Indurent completes 148,000 sq ft Rolls Royce facility



Indurent has completed a 148,000 sq ft warehouse facility for Rolls Royce, with the Derby site now handed over to the engineering giant.


The bespoke storage facility is located at Indurent Park Derby and has been built with a BREEAM ‘Excellent’ accreditation and EPC rating of ‘A’.

Working closely with Rolls Royce, Indurent included a single 12m high door in the warehouse as well as a 100-ton capacity crane for the movement of valuable heavy parts.

The facility is equipped with 1MV of power with solar panels installed on its roof, and the installation of bespoke climate control and lighting systems.

Winvic Construction was the lead contractor for Indurent on the unit, supported by Wakemans as project manager.

Indurent Park Derby is a 50-acre industrial park which also hosts heat pump manufacturer Vaillant and Swedish medtech company Getinge.

Kia has also established their national base on the site for training and development associated with its electrical vehicle range.

“We are extremely proud to complete and hand over this state-of-the-art facility for Rolls-Royce, a globally-renowned company which is at the forefront of innovation in manufacturing,” said Rob Richardson, development director at Indurent.
 
“The arrival of Rolls-Royce to Indurent Park Derby adds to the cluster of high-tech R&D and manufacturing businesses in Derby and underlines that the development of versatile industrial and logistics space, with the availability of a large amount of power, is critical for supporting high-growth sectors, creating a diverse mix of employment and boosting local economies.”

Terry Meighan, infrastructure director at Rolls Royce, added: “The project was delivered on time and on budget but, most importantly, it was done safely. This facility is key to delivering our wider site redevelopment work and is the first of our significant builds to be completed.”
