Large industrial demolition in Swindon


Our Projects

Project Overview

The project encompasses the deconstruction of the former Honda factory in Swindon, a 370-acre site at Panattoni Park. As one of the UK's largest demolition projects, it presented significant challenges, including the need for extensive planning, collaboration, and investment in new equipment. The site was officially launched in March by the former Prime Minister, and we began the project in February, mobilizing within weeks due to our early involvement in the planning and consultation stage.

We engaged early with our clients and the wider supply chain, ensuring thorough preparation ahead of the decommissioning. Our Managing Director, Mike Henderson, emphasized our advisory and consultancy role with Panattoni during the early contractor involvement stage. This early engagement allowed us to assist with due diligence ahead of the site handover. To meet the project's demands, we made a significant investment in new equipment, operating over 30 demolition machines, including the KMC600 with quick release arms and an 18m long crane attachment. This investment enhanced our efficiency, environmental sustainability, and safety.

The project is nearing completion, demonstrating our capability to manage one of the UK's largest demolition projects successfully. Our early engagement, significant investment in new equipment, and collaborative approach with all stakeholders, including Honda, Panattoni, Winvic, and ourselves, have been critical to the project's success. The deconstruction of the former Honda factory at Panattoni Park in Swindon stands as a testament to our commitment to efficiency, safety, and environmental sustainability in large-scale demolition projects.
