At Cevisama. the TAU engineering division presentsprofessionals of the hotel and restaurant sector the ultimatesolution to the current problem of adapting compliance intheir establishments with the Spanish no-smoking law to themaintenance of a good image and quality customer service inal fresco dining
The TAU engineering projects division S3-TAU introduces a revolutionarysystem for al fresco dining at Cevisama that represents the fast,comfortable and integrated solution to the challenge currently facing thehotel and restaurant sector: complying with the Spanish no-smoking lawthat came into force on January 2, with smoke-free public spaces thatpreserve the image, quality and comfort that they have been providingto their customers, with smoking areas now transferred outside theirestablishments.
In this sense, S3-TAU is presenting a system that tackles every conceptand eliminates all the problems that setting up al fresco dining in urbanareas generates for hotel and restaurant professionals at the stand that itoccupies in the fair (Pavilion 3, Level 3, Stand B42), which is being heldfrom the 8th to the 11th of February in Valencia. This is displayed throughthe recreation of a life-sized model demonstrating that this is already anavailable solution - perfectly adaptable, moreover, to the specific needs thateach user on the market has.
To begin with, the base of the outdoor dining area was built thanks to theS3-TAU Waytecsystem, an innovative building system for raised technicalfloor surfaces that makes it possible to provide professional spaces withsurface treatment and make them accessible, guaranteeing compliancewith the CTE (the Spanish technical building code). In addition, it lendsflexibility to the location of services and installations without sacrificingeither aesthetic values or comfort. In its outdoor version, such as is appliedto the Cevisama model, or to any urban al fresco dining space, it allows forthe use of, and transit through, irregular surface areas and variable slopes,whether these are on streets or squares or in building penthouses.
The advantages of Waytecsystem are functional, sustainable andaesthetic. Functional because al fresco dining areas are easily and swiftlyassembled by S3-TAU professionals, without the need for adaptationworks. Likewise, the structure itself makes it possible for all electric or
acoustic installations - to name two examples - to be hidden under theflooring of the installation proper. It is also sustainable since it does notrequire maintenance and is easy to clean, allowing for the passage ofpersons and the recovery of unused spaces. Where necessary, it can bedismounted in such a way as not to leave any traces on site. Lastly, itallows for the inclusion of substantial design, since it admits the use of themost avant-garde ceramic flooring that may be substituted fast and safely.Likewise, since it is an open structure, the outdoor areas admit any typeof decoration and may even serve as a ‘prolongation’ of the motifs that theestablishment uses in the interior, unifying styles and brand image.
CIVIS’TERMIA®: COMFORTABLE HEATING
The engineering work done by S3-TAU in the field of architecture andurban design, fully oriented towards improving the quality of human life,makes the Waytecsystem perfectly combinable and compatible withCivis’Termia, the first recordable and sustainable system of heatedceramic flooring designed to afford new uses for spaces. This is a systemthat transmits radiant heat from the floor while being designed to provideusers a sensation of comfort and well-being, capable of being controlled asregards both intensity and activation by specific sector. It is also possible toselect from among several power capacities, making the system adaptableto the environmental needs of any outdoor dining area depending on theclimate conditions of each city and its geographical location.
This result is possible thanks to the collaboration between S3-TAU and theCeca Group, following meticulous scientific studies and measurements doneby the company specialists and the experts of the Biomechanical Institute ofValencia (IBV).
The benefits of using Civis’Termia are dual: not only is the enjoyment andcomfort of customers guaranteed, al fresco dining spaces notwithstanding(although it can also be used in interiors); in addition, the use ofcumbersome gas heaters between tables is avoided in favour of customersafety, saving costs in terms of energy efficiency and improving theappearance of the establishment.
And as has already been said, all of this is achieved without sacrificingstyle and design factors, a value on the rise that is becoming extremelydecisive in a customer’s choice of establishment as regards what is comingto be called the “gastronomic experience”. For this reason, S3-TAUoutdoor dining venues were designed using the innovative elements of theEmotion series, from the NO-Stalgia collection signed by the prestigiousinternational designer Karim Rashid. Specifically, the models Fire Orangeand Grey Emotion, both manufactured in 60x60 pieces, are utilised.
Moreover, in its product catalogue, S3-TAU also includes solutions asinnovative as Keraon, the first ceramic based material for outdoorfurnishings, which may even be combined with Civis’Termia, so that whena user sits on a bench or leans on a table in the dining area, s/he finds it at
the perfect temperature.
Likewise, S3-TAU specialists are working on incorporating intelligenthumidification to these proposals for temperature control systems, in such away that the environment is not only heated but purified.
In a nutshell, S3-TAU offers restaurants, bars, cafeterias and hotels thebest solution on the market for building their outdoor dining areas, thusproviding an integrated solution to the demand that has arisen amongconsumers due to the no-smoking law that neither detracts from the qualityor image of the establishment nor reduces the services or well-being ofcustomers. Design, comfort and intelligence are now possible in al frescodining areas, thanks to S3-TAU.
