Promat UK Ltd meets hot demand with a second temporary building

A manufacturer of passive fire protection coatings has doubled the storage capacity of its site by investing in its second temporary building from Spaciotempo.

Promat UK, based in Lindrick, near Worksop, Nottinghamshire, has avoided the expense of relocating or storing its products off-site by using a 300sqm temporary building from our Neivalu range as a temporary warehouse.

Promat’s products are sprayed onto the walls of tunnels, petrochemical plants and other industrial buildings to protect the infrastructure of the facility. They have been working at full capacity over the past two years to meet growing demand.

However, the extra production has meant it has run out of room to store its products, which two years ago led the company’s factory manager, Matt Green, to ask us to help.

Within a couple of months – with planning permission secured thanks to our town planning specialist partners - we had erected a 300sqm temporary building on Promat’s site.

Then, at the end of last year, with demand continuing to soar, Promat ordered another building – which we erected within a matter of weeks.

Standing on a concrete base, it has one set of roller doors and a single personnel door. It has a thermo insulated roof – consisting of an inflated PVC envelope – and 40mm steel sandwich wall panels.

Both temporary buildings, which are on long-term hire, are currently full, each containing 350 pallets of bagged products awaiting delivery.

Matt said: “Because we own the premises, have a settled and flexible workforce and excellent transport links, we want to stay where we are, which is why the temporary buildings have been so useful.

“They are full to capacity now, but there is no way we could have met the demand without the extra storage space they gave us.”

Scott Jameson, director of sales at Spaciotempo, said: “Success for any company is always good news, but often it cause problems with warehousing if they are producing more goods than they can store.

“However, the fact that Promat had spare land on their site was a saving grace. It meant that we could erect two temporary buildings which have been crucial to ensuring that they can deal with the extra demand.”

Burton brewers Marston’s raises a glass to Spaciotempo

With sales for its own-label ale on the up, at the end of last year brewers Marston’s found that it was running out of storage space at its brewery in the UK’s beer capital, Burton-on-Trent.

This was despite Marston’s, which keeps drinkers refreshed with favourites such as Marston’s Pedigree, Old Empire IPA and Burton Bitter, having already invested in a temporary building from Spaciotempo two years earlier.

The acquisition of the first building, which measured 396sqm and six metres high, gave the brewery storage space for 2,000 pallets – which equated to around two million pints of beer. 

As 2011 drew to a close, and with demand increasing, the company opted for an extension measuring 686sqm. This increased its storage capacity by a further 3,000 pallets – containing a thirst-quenching three million pints of beer.

Yet this was only part of the story, because since the conditions its beer is stored at is vital, Marston’s needed a warehouse that would hold a steady temperature, no matter what the weather was doing outside.

To accommodate this, Spaciotempo supplied a building from its Neivalu range, complete with single-sheet steel cladding and a thermo roof, a PVC polyester envelope inflated with a low-pressure automatic pump to create a pocket of air, which acts as a layer of insulation.

“Sales of our beers were doing extremely well and we had just got a new distribution contract, so in the run-up to Christmas we realised that we needed extra storage space to cope with all that extra volume,” explained Emma Gilleland, head brewer at Marston’s.

“We already had a building from Spaciotempo and it was working perfectly, so we went straight back to them.

“Temporary buildings are a quick and low cost way of extending our capacity and the extension is brilliant. It performs as well as a permanent building but, most importantly for us, whether it’s hot or cold outside, it keeps the ambient temperature just as we need it.”

Scott Jameson, director of sales at Spaciotempo, said: “Marston’s is a huge name in the brewing and pub industry, so naturally we are delighted to have supplied another building to such a well-known and well-regarded brand.

“While the dimensions of the extension are impressive, the thermo roof is proving to be the real success story of the contract.

“It is yet another demonstration of how modern temporary buildings perform as well as permanent structures and even can be trusted to keep literally millions of pints of the nation’s favourite beers in optimum condition.”
