How was Naylor Novoform involved in the project?
Here at Naylor Novoform, we’re proud to have been involved heavily in the project from the beginning.
We liaised closely with those on site and ensured accurate, carefully scheduled deliveries which helped to ensure the project was completed on time.
We worked with them in the early stages on the foundation design and created bespoke panel sizes to suit their requirements.
We held a large number of our Novoform panels in stock ready for call-off due to the extensive scale of the building and therefore the large quantities of Novoform required.
Thanks to the speed and ease of Novoform Formwork installations, every delivery of the panels were installed efficiently and to programme.
We made sure that each delivery was palletised and clearly marked for ease of identification and storage on site.
Novoform also drastically reduces the amount of waste material needed to be removed from the site, due to its minimum dig requirements.
Why Novoform?
Due to the scope of the project undertaken, as well as the poor ground conditions at the site, Novoform was the number one choice for the project’s Formwork solution.
