Navet swimming centre

In the centre of Umeå, our Navet property houses a swimming pool, gym and car park.

Navet was opened in 2016 and offers swimming, exercise, health and other experiences in a central and easily accessible location. Would you like to know more about the various activities at Navet? You can find links under the heading Navet’s activities.

With the environment in focus

Navet is supported by solid environmental and quality work. For example, heat is recovered from the water and air. Through ultrafiltration, 70-80% of the bathing water is also recycled and, when the pool is not in use, the height-adjustable bottoms slide up and settle a few centimetres above the water’s surface to avoid heat loss. Everything is centrally controlled by computers that coordinate the technical systems with each other.

Accessibility as a keyword

A great deal of attention has been paid to accessibility for people with disabilities. The entire swimming centre is adapted so that everyone can use the bathing facilities.

Final place in Building of the Year

Navet was nominated for Building of the Year 2017 by Svensk Byggtjänst and Byggindustrin magazine. The building reached the final as one of Sweden’s five best construction projects.

Architecture: Erséus Arkitekter and LINK Arkitektur.

  • God Jul & Gott Nytt År Vi vill passa på att tacka för året som gått och önskar alla våra samarbetspartners, kollegor, familjer och vänner en riktigt God Jul och ett Gott Nytt År.
  • Nu är Umeås första publika laddstation för tunga fordon invigd Strax efter 10.30-tiden i dag fyllde Umeås kommunalråd Hans Lindberg det första fordonet med energi från den nya laddstationen på Västerslätt. Det markerade öppningen av vad som är ett efterlängtat tillskott i Umeå.
    – Det här är ett stort och viktigt steg framåt i vår strävan att möjliggöra helt elektrifierade logistikkedjor. Etableringen i Umeå ger goda förutsättningar för framtiden, menar han.
