The Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games will go down in history as an exceptional event, as much for the performance of the athletes as for the ingenuity and technical excellence of the infrastructure.
At SOCOTEX, we are particularly honoured to have taken part in this international adventure by producing custom-made acoustic sails and stretched fabrics for two major projects in the heart of Paris.
Acoustic sails for the Nave of the Cité du Cinéma
As part of this worldwide event, SOCOTEX manufactured 21 acoustic sails in technical fabric for the Nave of the Cité du Cinéma. These sails cover an impressive surface area of 2250 m².
Given the monumental size of this space, our sails were specifically designed to meet several technical challenges:
Improved acoustics: These sails reduce sound resonance and create a pleasant atmosphere for events held in this huge space.
Solar protection: They also provide solar protection, limiting overheating inside and ensuring a comfortable environment for visitors.
Airy aesthetics: In addition to their technical functions, the sails are distinguished by their visual lightness and design, contributing to an airy aesthetic that enhances the space of the Nave.Because of the large size of the sails, SOCOTEX has carefully adapted their manufacture to take into account the unique characteristics of the fabric.Stretched fabrics for the largest restaurant in the Olympic Village
At the same time, SOCOTEX also produced 39 stretched membranes covering 2,600 m² to cover the terraces of the largest restaurant in the Olympic Village, which welcomed athletes from all over the world.
These waterproof membranes created a space that was both functional and elegant, offering protection from the elements while blending harmoniously into its surroundings.
Made in France know-how for major events
Our work for the Paris 2024 Olympic and Paralympic Games is a perfect illustration of the Made in France expertise and know-how for which SOCOTEX has been renowned for over 50 years.
We are proud to have contributed, in our own way, to this global event by meeting the technical and aesthetic requirements of our partners.
