Caunton Engineering are supplying the structural steelwork for two major warehouses in South Normanton for main contractor Buckingham Group Contracting. The client is Panattoni, one of the world’s largest industrial developers, and the site is the Panattoni Park J28. This development will provide over 575,000 sq. ft. of Grade A warehouse space, in two units, and is located at M1/J28. ( M1/J28 is one of the most important logistics locations in the East Midlands, as it is almost equidistant between Birmingham and Manchester, the UK’s second and third largest cities.)

The two units will be 345,000 sq. ft. and 230,000 sq. ft. respectively. Both will benefit from 15m clear internal height, two storey hub offices and 50M yards. Both will achieve BREEAM ratings of ‘Very Good’. It is expected both units will be available for occupation by Q1 2023.

Caunton Engineering is designing, fabricating and erecting nearly 2000 tonnes of structural steelwork for the two buildings. The photograph shows the first building under construction.

The company has recently supplied the structural framing for two major warehouse projects - in Borehamwood in 2021 and in Basildon in 2019 - again for Panattoni, also for main contractor Buckingham Group Contracting – and you can see details of the Basildon contract on Caunton web site news 8th November 2019. The company is very pleased to be working again for this team.
