Stancold's CREST team, which specialises in cleanroom builds, has expanded its service offering into bi-panel partitioning solutions.
The new service is being offered owing to the MIDDAS bi-panel system.
As a part of the continued development of CREST’s range of services, CREST has recently completed its first non-progressive cleanroom envelope build, following training and familiarisation with the MIDDAS system.
“Bouygues brought us on board with specification & layout almost confirmed between themselves, the specified panel manufacturer, MIDDAS, and the customer," said Mark Kendrick, CREST’s Business Development Director.
Even with the above agreed upon, Kendrick explained that CREST conducted multiple site surveys to advise on buildability from a cleanroom envelope specialist point of view. He further added that the scope also required alterations within the existing lab and included a one-hour fire-rated wall, something best left to partitioning specialists to advise on.
“The client knows our capabilities – this was a project not many subcontractors could successfully take on," said Lee Duffield, CREST Construction Director. “Not only was it a live site, but it included many different elements – the lab fit out itself, a firewall, complex layout of lining panels, reveals, and on top of everything, breaking into the existing clean area to reconfigure it. All of it within a fast-track programme.”
The installation team completed the extension in 6 weeks proving its versatility in intricate projects.
