Stayen is a football stadium in Sint-Truiden, Belgium. It is the home ground of the Saint-Truiden Royal Football Club (STVV). The stadium holds 11,250. Daplast has installed new stadium seats of the A3 seats model in yellow and blue colours during the first days of May 2014.
The seats provide a new image to the entire sports venue. The company also installed VIP-seats - in total 973 Energy-seats and 63 M-espace-seats - at the VIP-area. More photos are available at this link.
The first stadium of the STVV was built in 1927. Its last renovation started in 2003 with the construction of new seating. In 2009 the second phase of the project was finished, with the opening of various shops in the complex, and the launch of the grand café, the hotel and the events hall, plus two call centers which opened for business.
The completion of the third phase will follow this spring: the new west wing of the stadium, including extra commercial space, a fitness center and a corporate restaurant. The plan also features 21 loges (hospitality boxes in the stand) which can be used, aside from viewing soccer, as hotel rooms or conference facilities. The finished stadium will be able to accommodate 14,600 spectators, including standing room for 3,530.
Stayen offers the shops — and other clients who make use of its infrastructure — a full package of services. In order to fully cover the needs of these clients, at the site, Belgacom created a private cloud based on HP servers and NetApp storage.
Stayen is the home stadium of the second-tier soccer team STVV from Saint-Truiden. Aside from a soccer venue, the site also incorporates shops, a hotel, offices and an events hall, and employs a workforce of over 1,000 people. (Stadiaworld, 27.05.2014)
