the joint project "
Wir für Berlin" is the Terhalle Group.
