F&A were engaged to carry out detailed design and installation of the MEP services for Brompton’s new UK headquarters and distribution centre. The new location for Brompton almost doubled the size of their previous facility. The fit out comprised of a huge containment installation and a significant amount of specialist power. Lighting was designed and installed to suit the manufacturing areas as well as office areas. Safety services installation were important due to the nature of the space.
