A TRANSFORMATIVE STEP FORWARD

A transformative step forward for Ardmac.

In July 2024, Ardmac was acquired by Purever Industries. Ardmac’s exceptional reputation in the industry made the prospect of closer collaboration highly compelling for Purever. We have been successfully working together for years, demonstrating a strong alignment not only geographically— as Purever provides Ardmac with a solid presence in France and Iberia—but also through a unique industrial footprint, with our eight industrial sites in the UK, France, Spain, Portugal, Italy, and the USA. In recent years, Ardmac has grown to become a leading provider of clean, technical, and working environments for the life sciences, data, microelectronics, EV battery, and industrial sectors across Europe. Together with Purever, we now comprise a Group of over 1,500 people from 40 nationalities, generating revenues exceeding €500 million and operating in more than 80 countries. Purever and Ardmac share a strong alignment in values and a mutual commitment to delivering high-quality products and services that meet and exceed client expectations. We have established a new, integrated organisation that prioritises the customer experience, with processes designed to reflect this commitment.

For Purever, this integration represents an opportunity to learn from Ardmac’s success, particularly its service-focused approach, which complements Purever’s industrial culture. Ardmac’s client-centric ethos is pivotal, bringing exceptional expertise to Purever’s transformational journey. Our growth strategy is based on our expertise in providing technical solutions and delivering large-scale projects worldwide—from early-stage design to rigorous project execution—while integrating responsible manufacturing, safety, and sustainability. This creates a comprehensive global offering as we continue our shared journey of innovation and excellence. Purever aims to contribute to the quality of life on our planet through our projects and products, from food preservation throughout the food chain to Life Sciences, advanced manufacturing, and new technologies and applications. 2025 marks for Ardmac the beginning of an exciting new chapter with a fully integrated solutions approach that allows us to Design, Manufacture, and Build worldwide, bringing even greater value to our customers.

A TRANSFORMATIVE STEP FORWARD

Expanding our Horizons: Sustainable growth and new market opportunities.

As a key member of the Purever Group, Ardmac is poised to extend its presence into new markets, particularly in Southern Europe, where Purever has a strong foothold. Our focus is now on strengthening our established partnerships whilst building new client relationships in new markets, ensuring Ardmac’s technical expertise and service-first approach continue to resonate globally. The UK remains a cornerstone of Ardmac’s strategic growth strategy for the coming years. Our longstanding presence in the European Union and commitment to the UK market, despite the challenges posed by Brexit, demonstrate Ardmac’s resilience and adaptability. Following Purever’s strategy, Ardmac is becoming a global brand, aiming leadership in Europe and expansion in Asia. While we are revitalising our Singapore company, we opened new subsidiaries in France, Poland and Austria.

We see immense potential for deeper alignment with the group’s UK, Iberia and French operations.

Safety: Our First Guiding Principle.

“We have successfully embedded safety into the very core of Ardmac’s identity. It sets the tone for everything we do, everywhere we do it.” Jason Casey, Group Chief Operating Officer

Ardmac will never compromise on safety. It isn’t just a priority for us, it’s a value embedded into the very core of our business. Our approach to safety goes far beyond compliance, shaping the way we think, act, and deliver across all our projects. As we continue to grow and expand into new markets, our unwavering commitment to safety remains at the forefront of our work. It is the tool for ensuring the wellbeing of our people, our clients, and the communities we serve. A Safety Standard that Sets us Apart Ardmac’s commitment to safety is best reflected in our strong track record for safety performance. However, for us, safety isn’t just about statistics, it’s about our people. We have successfully embedded safety into every level of our organisation, creating an open and honest environment where all voices are heard. Through analysis of our comprehensive safety metrics, we know the impact we are having in this area. We believe this is a clear indicator of the proactive safety culture Ardmac has built. Our clients trust us to deliver their vision but doing so safely is their key priority. We are proud to commit to accepting nothing less than 100% safe, wherever and wherever we work.

Safety. Evolving Safety Practices Ardmac’s approach to safety has evolved significantly over our 45-year history. Our “Safety First” programme reflects our belief that safety is everyone’s responsibility, starting with personal accountability and extending from there, right across every level of our organisation. Lessons learned and near-miss reporting. Informing micro-level enhancements to our practices. Task planning and skills development.

OUR PEOPLE

Proactively Promoting a Diverse & Inclusive Workplace.

