These Featured Projects have been selected from many of Astral's recently-completed and ongoing projects to provide a glimpse of the diversity of facilities Astral builds and the diversity of its clients.
Olympic Pool & Sports Complex
Defence Housing Authority (DHA), Lahore awarded this project to Astral in 2014. The project involved the construction of only the third Olympic-sized swimming pool in Pakistan (and the first covered and heated one!) along with associated sports/recreation facilities. The project is located in Phase 5 of DHA Lahore. In addition to the civil works, this project involved sophisticated pre-engineered building works for covering the pool and complex plumbing, mechanical and electrical works using state-of-the-art equipment for a covered and heated swimming pool facility. The project required specialized expertise in construction as well as installation of sophisticated pool and event management equipment.
Astral was selected for this project through a competitive bidding process conducted by DHA Lahore and awarded on the basis of the lowest price. This demonstrates Astral's ability to price projects of such sophistication lower than competitors by maximizing benefits from proper planning, fine-tuned procurements and efficient execution; a normal practice within Astral.
