Public Buildings

For over 25 years, La Foca House has been building high energy performance public wooden buildings, designing and constructing solutions for every type of use:

• Schools
• Multipurpose and conference centers
• Healthcare facilities
• Religious buildings

The advantages of green building in the public sector are clear:

• Reduced construction times
• Healthy, welcoming, and comfortable environments
• High energy efficiency (Class A and above)
• Savings on management and maintenance costs

Our experience allows us to successfully participate in public tenders of any size, guaranteeing high quality and performance standards at every stage, from design to assembly.
Schools: safety, comfort, and health
A school is the place where children spend a fundamental part of their development.
For this reason, the environment must be:

• Safe (compliant with REI 30, 60, 90, 120 fire resistance standards)
• Healthy and free of polluting materials
• Welcoming for students, teachers, and families

At La Foca, we build school facilities in full compliance with Eurocodes 1, 5, and 8, offering solutions that combine technical performance and living comfort.
Hospitals: well-being and environmental quality
A key example of our expertise is the Grenoble Oncology Center, one of the most advanced in southeastern France.
In this project:

• Environmental comfort was prioritized
• Cement and bricks were replaced with natural wood
• A healing atmosphere was created for patients and healthcare workers

The project received official recognition at both regional and national levels from the French authorities, reinforcing our position as pioneers in public green building.
