Our project for BioCork 2 involved the construction of a new production facility, as well as the expansion of its existing warehouse, canteen, laboratories, offices, waste water treatment plant, central utilities and car parking.
Focus on quality was a key deliverable on this project. The facility delivers products that will be consumed by patients, so the quality of manufacture and cleanliness of the manufacturing space is critical to this process. We were 100% compliant throughout the project with both the site IPPC licence, policed by the EPA, and Johnson & Johnson environmental requirements.
Waste diverted from landfill exceeded the project target of 95%, energy and water-use monitoring were less than allocated target and we achieved Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Silver certification in excess of the project target. Innovation in our construction methodology ensured lean, efficient and cost-effective processes and construction methodologies were adapted.
