A Perfect Fit for Pass.
Traditional Baking and an Energy-Optimized Facility.
For the family-owned business Bäckerei Pass, known for handcrafted baked goods in the Düsseldorf region since 1962, Vollack delivered a two-story addition with approximately 1,100 square meters of gross floor area directly connected to the existing building. One challenge was the limited space available, which was used according to operational requirements. The solidly constructed ground floor accommodates goods receiving, bread roll production, the pastry department, and cold storage facilities. The upper floor, built using a lightweight hall construction method, provides office, social, and training spaces.
Construction during ongoing operations.
The addition helped optimize existing production processes. Interior construction was carried out using lean methods, enabling an efficient and accelerated implementation.
Save energy and reduce costs.
The building meets the KfW Efficiency House 55 standard and therefore requires only 55 percent of the primary energy of a comparable conventional new building. The technical building systems include a heat recovery unit that makes productive use of heat generated during baking operations. This reduces energy costs and CO2 emissions. A rooftop photovoltaic system supplies approximately 15 percent of the building's electricity demand.
We want to continue playing an active role in shaping this growing market while offering our customers a broad range of high-quality baked goods. By expanding our headquarters in Düsseldorf, we are further developing our production capabilities and continuing to stay close to our loyal customer base.“
