More about the project Residential high-rise DS 90 in Vienna (AT)
The striking residential high-rise DS 90 with its 262 flats and 120 serviced apartments, is located in the new Nordwestbahnhof quarter of Vienna.
The S+B Group is managing the project, constructing a prestigious building here for new owner Greystar.
The entire building will be low-energy construction. The building will be heated and cooled by thermally active floor slabs. Photovoltaics on the roof will produce part of the electricity required.
This project marked the first use of the highly sound-insulated Geberit Silent-Pro SuperTube drainage system , which does not require bypasses.
Project overview
Residential high-rise with 28 floors
The building with 382 residential units on 28 floors places additional demands on the drainage system.
Geberit Silent-Pro SuperTube as the solution
Thanks to the SuperTube technology, the drainage stack could be installed in a space-saving manner. The highly sound-insulating pipes ensure a quiet living space.
Only one stack per duct
Only one waste water line is required per duct, which drains all the bathrooms and toilets connected to it. The secondary ventilation pipe is not needed.
Room height gains
1.5 metres less room height in the area of the collector pipes with connection to the sewer pipe in the entrance area.
Customer testimonial
“With a conventional drainage system, up to 1.5 metres of room height would have been lost in the entrance area due to the required inclination of the discharge pipe. Thanks to Geberit Silent-Pro SuperTube, this pipe can now run horizontally for up to six metres and only then requires a slope.”

The brief Drainage of a residential high-rise building
Due to the the number of floors and the height, the drainage of the DS 90 residential high-rise building placed various challenging demands on the waste water technology:
- High drainage capacity due to the many bathrooms and WCs.
- An additional bypass line due to the prohibited connection zones in the area of the direction change.
- A slope for the collector pipes
With a conventional drainage system the realisation of these high standards would have been almost impossible.
The Geberit solution Geberit Silent-Pro SuperTube
Together with the contractor ESW Gebäudetechnik, the S+B Group opted for the new Geberit Silent-Pro SuperTube drainage system. It offers some unbeatable advantages, especially in multi-floor residential buildings:
- Despite the height of the building and the number of residential units, only one stack is needed per duct, with no parallel ventilation pipe.
- In the area of the direction change, there is no need for a bypass for the prohibited connection zone.
- With the horizontal pipes of up to 6 metres without a slope, 1.5 metres of room height can be saved in the area of the collector pipes.
- Easier planning of the drainage system
- Easy installation
Geberit Silent-Pro SuperTube is highly sound-insulating and thus fulfils the standardised specifications for sound insulation.

Alamein Towers with Geberit PE SuperTube
New Alamein City comprises 18 towers with up to 44 floors. Thanks to the SuperTube technology, the 164 discharge stacks originally planned for drainage could be reduced to 54 stacks. This created more living space, saved on materials, and reduced installation time.
Sobha Hartland, Dubai
Luxury needs space – and SuperTube creates it. With narrow drainage ducts, the developers of Sobha Hartland in Dubai can maximise the available living space. The project is the first in Dubai with SuperTube, which meant that some additional administrative procedures were necessary.
