BMB 001 Cambuci – Obramax

BMB 001 Cambuci – Obramax

The Adeo Group offers building materials megastores that are known in Europe as Bricoman or Bricomart. The chain serves both professional builders and consumers on a wholesale and retail basis. The BMB 001 Cambuci, which is the company’s first store in Brazil, is located in the industrial neighborhood of Mooca in the city of São Paulo.

BMB 001 Cambuci incorporates such environmental design concepts and solutions as skylights with energy-efficient, dimmable lighting, a highly reflective building envelope, a mechanical night cooling strategy, and commissioning of the building’s systems. The night-time mechanical exhaust strategy was validated through computational thermal modelling to avoid the installation of air conditioning on the main shop floor. As a result of the interventions undertaken, the store’s monthly utility bill is projected to be reduced by more than US$6,000.

Founded in 1923, the Adeo Group has become the third largest building materials retailer in the world, with more than 700 stores and a turnover of more than 17 billion euros per year.

BMB 001 Cambuci has received final EDGE certification from thinkstep-SGS.
