Glodon has always been dedicated to practising its digital building strategy. From the Glodon(Xi'an) R&D Building to the new Headquarters, the company is on track to develop pilot digital buildings that are people-centric and function-centred through digitalization, green and industrial construction and operation.

The construction of the new Headquarters will focus on key steps of the digital construction from design to construction. Some technical highlights of the project are:

      Based on the independent graphics platform and products to apply BIM throughout the whole process of the project;

      Based on the independent underlying data platform to realize the whole process data exchange;

      Based on the core management results to achieve the whole process business collaboration;

      Based on the IoT network with self-developed hardware and business data collaboration to promote the interaction between reality and virtuality.

With a design concept of openness and flexibility, the Headquarters will become an immersive, green and healthy office building for people to engage and thrive after completion. There will be a shared public living room on the ground floor; Inside the building, corridors and flexible shared spaces facilitate people-to-people exchanges in a pleasant environment.
