3D Aluminium

Replace aging glazing units with high-performance, thermally efficient systems.
Minimise disruption to clinical operations, patient care, and emergency access.
Ensure full compliance with NHS safety standards, infection control, and HTM guidelines.

Access Strategy: TG20:21-compliant scaffolding across multiple elevations, including critical care zones and outpatient departments.
Glazing Replacement: Removal of legacy units and installation of double-glazed, low-emissivity panels with integrated solar control. All works sequenced to avoid exposure to clinical interiors.
Containment & Safety: Temporary hoardings, dust suppression systems, and vibration monitoring were deployed. RAMS included infection control overlays and emergency access contingencies.

Clinical Liaison: Daily briefings with estates and ward managers ensured alignment with patient schedules, theatre operations, and emergency protocols.
Public Communication: Signage, digital bulletins, and QR-linked updates informed staff, patients, and visitors of progress and access changes.
Compliance Oversight: Weekly audits with NHS estates, infection control, and H&S officers ensured full regulatory alignment.

Patient Experience: Improved natural light and thermal comfort in wards and waiting areas enhanced patient wellbeing and satisfaction scores.
Operational Excellence: Zero clinical incidents, on-time delivery, and full compliance reinforced contractor credibility for future NHS frameworks.
Reputation Building: The project was cited in NHS Estates bulletins as a benchmark for glazing refurbishment in live hospital environments.
Workforce Development: The contract supported apprenticeships in façade systems and healthcare-compliant site logistics, contributing to local employment and sector resilience.
