BetaPort System
Worldwide | since 2021

Designed as the world’s first all timber airport, the building re-interprets its typology as open communal place in the middle of the Alps and in close proximity to the city of Innsbruck. The multifunctional building houses the not only the arrival and departure, but a multitude of retail, offices and amenity spaces as well as a marketplace and public promenade. Beta Realities designed the new main terminal building of the Innsbruck Airport as transformative spatial system with a focus on sufficiency and circular material strategies.

Revolutionary building technology.

BetaPort provides the world's first scalable and circular building system on-demand. With the circular technology buildings allow change over time, can adapt to various site conditions at no extra costs and are being able to be efficiently built back and reused. A product-based approach to building allow for cost efficiency and for long-term return on investment in all aspects of the value chain.

Smart buildings made from intelligent blocks.

BetaPort is a certified and patented building technology. Every element is tested and quality checked in the factory to guarantee a great product. On site all elements are fast and easy to assemble.

Designed for a circular and carbon-zero lifestyle.

BetaPort applies a circular building approach using renewables with material passports. The design for disassembly approach enables us to offter mobility hubs as subscription models  (BetaPort as a Service - BAaS).

First prototype:
BetaPort ONE

The first BetaPort was release at GREENTECH FESTIVAL 2021 at Berlin's Heeresbäckerei. The demonstrator proofed the kit of parts logic and reusability of the building system for single story buildings.

Multi-story prototype:
BetaPort NEXT

The second stage system development for multi-story building up to three floors and German building class III was released at GREENTECH FESTIVAL 2022 at Berlin Tegel Airport (TXL). For the first time facades were implemented in German KfW and GEG standards.
