Molson Coors - Project Update

March 7, 2025

Final touches are being completed at Molson Coors new offices in Burton, ready for practical completion handover on Monday.

Refurbishment and extension of the former National Brewery Centre into Molson Coors new headquarters.

Our works included the replacement of existing and new drainage, ducting, floor slab renewal, internal drainage connections, new paving, street furniture supply & install, remedial works to the car park including replacing the defective sub base, tarmac road base and binder.

We think it looks great and will hopefully be enjoyed by employees & guests for years to come.

TASK - Project Update

January 30, 2025

Despite the wet weather, Phase 1 handover of the concrete circulation road is still on target.

This will enable the possession of the current access route for the building platform preparation, bases to be dug & the steel frame to be erected.

We are making good use of time on site without other frame contractors to get as much of the external yard installed in advance, providing a safe laydown and access routes to follow on trades.

Infinity Park - Kerb Extruder

August 29, 2024

As part of our drive to always improve our practices and generate greater efficiencies, when we were required to install a kerb brace for the S38 works at Infinity Park Derby to adoptable standards, rather than utilising traditional road-forms we were able to let the works to PDK Kerb Extrusion. Working with our machine in attendance we were able to vastly improve on our expected outputs & improve on a tight programme.
