Spaceway fits mezzanine floor at Alitex office

Spaceway has installed a 26m2 mezzanine floor at the headquarters of Alitex, a creator of glasshouses and greenhouses, in Petersfield.

Alitex needed to carry out the second phase of the original office fit-out by reconfiguring the ground-floor accommodation and installing the mezzanine.

When Spaceway began the designs for the mezzanine, it realised that heat would build up in the area during the summer months, creating uncomfortable working conditions.

To overcome the problem, the company installed Ecophon Advantage 40m-thick insulated tiles laid in a grid along the profile of the roofline.

With the insulation work completed, Spaceway's team began fitting out the mezzanine.

A purpose-built ambulant timber staircase with a powder-coated Spaceway handrail system was installed from the ground floor to the mezzanine.

Komfort Kameo 75mm fire-rated partitioning was installed to create the 107m2 canteen, 60m2 training room and 39m2 boardroom.

To enable the canteen and the training room to be opened into one large area, Spaceway installed a top-hung acoustic dividing wall system with a veneer finish.

Finally, as Alitex wanted to be able to write on one of the training-room walls instead of having a board, Spaceway covered one wall with white Muraspec Memorase vinyl, which can be wiped clean.

With space freed up on the ground floor from the relocation of the canteen and boardroom, Spaceway completed the work by reconfiguring these areas into new office accommodation.