Ardmac continues to create and promote an increasingly diverse and inclusive workplace in an industry where Diversity, Equality, and Inclusion (DEI) have faced their fair share of challenges. We recognise that we are not where we would like to be just yet, but we are proud to be a leader in advancing inclusivity in our sector. We know that it is essential to match our ambitions with actions and have now adopted a formal approach to ensuring an inclusive and diverse workplace culture can thrive. To ensure our policies and procedures, the backbone of our organisational structure, authentically reflect our commitment to DEI, we have partnered with the Irish Centre for Diversity (ICD). Our efforts to enhance these were recognised through achieving Bronze accreditation from the ICD, a significant achievement for our business. In 2023, we built on this recognition and were honoured to achieve Silver accreditation—a milestone that underscores our dedication to embedding diversity into the core of our business. For us, this accreditation is more than a badge; it’s a symbol of our efforts to put our aspirations into practice, and it sends a strong message that DEI is essential to our people, and therefore, essential to our business.

Enhancing our Efforts As we continue to grow, Ardmac is acutely aware of the need to grow our DEI efforts at pace. To do this, we are prioritising our data collection and processing to gain deeper insights that will allow us to target even more impactful initiatives. We are now tracking the 28 nationalities that make up our diverse team and reporting our monthly gender balance ratio, which currently stands at 78% male to 22% female. Although this ratio isn’t yet where we want it to be, we are proud of the fact that it is ahead of the industry norm and we’re actively working to improve it through implementing more inclusive recruitment practices. Ardmac also believes in using our voice as a leader in the sector to proactively influence others. We do this through targeted DEI-focused initiatives including sponsorship of industry events like the Construction Industry Federation’s (CIF) International Women’s Day conference. We take great pride in supporting our people to flourish in an inclusive and respectful workplace. Ardmac’s ambition is to encourage others to join us in creating a more diverse and inclusive industry where all talent is actively sought out and celebrated.

Culture of empowerment.

“We are fully committed to fostering an increasingly inclusive workplace, which we believe is essential to driving innovation and supporting the diverse needs of our clients.”

Ardmac’s culture of empowerment, backed by strong leadership and adaptive processes, ensures we can consistently exceed both our internal and external expectations. Informed by our learning, our culture is continuously evolving. That’s why our robust processes are never static, rather they are continuously being refined, drawing on the lessons learned from each project we deliver. We believe this enables Ardmac to enhance our efficiency and effectiveness. Our leadership culture, rooted in support, communication, and trust, is equally reflective of this approach. For us, leadership isn’t just about overseeing progress, it’s about working together in a flat level, inclusive structure that ensures maximum project success. Ardmac’s shared purpose guides our leadership team in their proactive approach to providing the guidance and support our employees need, ensuring they feel valued and empowered.

DIGITILISATION

Digital Focus We have been on a digitalisation journey for over a decade now and our efforts have positioned us as a digital leader in the construction sector. Today, we are expanding this journey through integrated cutting-edge tools and technologies like AI to streamline our operations and enhance our value proposition. From automating routine tasks to improving decision-making, Ardmac’s technological advancements are empowering our teams to focus on delivering exceptional project outcomes, maintaining our reputation for excellence in all that we do. This is the Ardmac way. We are now firmly focused on fully leveraging emerging and new technologies to maximise our impact. Through the implementation of a robust data classification policy, we will ensure that AI and other digital tools are adopted transparently and strategically, bolstering our risk management and data security capabilities. We see this step as a natural extension to Ardmac’s commitment to combining innovation with responsibility, safeguarding the quality and integrity of our business and the projects we deliver.

of our operations. Our Sustainability Journey:

We have placed SkyBlue at the heart of Ardmac’s agenda.

Sustainability isn’t just a goal—it’s part of who we are. Through Sky Blue, our ESG programme, we drive real change, embedding sustainability into our strategy and daily operations. We know there’s more to do, and we’re committed to a cleaner, greener future. Our leader-led ESG group oversees progress, focusing on Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions. Partnering with EcoVadis, CDP, and SBTi, we benchmark, improve, and ensure compliance with sustainability standards

OUR SUSTAINABILITY JOURNEY

Sustainability in Action From modeling embodied carbon on all projects to developing a sustainability labeling system for modular builds, we help clients make informed, low-carbon choices. Our in-house BIM team supports this by prioritising sustainable materials and smarter design. Driving Industry-Wide Impact Sustainability extends beyond our business. We collaborate with suppliers, setting higher environmental standards. Partnering with Dagard, we secured Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs) for cleanroom materials, setting a new industry benchmark. Achieving ISO 20400 certification in sustainable procurement reinforces our commitment. By prioritising ethical sourcing and encouraging suppliers to adopt EPDs, we drive positive change across the industry.

At Ardmac, sustainability isn’t just responsibility—it’s action.

“It’s taken time but our sustainable practices are now firmly embedded in our corporate agenda. We don’t just talk about sustainability, there’s real substance behind our actions, and we aim to have authentic, transparent conversations about our progress along the way.”

Diarmaid Magee, Director of SHEQ

We know that together we can achieve something incredible, setting new standards for sustainability that support a sustainable, impactful future that enables future generations to thrive.

