Condair is proud to protect priceless exhibits and ensure visitor comfort with advanced Condair DL hybrid humidification solutions that deliver precise, hygienic and energy-efficient climate control.

More about Condair DL

The German Historical Museum

Located on Unter den Linden in Berlin’s historic centre, the Deutsches Historisches Museum (DHM) combines the baroque Zeughaus (Germany’s oldest building on the boulevard, 1730) with I.M. Pei’s striking glass-and-granite exhibition hall (opened 2006).

The Zeughaus hosts the permanent exhibition “German History in Images and Artifacts” across 8,000 m², while Pei’s light-filled spiral is used for major temporary shows. Together they welcome hundreds of thousands of visitors each year, right beside UNESCO-listed Museum Island.

To protect fragile artefacts – textiles, paper, paintings and wood – in both the 300-year-old Zeughaus and the modern hall, the DHM relies on Condair hybrid humidifiers for precise, hygienic and bacteria free humidity control year round.

Condair DL

The Condair DL is the next generation of the Condair Dual2, the world's most successful system for adiabatic humidification. Its hygienic credentials have proven successful in practice and were verified and certified by independent organisations with public responsibility.

Hybrid humidification relies exclusively on the advantages of atomisation and evaporation. This results in the sustainable resolution of key problems which can emerge when these technologies are used in isolation. The humidification system is therefore the first choice in terms of hygiene, energy-efficiency and cost-effectiveness.

Allianz-Arena, Munich

The Allianz Arena was one of the most controversial construction projects, even prompting a public vote by Munich citizens. It has since become a central landmark in northern Munich and an architectural symbol of the city. Particularly striking is the translucent, diamond-shaped outer shell, which can glow in different colors.

Using projectors and asymmetrical parabolic mirrors developed specifically for the Allianz Arena, the diamonds can be illuminated in different colors depending on the club's colors. The stadium is around 50 meters high, 200 meters long, and can accommodate 66,000 spectators. Condair RS steam humidifiers ensure optimum humidity levels.
