Project: The Shard– London

Client: Severfield Rowen

Description: Working on what will be one of Europe's tallest and most iconic buildings meant IPCL had to liaise and integrate with a number of other sub-contractors and use a wide range of specialist access equipment in order to complete our contract works. IPCL adhered to a very demanding construction programme undertaking site remedial works to 64,000m2 of “off site” applied Intumescent coatings as well as decorative site painting works. 

Package Value: Ongoing

 

Project:Eldon Square– Newcastle Upon Tyne

Client: Sir Robert McAlpine Ltd

Description: IPCL installed 30,000m2 of Glasroc Firecase Encasement system to provide 120 minute fireprotection. The city centre location of the site dictated that the ramifications of cutting this quantity of board to size was both a major health and environmental issue. We came up with an innovative idea and had the materials supplied to site pre-cut. Logistically it was a major exercise but, only 8 skips were required for waste material for the entire project and the offcuts from the manufacturing process were recycled by the manufacturer at source. An environmental triumph!

Package Value: £1,045,000.00

 

Project: Heron Tower—London

Client: Skanska

Description: Decorative painting works to eight scenic lifts and two feature staircases on this forty six storey office block. IPCL had to undertake the works out of normal working hours and had to utilise the lift cars in order to gain access to a percentage of the steelwork. Careful co-ordination with following trades and a pro-active approach to the challenges on the project ensured that the desired standard of finished was achieved on time and within budget.

Package Value: £815,000.00

 

Project: The Mall Blackburn

Client: Taylor Woodrow (Vinci) Ltd

Description: IPCL applied a range of systems including intumescent coatings to the  structural steelwork, fire stopping, air sealing and over 4700m2 of soffit Insulation together with a Hilti structural grid system.

Package Value: £450,000.00

 

Project: Manchester Joint Hospitals– Manchester (MRI)

Client: Bovis Lend Lease Ltd

Description: Working on this project over a three year period, IPCL undertook a range of works including intumescent coatings, fire boarding, fire stopping, acoustic and air sealing, and mastic joints. The construction duration of this state of the art hospital gave IPCL the opportunity to recruit and train a local workforce to work alongside our established management and supervision team. We have subsequently employed a regional manager for the North West to maximise our investment in the area.

Package Value: £2,950,000.00

 

 

Project:Whiston & St Helens Hospital—North West

Client: Taylor Woodrow (Vinci) Ltd

Description: Firestopping & Acoustic sealing to service penetrations and air sealing to perimeters. These new build hospitals over two sites were mainly concrete frame and no structural protection was required. One problem which arose involved a UPVC pipework system running above suspended ceiling level which required a flexible fireprotection solution. A fire curtain conventionally used for dividing ceiling voids was assessed, fire tested and installed  around the pipes to give a cost effective and unique solution and avoid delays to the project.

Package Value: £2,350,000.00