INTERNAL COMPLIANCE

“As part of the Purever Group, Ardmac sees clear advantages in further aligning our operations with Purever in the UK. We’re already assessing opportunities to enhance our offsite construction capacity in this way.”

Meeting Market Expectations Operating across Ireland, the UK, and mainland Europe has enhanced our understanding of diverse client expectations, enabling us to tailor our services to specific market needs.

ECE: Early Contractor Engagement

“With a positive culture at the core of a project - design, schedule, commercial and operations needs and targets can be met first. As a consequence the construction process can focus all efforts on its core elements such as safety, quality and production.”

Early contractor engagement leads to the best outcomes for our clients. By integrating service penetrations during the pre-construction phase, we ensure alignment between contractors and client requirements. A dedicated team of specialists and client representatives establishes a strong, integrated schedule and steering committee, laying the foundation for project success. When this core group engages early, it fosters a culture of safety and collaboration, driving optimal results. With a positive culture at the heart of the project, key elements—such as design, scheduling, commercial considerations, and operational targets—can be prioritised effectively. As a result, the construction phase can remain focused on its core pillars: safety, quality, and productivity

DfMA(D): Design for Manufacture and Assembly / Disassembly.

“By adopting Design for Manufacture and Assembly early, we deliver smarter, safer, and more efficient builds. Close collaboration allows us to reduce waste, minimise risk, and ensure consistent quality from design through to delivery.”

Adopting a Design for Manufacture and Assembly (DfMA) approach leads to improved efficiency, cost savings, and higher-quality outcomes for our clients. By integrating DfMA principles early in the design phase, we ensure that components are standardised, prefabricated, and optimised for seamless on-site assembly. A collaborative approach between designers, contractors, and client representatives is essential to maximising the benefits of DfMA. Early engagement allows the project team to streamline construction methods, reduce waste, and enhance safety by shifting complex work to controlled factory environments. With a well-planned DfMA strategy, design, scheduling, commercial, and operational goals can be achieved more effectively.

Ireland

Project Size:

1450 sqm

Ardmac secured the Design-Build Turnkey Package for a QC Laboratory at a new API facility in Ireland, including the cleanroom envelope and a critical containment blast wall. The project featured a QC Laboratory, Filter Drier, Scrubber, Solution Preparation area, and a multi- level Process Ballroom. Ardmac led the design and construction, covering structural, architectural, mechanical, and electrical aspects. Jacobs Engineering oversaw the project, with Ardmac collaborating closely with specialist trade partners. Integrated Approach: Ardmac employed an integrated approach to ensure smooth execution, focusing on the early identification of secondary steel requirements to optimize construction and meet blast and fire ratings. The design also accounted for more than 250 service penetration points to accommodate both current and future facility needs. Blast Wall Solution: A critical aspect of the project was the blast wall. Ardmac designed and installed a multi-storey blast wall, 18 meters high and covering 1000sqm. This 50Kn/M2 blast wall met the client’s stringent safety requirements while allowing flexibility for future

process development. The design and independent certification of the wall highlighted Ardmac’s commitment to safety and quality. Coordination of Service Penetrations: Ardmac coordinated service penetrations across all areas of the project, ensuring that they were fully addressed before construction, particularly within the blast wall, which required careful planning and collaboration with trade partners. HVAC and Electrical Systems: Ardmac designed and installed the HVAC system for the QC Laboratory and its supporting rooms, integrating Air Handling Units (AHUs), extract systems, and a CAV/VAV system for safe operation. The electrical scope included the installation of distribution boards, lighting, and HVAC control systems. Cleanroom areas were equipped with specialised lighting, featuring Passive Infrared Sensors (PIRs) and a Central Battery Emergency Lighting System. Bespoke Door Interlock System: Ardmac developed a bespoke door interlock system, integrating it with Decontamination Misting Showers and Automated Door Closers. This system was tailored to the specific needs of the

facility and included a pneumatic door automation system for high-containment ATEX areas. Containment Safety: The facility was designed with high containment to safely handle OEB 5 materials. Ardmac installed lab furniture, fume hoods, chemical storage units, and Dagard walls, ceilings, and doors, ensuring minimal leakage. All penetration details were thoroughly reviewed to comply with VDI 2083 Part 19. Commissioning and Certification: Ardmac conducted rigorous commissioning and certification processes to meet the client’s safety standards, including independent containment testing under VDI 2083. Site Acceptance Tests (SATs) were developed to confirm compliance with user requirements and ensure the safe use of the facility’s systems. Conclusion: The API Project in Ireland showcases Ardmac’s dedication to safety, innovation, and excellence. Through a collaborative approach and adherence to global safety standards, the project was successfully completed, meeting the client’s requirements for OEB 5 product use and advancing pharmaceutical industry solutions.
