The Westerhausen Grand Prix

Melle in March 2019: Exci­te­ment is in the air, because the Wester­hausen Grand Prix is just around the corner. The young drivers are ready to go, the engines are roaring, and the wild race begins. Young push car drivers streak like light­ning through the straights and at the same time learn the meaning of traffic lights and signs.

The setting for this spec­tacle is the Melos Kart Raceway – that’s the previously unused back yard at the KiTa Wester­hausen nursery. Wester­hausen is a district of the town Melle (46,000 resi­dents) not far from Osna­brück. The push car raceway opened in March 2019 with Mario Kart-like designs. Road markings

Stylemaker®

The very popular project was deve­loped very quickly with the Style­maker®. This app deve­loped by Melos enables indi­vi­dua­lised floo­ring designs. Simply and intui­tively, you can choose patterns and designs for your floo­ring layout and place an order. This makes the Style­maker® a huge help when plan­ning play areas, nurse­ries or other eye-catchers such as the entrances of sports grounds, sport halls or offices.

Using diffe­rent themes such as “Galaxy“, “Sea Life“ or even “Race Track“ and dozens of designs from animals, floor games and numbers to traffic symbols, ever­yone can develop their very own design. The chosen designs can be produced up to a maximum sixe of 150 x 150 cm. 24 colours are available.

Stylemaker® Individual

Melos also offers the possi­bi­lity of inclu­ding club or company logos, family crests, lette­ring or other custom objects in your design.

It’s enough to send in your own sket­ches, photos and ideas in photos or scans to the specia­lists at Melos. The arran­ge­ment, outlines, colour choice and the fine details are then agreed in close coor­di­na­tion with one another.

Even­tually, the final draft becomes floor art made from high quality granu­late; an indi­vi­dual, original und expres­sive solu­tion for sports clubs, schools, nurse­ries and busi­nesses.

30 square metres of the cosmos

A new safety mat under the clim­bing wall of the Harse­winkel secon­dary school has been protec­ting even the most daring clim­bers since the end of 2018. This safety mat is the result of a special colla­bo­ra­tion and offers a very unique design.

The course project “Digital Design” with the year 11s as desi­gners, toge­ther with Melos from Melle and its subsi­diary Teu2tec from Gütersloh were the project leaders. The concept and design came from the students. Melos produced the coloured plastic granu­late, and Teu2tec created high quality images for the safety mat coating from the granu­late, with the help of 3D prin­ting and 3D design.

The 30 square metre dark blue area is embel­lished with colourful motifs along the theme of space travel and the universe: an astro­naut, a UFO, a rocket, an atom, and stars.

Another colla­bo­ra­tion by this winning team is already on the cards.
