To obtain optimal climate conditions in all areas/rooms of the stadium, colaval was selected as the supplier of high efficient control and balancing valves, to the Aviva "State of the Art" stadium in Dublin, Ireland. All valves were supplied through Advanced Technical Products Ltd.
Lansdowne Road has been used as a venue for sporting activities since 1872. The first rugby international was played there in 1878, while the stadium also became home to the Irish soccer team in the 1980s.
It had been acknowledged for some time that the old Lansdowne Road stadium was no longer suitable for international sport. It did not meet the needs, nor the expectations of today’s major sporting occasions or of the Irish sporting public, that has been exposed to modern stadiums all over the world.

The new Aviva Stadium, at Lansdowne Road, has been designed to be a state-of-the-art modern stadium, which, on completion, will have an all seated capacity of 50,000. There will be 10,000 seats at premium level and a further 1,500 at box level. In addition to this there will be 38,500 standard seats.
