BECOSAN® proudly declares the triumphant culmination of an ambitious venture – the largest strip out, demolition, and refurbishment undertaking in the UK, realised within the premises of the former GAP Warehouse located in Rugby.
This milestone achievement finds its pinnacle in the property’s acquisition by retail giant Sainsbury’s, a transaction that stands as one of the year’s most remarkable single property deals.
In a dynamic collaboration involving Sunrise Real Estate Limited and Total Project Integration, BECOSAN® emerges as a pivotal player in actualising this monumental feat, encompassing a sprawling expanse of 661,000 sq. ft. (60,000 m2). Sunrise Real Estate, as the proprietor of this industrial edifice, orchestrated an extensive rejuvenation of the site, formally transferring possession to Sainsbury’s Supermarkets Limited.
The seeds of this ambitious revitalisation initiative were sown with Sunrise Real Estate’s strategic procurement of the property from Gap Inc. in September 2022. Within the span of a mere two months, the project found fruition through unwavering dedication and synchronised efforts of all stakeholders involved.
Central to this transformative endeavor was the comprehensive renovation of the Rugby 661 site. Guided by the astute management of Total Project Integration (TPI), this renovation venture incorporated cutting-edge pavement enhancements facilitated by the revolutionary BECOSAN® treatment.
Martin Kerrigan, BECOSAN®’s project director, and Oliver Sanz Wittrowksi, the treatment coordinator, both played integral roles in steering this project to success. Acknowledging the magnitude of this endeavor, Martin Kerrigan articulated, “Our involvement in this undertaking has been immensely gratifying. Witnessing the thorough restoration of the edifice to an exemplary standard is truly fulfilling, particularly with the incorporation of the BECOSAN® treatment on such a grand scale.”
Oliver Sanz Wittrowksi chimed in, “The BECOSAN® treatment not only revitalises the aesthetic allure of the pavement but also ensures elevated robustness and sustainability. By deploying this treatment, the Rugby 661 site has been fortified to stand the test of time.”
