PR.indd 1 Primark & Gilberts – the fi rst and now the biggest
The world’s biggest Primark store is making the most of its space – through to its ventilation. Gilberts Blackpool – the air movement specialist that provided the air distribution outlets for Primark’s fi rst UK store over 20 years ago – has now facilitated a fresh environment for shoppers at the latest Primark to open its doors: the Birmingham megastore, claimed to be the biggest of the chain’s outlets in the world. It even features three food venues, Disney and Hogwarts zones and a beauty studio. Gilberts worked with facilities management company Mitie to ensure air supply throughout the public and staff areas of fi ve-storey, 161,000 ft2 (14,957 m2) new store, on the former Pavilions site in the heart of the UK’s second city. A combination of GSFA swirl diffusers, DG4 ceiling diffusers, GX extract valves, GSL linear slot diffusers and transfer grilles provide air supply internally, complimented by smoke louvres within the atrium, and WGF38 external louvres on the facade from fi rst fl oor upwards servicing the plant rooms. More than 300 diffusers, linear diffusers up to 2.4 m long, and some 20 facade louvres up to 2.5 m x 1.5 m were manufactured at Gilberts’ Lancashire factory for on-site installation by Mitie.
