Oxford Nanopore Technologies had an urgent requirement for a 3,200m2 production facility incorporating high-grade ISO classified cleanrooms, product laboratories, packaging suite, offices and warehousing. To facilitate this fast track build, T-SQUARED was able to provide a turnkey design, construction and validation service, taking an empty shell to a validated cleanroom in just seven months.
The first phase released a fully operational Research & Development (R&D) laboratory, offices and welfare facilities just three months after the release of the building shell to T-SQUARED. This enabled Oxford Nanopore Technologies to begin manufacture and prepare for the release of the remaining production areas.
The second phase released a high-grade ISO 4 classified cleanroom, packaging and quality control, warehousing and all supporting plant areas to enable full-scale production after a fast-tracked seven-month fitout. The final phase was completed one month ahead of schedule and included a high-grade ISO classified cleanroom.
T-SQUARED’s exceptional attention to detail, right from initial scoping, delivered a world-class facility, allowing Oxford Nanopore the capability to scale its manufacture in line with rapid commercial growth.
The facility has surpassed our expectations and has met or bettered all performance requirements.
