Construction of new substructure and floor-slabs to facilitate the installation of a new production line.
RACKs package included concrete slabs, upper floors package and drainage. Attenuation, and the creation of the car parks to accommodate increased personnel subsequently created by the new line.
To accommodate a large privately owned fleet of delivery vehicles almost 2 acres of the site was given over to concrete yard areas, whilst precast perimeter walls and dock levellers were utilised to reduce programme. Internally polyurethane resin floors and Isoclad panelling ensured food preparation hygiene requirements were met. Extensive car parking, vehicle washing, and Biofuel storage facilities completed this modern production facility, and the site was required to remain nut and animal product free as part of the construction process. On this project most of the equipment was either electric or fuelled with HVO.
