Manufacturing

Prefabricated buildings and canopies

We provide a wide range of manufacturing canopies and domes, as well as modular buildings and steel framed structures, to give you total flexibility. Our prefabricated, re-locatable, lightweight solutions provide a fast, cost-effective alternative to renting new factory space or building conventional permanent structures.

For manufacturing companies, dealing with fluctuations in demand from month to month and year to year can be a delicate balancing act, especially when it comes to warehouse and working space.

You need to be adaptable – ready to deal with increases in workload at a moment’s notice – but you also need to keep costs down, especially in times of economic uncertainty when margins are under pressure.  Our canopies are a cost-efficient solution and can usually be designed, ready for operations within eight weeks. Installation time can be just a few days for smaller structures, while our domes take less than two weeks to erect.

Canopies or Steel Clad structures engineered to exacting standards

If you need to expand your working area but don’t have the funds for a full-scale building project or perhaps require more space to store manufacturing equipment and don’t want the commitment of laying down foundations in a particular location, a fully re-locatable, temporary building solution that has the potential to be a permanent fixture could be the answer.

Our domed structures are available in standard or bespoke sizes and are suitable for a wide range of operations on any scale.  Fixed structures can accommodate large machinery and vehicles or for full flexibility, the telescopic domes can enable crane access.  Both require minimal or no foundations, so are quick and easy to install and can be custom-designed with various door openings, as well as heating and lighting systems.

 

Steel clad buildings for use in manufacturing

The steel clad structures use a galvanised steel framework to which we attach panels, single skin or insulated PIR composite steel sheets. These buildings are corrosion-free and completely weather-tight, conforming to British Standards Building Regulations for snow and wind loadings.  Lightweight and structurally sound, they are also fire resistant and can be soundproofed, enabling you to meet health and safety requirements and minimise noise pollution.

Wight Shipyard Co.

Wight Shipyard Co is Europe’s leading high-speed craft and aluminium ship builder.

With business booming in 2019, they required an additional structure to be installed on their existing premises, which would enable them to double their boat building capacity.
