Lafarge, who boast 237 locations internationally, with an annual turnover of GBP1 billion, constructed a manufacturing plant for their building division on the site of the old power station.
The new manufacturing plant was purposely constructed adjacent to Ferrybridge 'C' power station, which produces Gypsum (a bi-product from the power station) to use in their plasterboard production - a more economical solution than transporting materials.
Servaccomm were asked to provide office accommodation to support the administration team, and running of the manufacturing plant.
Single-storey office accommodation was manufactured in a record six weeks off-site at Servaccomm's manufacturing plant.
The bespoke-finished modular building, with office space of approximately 1100 square metres, was transported to site and installed on prepared foundations over a period of four days.
The office accommodation provides a uniquely designed reception area, meeting rooms, senior management offices, together with a main boardroom, toilet and washroom facilities.
The building also boasts full cool/heat climate control air conditioning; IT, data and power, all contained within trunking; low energy and CATT 11 lighting to all office areas".
