Sprinkler Protection to a UK leading grocery chain’s new 505,000 square feet flagship regional distribution facility at Omega Park Warrington.
The system is providing protection throughout this new facility including roof protection, in rack protection, cold store and freezer protection, Lithium – ION battery charging area protection and Deluge systems to the waste recycling machinery.
Our Project Manager, Chris Spence, said “this has been a demanding and fast track project , the building was a spec build shed , so the initial pace of design development and installing the roof system was super-fast as we needed to be 1st in an out of the way of other contractors, it’s been a real pleasure to work on this project , where all contractors are well respected and supported from the main contractor and the customer.”
Our Customer said…
Having worked with H&K on the past 2 schemes – I have nothing but positive accolades to present. The most recent scheme was Project Managed by Chris Spence who is an absolute legend. A great understanding of scope and of regs that were required to be met.
Neil worked on the design and always met programme requirements and coordinated with other trades seamlessly. Nothing was too much for H&K. The programme was always achieved and was treated with the respect other contracts don’t always show. Handing over areas sequentially on time and tested. Hand over was seamless and Chris was always on hand whenever the client needed attention. Having worked with multiple sprinkler designers and installers – Hall & Kay are the most professional, reliable, and friendly out of all of them!!
