United Biscuits - Glasgow

New Washroom & Changing Facilities for 600 United Biscuit employees at their McVitie's Victoria Works biscuit factory in Glasgow.

The 19 week project involved the internal refurbishment of existing office and canteen spaces within the site factory to create bespoke employee changing facilities and allow for best utilisation of the existing office spaces.

Works also included the refurbishment of existing M&E, installation of a new lighting and ventilation system and general repair and refurbishment works.

Another project on site included the installation of a new fire alarm system to production areas and removal of the existing alarm system once the new system was in place. These fire strategy works included
• Full site wide fire alarm system, with the main production hall designed as a wireless system to provide future flexibility for a proposed new roof.
• New emergency lighting
• New fire compartment doors

In addition a new 2,000 sq m resin floor was installed to Production Line 19, working around a live production line.

McVitie’s biscuits have been enjoyed by generations for around 160 years and their McVitie’s Digestive remains a firm favourite and is the highest selling brand in the everyday biscuit segment. Over 71 million packets of McVitie's Chocolate Digestives are eaten in the UK each year - that's an astonishing 52 biscuits per second!
