Norwood have a very strong track record of delivering projects for the Advanced Manufacturing sector, including development of bespoke products such as machine enclosures, waterproof cells, and removable walk-on ceilings.
Norwood utilise the Mediline system, a bespoke modular partition solution that is demountable and fully relocatable, allowing future adaptation with a minimal business interruption. The Mediline system provides varying levels of acoustic and fire performance. Additionally, it’s finished with a PVC laminate resistant to most hazardous chemicals, including VHPs, perfect for the Advanced Manufacturing scetor. Norwood have recently completed projects for several blue chip customers within the industry, including Medicom, Jaguar Land Rover, and Orthoplastics.
Our products undergo extensive laboratory tests, to achieve the best air permeability, acoustic and fire ratings, VHP resistance and the partition finish efficiency against various microorganisms
Norwood’s system is flexible, giving the client opportunity to make changes during the construction period and, even more importantly, in the future to meet their ever-changing requirements.
We work closely with our clients to develop products tailored to their individual requirements
JLR planned a £500m investment for their first in-house engine manufacturing facility. Opened in 2014 by Her Majesty, it currently produces Ingenium petrol and 400,000 diesel engines a year. Norwood worked with Interserve when delivering this ground-breaking project, which was the most significant project Norwood had ever undertaken, demonstrating the company’s growth and success. The overall project won the Regeneration award at the the RICS Awards Grand Final.
The main challenge was to provide a 120Min fire-rated demountable compartment wall at eleven meters high. Norwood teamed up with Interserve, developing their 200mm Mediline system, which was subjected to excessive laboratory testing to achieve the 120Min Fire Rated certification. In addition to solid partitions, Norwood provided a 90Min fire-rated nine-meter high glazed partition wall which provided a viewing gallery from the grand reception onto the manufacturing floor.
