Dudley’s Aluminium Confirmed for Gatwick Diamond Project

This year, it has been announced that Dudley’s Aluminium, a leading fabricator of aluminium, will be commencing on a brand new project at Gatwick Diamond for new office space. With the development looking to create revenue for emergency services on the front line, the offices are to be positioned on brownfield land, effectively allowing for the land to create new streams of revenue for important emergency operations and to effectively minimise the impact of budget cuts on the provision of service. With the Gatwick Diamond possessing what may be some of the strongest commercial prospects of any local economy in the UK, the area plays host to around forty five thousand organisations already, with the new office space looking to create a further influx in employment opportunity for the local community. As such, the development is greatly anticipated as, not only supporting core essential public services, but also in expanding the commercial traffic through the area. As for the project, the organisation has been able to confirm a £670k contract where it will see the provision of much-needed facade and glazing across the development, working alongside Metal Technology to develop curtain walling solutions for the property. These solutions are then to be integrated alongside automatic smoke vents and sliding entrance doors, providing not only a pleasant, but also efficient office environment for those working there. The project itself is expected to reach completion at a later point in the year and also serves as one of the most integral projects for Dudley’s Aluminium in the area this year. In addition to this project, however, it will also be continuing to work on its £300k project in support of the upcoming Acorn Retail Park which will, once again look to create vast amounts of employment and jobs in the area; leading retailers such as M&S and Aldi also playing a role in the development.
