The Practice has been involved in various projects for Prysmian Cables and Systems over a number of years, mainly focussed at their Eastleigh site.

The technologies necessitate close liaison within the client team for which the Practice is ideally suited in their role as lead consultant due to their historic involvement.

The schemes for Prysmian have included both new build and refurbishment projects spanning industrial, clerical and support facilities, in all cases working within a large operational site necessitating careful coordination.

The works have included extensions and refurbishment of the high voltage test laboratory to increase both floor area and also the height of the building by 8m to permit the testing of specialist cable. A subsequent project also provided a new high voltage test laboratory, including new gantry cranes and specialist facilities.

A multi-phased refurbishment project to the main factory building has been undertaken which included replacement roof and wall cladding, all while the factory remained operational. The roof is nearly 30,000sqm in area and, as with the original wall cladding, comprised asbestos containing material which all needed to be carefully removed prior to the new roof installation.
