In the spring of 2014, Dalarna University in Falun inaugurated a new media library with 400 workplaces in a glazed, interior hall. A few months later, the library was awarded the title of best completed building in the category of Higher Education and Research at the World Architecture Festival in Singapore

Every detail and fitting was carefully selected and designed to achieve perfect harmony. The Cibes A5000 platform lift blends in seamlessly with its surroundings, providing both beauty and function.

Provides accessibility for staff

Torbjörn Wiegandt at HMC Construction was the Project Manager of this successful project. He explains why they chose a Cibes A5000.

and the ability to move lots of books at once

Originally the idea was to put in two lifts of another type, but we wanted a more cost effective solution and then our choice fell on the Cibes A5000. We also wanted a lift design that fitted into the environment and a solution that can be trusted. This kind of lift is not used very frequently, but when it does, it must work without any problems. We know from experience that Cibes lifts fulfil this requirement.
