Rawlplug co-creates the Olympic Village, Paris 2024
To say that we are happy of our product becoming a part of the Olympic and Paralympic Village is to say nothing. Once again, one of our flagship solutions has been chosen for a prestigious construction project.
One of the world's biggest sporting events! The year 2024 will be marked by the distinctive five interlocking rings of the Olympic Games. This time, the athletes will compete in Paris – the city of love. And wherever any great sporting events take place, Rawlplug is obviously there as well!
A lasting investment meeting sustainable development standards
The Olympic and Paralympic Village is a project designed not only to meet Paris's pioneering environmental standards but also to bring social benefits long after the Olympics are over.

Did you know that…?
Several athletes from five different continents had the opportunity to share their ideas for the vision of the perfect space. As a result, a village built by athletes, for athletes, has emerged. The project will span three cities, providing accommodation for thousands of athletes from around the world. Once the Games are over, the Village will be transformed into a neighborhood with residential and service facilities as well as spacious green areas.
It is worth mentioning that the Village, apart from its modern appearance, will also meet the Parisian environmental excellence standards, aligned with the vision of low-carbon Olympic Games. This will contribute to the protection and promotion of biodiversity, through the use of materials of ecological origin.
Roofs constructed with insects and birds in mind, or plants and water in public spaces are just some examples of the solutions aimed at adapting the city to the rapidly progressing climate change.
Rawlplug concrete screws in the Paris 2024 Olympic Village
We are proud to have made our humble contribution to this project. Well, maybe not that humble, since we have delivered a thousand of our reliable concrete screws, which are the perfect solution for this type of investment.
Must-know fact!
Rawlplug concrete screws are designed to work in cracked and non-cracked concrete, both reinforced and non-reinforced. The design of the screws allows them to be used near edges and in close spacing with neighboring anchors.
Paris Olympic Village – durability for years to come
The concrete screws used in the construction of the Olympic Village for the 2024 Games have been coated with zinc flake, making them highly resistant to corrosion. This is particularly important where anchors are used to build structures expected to last for many years.
Thanks to Rawlplug products, many investments are being made around the world. We are proud of every building erected with our help.
