Client :  Sonae (UK) Ltd

Principal Contractor : Alfred McAlpine Ltd

Approx Value : £75M

 

Project :

 

Construction of ‘cutting edge technology’ Particle Board Mill, from inception to handover to client.  This key manufacturing facility has bucked the recent trend of upgrading older Mills, in favor of this major investment milestone for the Knowsley area in Merseyside.  The plant is capable of processing virgin logs along with imported chip and recycled waste in varying measures.  The design uses the vast knowledge base that has been built up in house, within what is now acknowledged as the leading particle board manufacturer in the world.

 

Duties :

 

PCS’s involvement can only be described as truly multi disciplined.  As a follow up to previously completed successful Projects in Portugal and South Africa PCS were invited by the client to undertake all the pre engineering, and source a suitable site for manufacture.  During the construction phase PCS acted for and on behalf of Sonae (UK) as the client agent.

 

Upon completion PCS has provided the resource to establish a successful Project Department integrating seamlessly with the Mills production requirements.

 

During a recent construction Project worth £5m approx PCS acted as Project Manager, Health and Safety Coordinator, Principal Contractor and Planning Supervisor.  All statutory body approvals were sought and obtained including negotiations with Planning, Building Control, HSE, Environment Agency, Environmental Health and Fire Authorities.  PCS are currently obtaining Planning permission for further major Projects. 

 

All disciplines were undertaken and have reinforced PCS’s standing as a leading turnkey Management and Installation Contractor within the Particle Board, Pulp, Paper and Board sectors.

Client :  Bridgewater Paper Company Ltd

Managing Contractor : Fluor Daniel Ltd

Approx Value : £32M

 

Project :

 

Construction of De-Inking Plant NO.3.  This new facility for Bridgewater Paper was designed to supplement existing facilities such that Recycled Waste would account for 98% of total production.  The process conveyed loose waste from the existing facility across a new link structure where Kroftas are located and returned finished stock to any of the three Paper Machines that production required. 

 

A new two storey Production building utilising reinforced concrete at the lower levels and steel frame at the upper was constructed on a very tight footprint, Tie-ins to existing services can only be described as extensive and complex.  

 

Duties :

 

PCS provided the resource for all Contract Engineering and Project Management of various civil, structural and architectural packages.  Contracts that were let, engineered and administered included site prep, civil phases 1 & 2, structural, mechanical, tankage, overhead cranes, Electrical, Control & Instrumentation insulation and architectural.

 

The Project was deemed a total success with stock brightness and quality exceeding anything seen before at the Mill.  Completion was both on programme and within Budget.
