The “Plácido Castelo” Stadium, popularly known as “Castelão”, was renovated for the 2014 FIFA World Cup and became the first Brazilian Stadium to obtain the LEED “Green” certification. The Palram team’s solution for the project was based on 9 meter SUNTUF sheets that span the entire roof length, which provided elegant appearance without overlap shading and reduced the risk of leakage.
