ANTRIM OFF-SITE MANUFACTURING Our offsite manufacturing facility in Antrim handled just over 105,000sqm of plasterboard, producing products for projects in the UK, Ireland and mainland Europe. Some statistics from our production this year includes over 20 miles of defection heads, 6 acres of plywood used in our manufacturing process and over 4,000 baffle boxes sent to sites. We are recycling waste plasterboard and metal from our sites which equates to 15% of our overall production with the expectation to increase this to 25% in 2024. “Off-site manufacturing has been a game changer in improving our efficiency and productivity on site. Materials are arriving to site ready for installation with minimal need for cutting resulting in less dust and waste being produced on site.” Sarah O’Leary, Contracts Manager Looking ahead, Antrim plans to further expand its off-site production capabilities in 2024. This expansion aims to bolster on-site efficiency by facilitating faster installations and ensuring the consistent quality of the products. Last year we announced the exciting acquisition of Gillespie GRG. This year Gillespie are pleased to showcase one of their prestigious projects after being by approached by DaeWha Kang Design to work on the stunning Café Laperouse for The OWO in London, following our work on numerous high-profile projects and a proven track record in our delivery of 3D projects with GRG (Glass Reinforced Gypsum). The bespoke panels were designed using the latest BIM technology and manufactured using CNC machines for the patterns and moulds for the off-site factory production giving a better finish and tolerances with a seamless effect. Zerodec is light weight, strong and fire tested to BS and achieves Gold standard for VOC. The end result of is an outstanding composition of GRG that brings elegance and a Parisian chic feel to Cafe Laperouse. CAFE LAPEROUSE
