Ullevi Press Release

Acticut International AB (publ), together with Norconsult AB, has entered into a contract to resolve the problems related to excessive vibration emissions at Gamla Ullevi (Gotherberg FC stadium, Gothernberg, Sweden). The phenomenon of excessive and structure damaging vibration transmission to nearby residential areas occurs when supporters jump up and down in the stadium, and especially behind the goal area of the home fans.  The solution will be “total system based” and utilize patented technologies to create anti-forces that in real-time, neutralize the forces of the jumping supporters. 

The contract requires that Acticut International will take part in the creation of the total system and deliver the anti-vibration control system. Acticut International has vast experience in solving vibration based challenges of this type and delivering total system solutions, together with other expert teams, is an important business strategy for the company. A team from Higab, Norconsult AB, Novoscen AB and Acticut International AB has been brought together to address the project and regular meetings will be held as the project moves forward. The system is estimated to be in place by summer 2010.
For further information, contact CEO Rolf Zimmergren (CEO) or Andreas Sigfridsson  (Project Manager).
