Covid-19 measures – fresh air

The Studio has been completed with COVID prevention measures in mind. A modern mechanical heat recovery ventilation system provides complete air replacement every 15 minutes

Covid-19 measures – hygiene

Hygiene stations are present at the studio entrance. Separate bathroom facilities for crew and talent. And if required the viewing gallery can be used to completely physically separate talent on the soundstage, and backstage crew, with remote camera, audio and lighting operation available.
