We were appointed by Invertek Drives to manufacture and install washroom facilities at its global HQ and manufacturing plant in Welshpool.

Invertek recently completed the construction of a 2,771sq metre extension to the global variable frequency drive manufacturing and distribution facility, which included the installation of a new mezzanine.

The expanded distribution facility will allow the company to increase its production capacity to over 1.2 million units annually, and lead to the creation of job roles in production, distribution, and manufacturing engineering to support the increased output.

In addition, the company plans to significantly expand its Innovation, Research, and Development teams to drive the creation of next-generation electric motor control technology.

The extension to the existing 5,500sq metre facility is part of a £10m investment that includes a new training centre.

No.12 Princes Dock – A glorious mix of maritime and modern

At around 100,000 ft², Building No 12 is a striking five storey office building overlooking Princes Dock and the River Mersey waterfront. This attractive building also offers spectacular views over Liverpools famous Pier Head and Liver Building. With prestigious views and a prestigious clientele, No 12 Princes Dock is a development that suits its surroundings perfectly.

When catering for the best, only the best will do and when you are also surrounded by Liverpool’s iconic three graces the Royal Liver Building, the Cunard Building and the Port of Liverpool Building there is a lot to live up to.

We were recently appointed to manufacture and install a range of products at Deyes High School in Liverpool, on behalf of Kier Construction.

The wider project involved the demolition of existing buildings on the 13-acre site (apart from the 300-student sixth form), making way for a new 110,000 sq ft facility, which includes indoor and outdoor sports facilities and a part-covered, six-court multi-use games area.

Sefton Council approved the project as part of the government’s £2 billion School Rebuilding Programme. Under the terms, the existing school was to remain in use until the replacement teaching facilities were complete.

Serving the community of Maghull and the surrounding areas, Deyes High School is an oversubscribed school, because it’s the highest-achieving school in the area, providing outstanding levels of teaching and offering exceptional opportunities for all its students.

The modern facility for 1,200 pupils will be net zero carbon once in operation.

The Wirral Growth Hub is made up of two Grade A office buildings in Birkenhead town centre. Totalling 150,000 sq ft, the BREEAM Excellent-rated office buildings have been forward funded by institutional investor Canada Life Asset Management, with Morgan Sindall Construction named as its contractor.

The two new office buildings mark a significant milestone in the transformation of Birkenhead, being the second Grade-A development in the area since the Queensgate development in 2014.

They form the central hub of an exciting new business and leisure quarter developed in the heart of Birkenhead, which will attract further significant investment and create more opportunities for local residents.

One of the two five-storey office developments will be occupied by Wirral Council, with the other available for businesses to lease.

Wirral Growth Company is a joint venture between Wirral Council and national urban regeneration specialist, Muse Developments.

The office buildings are connected by a new outdoor public realm and open, adaptable spaces for occupiers, residents and visitors to enjoy, as well as providing opportunities for events and pop-up activities stimulating the daytime and evening economy in the town centre.
