Inbras, Inowrocław

The Inbras headquarters is a production-and-office building.

Aerial view of the Inbras building — the flat roof of the production hall with dome skylights, the office section with parking, and farmland in the background.

The Inbras headquarters is a production-and-office building. The building consists of a 1,053 m² production hall and a 516 m² social/office section forming the building’s front. The facade, especially on the Poznańska Street side, was shaped homogeneously, blurring the functional divisions and creating, on the western and southern sides, a unified volume with a horizontal band of glazing running the full length of the elevation. The front facade, kept within a modular grid of divisions, is broken up by a distinctive dark-navy recess marking the entrance zone.

The office building’s volume screens the internal courtyard and maneuvering yard. Besides sandwich panels, the facade uses aluminum joinery, fiber-cement boards, and translucent multi-wall polycarbonate panels, complemented by navy-blue render and wood-look HPL panels. The building is equipped with mechanical ventilation with heat recovery, LED lighting, an energy-efficient boiler room and heating units, and structural cabling together with an electronic control, access, and monitoring system.

Front of the office section with a dark navy entrance arcade, timber cladding by the door, and ribbon glazing on the upper floor above the empty parking lot. Corner of the building linking the glazed office section with the production hall — the navy entrance recess, the Inbras logo, and a green space with low planting. Elongated facade of the Inbras production hall with the illuminated logo at the corner, a dark plinth, ribbon windows, and a lawn with a pond in the foreground.
