With 70 % growth over the last three years and still more in prospect, bulk powder storage and packaging specialists, Resin Handling Services (RHS), found they had severe capacity problems. Help came from Smart Space, who completed a project to provide additional temporary building storage within two months from order, with the actual build time on site taking four days.
The new building provides a storage capacity of over 3600 cubic metres and has a footprint of 15 by 55 metres. Being of light weight construction meant minimal ground work was needed and the building was easily installed directly onto an existing car park. Though designed for temporary use, these buildings will provide years of service if needed. When decommissioned they are totally re-usable and will leave no significant footprint once removed. n
