Partition creates additional production zone
Westgate has installed a floor-to-ceiling partition for Kingsland Drinks’ storage warehouse in Manchester. The new enclosure will enable the company to turn half the space into a production zone for a new bottling line.
Kingsland Drinks has been producing wines and spirits since 1955. Specialising in a complete category solution, the company works with top producers around the world, as well as creating its own brands.
Westgate had previously worked with Kingsland Drinks supplying Hoardfast, a part height partitioning system and, having completed many projects for temperature and dust control in food and drink environments in the past, Westgate recommended Flexiwall to deliver the requirements of the project.
Operating in the food and drink industry means that Kingsland Drinks must meet the requirements for BRC accreditation.
Joseph Rowles, key account manager for the food and beverage sector commented: “Flexiwall takes in to account the requirements of BRC as it is manufactured from food grade materials, delivers an over 99% dust tight seal and easily segregates production and storage areas.
"Installations are quick and clean in comparison to traditional partitioning solutions. Flexiwall installation methods reduce the amount of downtime required and maximise operation schedules during planned project work; something our food and beverage manufacturing customers benefit from massively.”
As well as the Flexiwall partition, which included vision panels, Westgate also installed three steel pedestrian doors and a Fastflex fast action door, providing Kingsland Drinks with an integrated solution from a single supplier.
Kingsland Drinks also took advantage of being able to add its company logo to the Flexiwall, further enhancing the look of the partition and creating a corporate and branded environment for workers and visitors.
