New look building for key supplier
One of AJE’s specialist cladding team’s has embarked on a four-month project to replace the rails, purlins, roof and wall cladding on the building of a supplier we have a close relationship with.
The main factory building at Highland Galvanizers and Colour Coaters, in Elgin, will have its existing wall cladding replaced with specially coated GRP panels suited to the harsh environment of the factory and the roof will have new Composite Insulates panels installed. Both the walls and the roof will have opaque panels in their build up allowing natural light to flood the main building. Whilst, removing the existing cladding, the team will replace the side rails and roof purlin with new cold rolled sections that have been powder coated at Highland Galvanizers specialist facility in Cumbernauld giving longevity to the components in this particularly harsh environment.
Leading on the project is Allan Martin who said: “This project got underway at the end of July and we expect to be there with a team for approximately 16 weeks. We have a very close relationship with Highland Galvanziers who are a key supplier for us. They will remain open and to a degree it is business as usual, although our teams will be operating throughout the day and the galvanizers will be working through the night to keep their operations going.”
