A ship-deck to start the journey again

Let's go together!
05/18/2020

We believe that after experiencing the actual difficult situation, we will return stronger than before only staying all together and we are excited that the first project we awarded "after lockdown" is the prestigious Italian iconic Genoa bridge, symbol of a Country that does not give up and push ahead.

Nuova Defim Orsogril is going to produce the flooring grating specified in the project resulting from the joint venture between Fincantieri and Salini Impregilo.

We like to think that each of the 5.000 Nuova Defim Orsogril grating panels of this project can be a "LONG LIVE ITALY" unifying us in the restart.

The bridge designed by Renzo Piano is joining two areas of Genoa city and it looks like a schi's hull; this is 1.067 meters long, consists of 67.000 cubic meters of concrete and 24.000 tons of steel, its metal structure is 3 time the Tour Eiffel weight and has an overall height of 1.500 meters, almost 2 times taller than the BurJ Khalifa skyscraper in Dubai (off ground and underground).

Nuova Defim Orsogril's framed and bespoke cut to size grating panels made by Potissimum mesh 22x77 mm, flat bar 70x3 mm, co-designed by Nuova Defim Orsogril Technical Office and Fincantieri Infrastructure SpA, will be used for the two pedestrian walkways on the roadway sides.

And now we can't wait to run across it to resume our journey together!
