Specialist & Controlled Facilities
We make uniquely specialised spaces, where some of the world’s smartest people do critical, often life-saving, work. We also create state-of-the art buildings and controlled environments for research, manufacturing, and specialised storage.
Critical industries like life sciences, biotechnology, pharmaceuticals, quantum, space, and high-tech manufacturing all need carefully controlled, and often clean air, or sealed, working environments. Individual spaces may need controlled temperature, humidity, airflow, light levels, or separation.
We can work to any recognised regulatory standard for environmental control, whether it’s for research, manufacturing, or specialised storage. And at the highest level of environmental control, we have delivered more CL3 and CL4 biocontainment facilities, to higher operating standards, than anyone else in the UK.
We can provide new build, extension, or retrofit facilities to the very highest standards of compliance. And we can deliver in live working environments with minimal disruption to operations.
Experts in Control
A controlled environment is defined as an enclosed area with specific regulated parameters; including temperature, humidity, pressure, light, airflow and segregation.
Our cross-sector experience of developing environmentally controlled environments to meet our client’s specific business and regulatory challenges has seen us deliver for brands including:
- Berry Bros & Rudd
Design and construction of a modern temperature and humidity-controlled wine storage facility, precisely replicating the specific environmental attributes of an underground wine cellar. - Alere Technologies
Design and construction of a £1m production cleanroom facility within their existing warehouse which is humidity and lighting controlled to suit the use of specific chemicals used within their production process. - LumiraDX
Design and build of a 2,000m2 ISO7 cleanroom for manufacturing diagnostic medical equipment.
The work T-SQUARED has done is to a high standard and the assistance they gave us is greatly appreciated. CTSA are always grateful for the client and contractor to be engaged with us as early as possible - it saves time, cost and problems in the long run.
