The standard of finish required on the production area was very high with all walls being constructed of PVC coated hygiene panels & floor finishes in a 9mm thick high grade epoxy finish draining to stainless steel floor gullies. The mechanical, electrical and refrigeration installation required a high standard of finish and a high level of co-ordination to ensure that all services were installed to meet very strict hygiene regulations.
