The Urbalad project is one of the most ambitious developments in recent decades. Phase 1 consists of the construction of the Michelin Research, Development and Innovation campus in Cébazat, on the outskirts of Clermont-Ferrand, France. With 67,000 m² of floor space, this innovative campus is designed for flexible working methods. Plafometal proposed tailor-made metal ceiling solutions that blend in perfectly with the biggest building every built in the Auvergne region.
