Makrolon sheets shape National Stadium in Romania
In Bucharest, the capital of Romania, a new National Stadium is currently under construction and planned to be completed at the end of 2010. The architectural design with its eye-catching cabriolet roof of Makrolon sheets from Bayer Sheet Europe, evokes memories of the Commerzbank in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. The stadium is named after Lia Manoliu, a discus thrower who won a gold medal at the 1968 Olympic Games in Mexico and died in 1998. With its innovative architecture, the new stadium fits well in the line-up of modern sports arenas.
