This case study outlines the successful collaboration between Spaceway and International Food Systems (IFS). IFS specialises in designing and managing food factory projects from inception to completion. Over the years, we have provided quotes for various IFS projects, and the Portion Factory Project marks our first collaborative execution.

Company: International Food Systems (IFS) 

  • Leads: Chris Perry and Martin Perry
  • Specialisation: Design and project management of food factories

About the project

Project Scope

Project: Portion Factory Mezzanine Floor

Complexity: High, due to multiple floors, heavy load requirements, and integrated walkways

Design Requirements:

  • Three large floors interconnected with walkways
  • Heavy-duty flooring to accommodate significant weights and activities
  • Specialised apertures for seamless integration of pipework to machines below

Execution

To meet the intricate demands of the project, our team proposed a strategic combination of flooring solutions tailored to specific areas:

Ecotile Flooring:

  • Application: Aisles and walkways
  • Reason: Durable and capable of handling heavy traffic, providing safety and longevity

Chequer Plate Flooring: 

  • Application: Above machinery areas
  • Reason: Provides a sturdy and non-slip surface, ideal for high-activity zones

Custom Apertures: 

  • Application: Areas designated for stillages
  • Reason: To allow pipework to feed directly down to the machines below, ensuring efficient operations

Challenges

The project presented several challenges due to its complexity: 

  • Designing a floor capable of supporting heavy pallets
  • Ensuring the flooring materials used in different areas met the specific needs of those zones
  • Integrating apertures seamlessly to allow for efficient pipework connections

The end result

The Portion Factory Project was successfully completed, meeting all the design specifications and requirements. The combination of Ecotile and chequer plate flooring, along with the custom apertures, provided a robust and efficient solution. The project exemplifies our ability to collaborate effectively with clients, understand their unique needs, and deliver tailored solutions.

Customer feedback

“We recently completed a project with Spaceway.  They were professional in their approach and able to work in a flexible way, accommodating design changes as the requirements of adjacent areas developed, which included changes to the structure to allow production areas underneath to be better utilised.  As design and project managers, this made our project easier to manage, and helped to avoid contract variation for the customer/end user.

I’ve worked with Charlie on a couple of Projects and have found him to be knowledgeable, professional, and approachable.  I’d recommend Spaceway to anyone looking for a new mezzanine.”
