St. Modwen Park Access 18 Avonmouth required more than 20,000 linear metres of Building Systems UK’s Trisobuild® site assembled, roof and wall systems at their new high-spec warehouse space. A range of smaller units from 5,924 - 25,169sq ft have been completed and are available for immediate occupation. Further units will be delivered during 2023, ranging from 43,000sq ft - 204,000sq ft.
For Units 23, 24 and 25 Building Systems UK products were installed across over 20,000 linear metres of the building envelope using the Trisobuild® System. The project also houses office areas and meeting rooms.
As part of Units 23, 24 and 25 development St Modwen’s required a solution that can cater for various requirements in order to help secure occupants of any sector that may wish to reside within. Some of the current local occupiers around the site include organisations such as Amazon, ASDA, Peugeot, Evri, Co-Op and many more.
With a wide array of varying needs it was important that the building envelope could accommodate for any of these particular organisation types and also provide a highly aesthetically pleasing exterior for the local area and appeal to potential suiters.
With St Modwen’s key goal being about ‘creating sustainable commercial developments to benefit all involved’ it was vital a building envelope solution was utilised. With real estate at a premium it was also imperative the system could be installed efficiently and quickly in order to get the units filled as soon as possible.
Building Systems UK (A Tata Steel Enterprise), worked with the supply chain and were able to offer them a wide range of responsibly sourced, sustainable roofing and walling products from one single source UK manufacturer. This enabled the creation of an optimum building envelope solution to meet structural, energy efficiency and air tightness requirements, as well as offering a wide choice of aesthetic colours and finishes to create the visual impact required.
Building Systems UK’s, Trisobuild® site assembled roofing and cladding system was chosen with over 12,000 linear metres used for the roof and nearly 8,000 linear metres to form the walls. The Trisobuild® system can be tailored to meet the specific requirements of a project by offering design flexibility of internal and external profiles ranging from 19mm to 46mm deep. For this project, R32 and C32 and CL19 profiles were chosen for most of the roof and wall profiles resp
