Personnel located at the headquarters of a major supermarket chain in the north of England have warmed to their new working environment, thanks in part to the specification of raft ceiling structures from the range of Ecophon for the offices.
The product used in the Booths Central Office in Ribbleton not only offers visual appeal and acoustic control, but helps keep the space cool.
Avoiding the use of conventional suspended ceiling systems within the environmentally conscious designs for the development enabled the building's structure to be employed to moderate the internal temperature.
This passive approach to cooling within the building services strategy, avoids the need for high cost air conditioning.
