Stoford has completed the construction of a new 90,000 sq ft state-of-the-art factory in Hampshire on behalf of Stannah.
The building, which is located on Andover Business Park, boasts strong sustainability credentials and features 24,300 sq ft of photovoltaic panels that will save a projected 206 tonnes of CO2 emissions a year compared with using electricity from the grid. The factory has achieved BREEAM Very Good and an EPC A+ rating.
Jon Stannah, managing director of Stannah Group, said: “Stoford have done a fantastic job managing the build of our new factory and we are delighted to be able to now start work on the internal fit out. Andover has been the home of the Stannah Group since we moved operations from London in 1974 and the new factory more than doubles our Andover manufacturing footprint. Our business continues to grow steadily and the additional capacity will help us serve our customers across the world more efficiently far into the future.”
Edward Peel, director at Stoford, added: “We are very pleased to have successfully delivered this high quality, sustainable building. The new facility supports Stannah’s continued growth and development, enabling it to streamline its manufacturing process. Stannah’s investment in the facility also represents a significant boost to UK manufacturing and promises to bring more jobs to the region.”
The project team included Benniman, Trinity Property Consultants, Webb Gray Architects, Link Engineering and Engineering Services Consultancy.
