Offsite Prefabricated Packaged Plantrooms
by
Constant Air Systems
CAS (Constant Air Systems) is one of the UK’s leading Offsite pre-fabricated packaged plant room manufacturers.
Delivering entirely bespoke systems for a wide range of buildings, pre-fabrication in a factory ensures all elements are tested in a controlled environment, reduces overall costs and minimises installation time on-site. Want a renewable system? Looking for something a bit different, such as sea water cooling? Need to combine a number of functions, including heating and air handling? With its team of mechanical, electrical and acoustic experts, CAS can provide a solution to suit the demands of almost any application. Founded in 1965, CAS is an independent company with over 45 years experience in the field of heating, ventilation and air conditioning. The business started manufacturing pre-fabricated plant rooms in 1986, initially for retail and then moving into the industrial sector. To date, CAS has successfully carried out contracts for motor, pharmaceutical and print companies, to name a few.
Pre-fabricated plant rooms are increasingly in demand; keeping costs down and time on-site to a minimum, plus by building and, importantly, testing the system before it’s installed, there are no hidden surprises.
Delivery of the finished plant room can be arranged at a time to suit the client’s build path; all systems arrive ready to be connected, with minimal effort. Architects, project managers, consultants and contractors are increasingly seeking out this approach, thanks to the benefits experienced at every stage of a project:
Costs
An independent analysis by BSRIA indicates a saving of 13.4% for a packaged plant system when compared with traditional construction. While this may not be true of every project, the statistic indicates what can be achieved. The same report also pointed to the improved productivity and reduction
in labour costs within a manufacturing environment.
Involving a specialist manufacturer, such as CAS, in the very early stages of a development will maximise the potential savings available through the off-site approach.
