Batumi Harbour Hotel

The 16-storey, 280-room hotel on the Batumi seafront was Rasyo's first major export project. With the Black Sea's wet and windy climate, watertightness was set as the most critical performance criterion.

What we installed

• CW50 stick facade, 6,400 m², water class RE1200
• 280 S160 TB thermally broken sliding balcony doors
• An F75 folding restaurant front on the ground floor

Logistics

Profiles were machined and numbered in Bursa, and glass and panels were shipped in 46 truckloads through the Sarp border crossing. Installation was completed in 24 weeks by a 14-strong Rasyo crew with local support staff, using safety instructions in Turkish and Georgian on site.

The project laid the foundations of Rasyo's international project management; the checklists prepared for customs, shipping and local compliance are still used on later export projects.
