Cityringen Frederiksberg Allé | Copenhagen

Ceramic tiles from MOEDING were used for the facade design in seven of the 17 new metro stations. The four different green glazes – two matt and two glossy – at Frederiksberg Allé station make reference to the alley above the station which is lined with lime trees. As well as the individual freedom to design, this project also made use of a natural building material and the simplest facade was desired by the clients with minimal maintenance costs.

We opted for ceramic tiles from MOEDING because they offer a pronounced material and surface structure in large formats with a relatively low weight / area ratio and a heavy-duty, robust, vandal-resistant and aging-resistant cladding. The ceramic facade is a non-metallic cladding that allowed us to lay antenna cables for radio communication in the 150 millimeter space behind the panels.
