The website in one pass

Animated hero of quarzsandwerke.de with a dump truck, an excavator and the headline “Quarzsand und Mutterboden ab Werk”
Motion design A full pass through quarzsandwerke.de: from the scroll-driven hero of 3D rendering, photography and AI imagery to products, test reports and the animated directions.

One partnership, many projects

The website is not where it started but the latest chapter. The partnership began with the technology on the works site. Today, B³ Quarzsandwerke has one contact for cameras, the scale, workstations and the web.

  1. Security cameras

    Installation and ongoing administration of the security cameras on the works site.

  2. Truck scale weighing software

    Setup of the DoProfi weighing software at the vehicle scale where every truckload is weighed.

  3. Laptops and workstations

    Procurement, setup and handover of the laptops, ready to use from day one.

  4. Hosting and domain

    Domain, hosting, SSL certificate and ongoing updates from one partner.

  5. New website

    Latest project

    The latest project: a website with motion design, clear structure and short load times.

On top of that come the everyday IT tasks, from new accounts to quick help when something gets stuck.

The website: premium, animated, fast

The new website had to show the works as it is: big, dusty and impressive. The hero blends 3D rendering, photography and imagery created with the latest AI models into a film sequence that plays as you scroll.

Beneath the surface, the site is clearly structured: six products with grain size, use case and a test report as PDF, a dedicated soil recycling page, a guide for truck drivers from the entry to the exit scale, the history of the Bücker, Blass and von Bormann families, plus directions and contact.

Scroll-driven hero film

3D rendering, photography and AI-generated imagery merged into a sequence that follows your scroll.

Typography in motion

Large headlines build letter by letter as you scroll; content glides calmly into view.

Fast despite the motion

Optimized image sequences and lean code: a Lighthouse performance score of 100 (desktop).

Directions as a scroll story

The map moves with you.

Hardly any truck driver finds the entrance of a sand pit at the first attempt. So the website tells the way in step by step: as you scroll, the route draws itself on the map, from the motorway to the gate.

  1. 01 A43 to exit 7
  2. 02 Towards Sythen
  3. 03 Right after 700 metres
  4. 04 On to the entrance

The directions section on quarzsandwerke.de: the route builds up as you scroll.
  • A route you scroll along

    Each step of the directions moves the map a little further.

  • A custom map

    Drawn from OpenStreetMap data in the look of the brand.

  • No Google Maps embed

    No cookies and no third parties when the page loads.

  • Coordinates for the sat nav

    Copy them or open them straight in a navigation app.
