Bowmer & Kirkland has been appointed by formwork and scaffolding specialist PERI for a £15m redevelopment of its Essex office and depot.

The scheme will help PERI serve a growing number of projects across the south east.

Director of B&K, Adrian Grocock, said: “We are really delighted to be constructing this facility for PERI UK and look forward to building a long lasting relationship with everyone involved in the project.”

The redevelopment will provide improved facilities for the site’s 80 employees, including a modern two-storey office covering 2,700 m² of floor space.

Two separate buildings will replace the current warehouse, one accommodating cleaning and repair, the other storing plywood stock.

Plans also include a showroom designed to display and demonstrate formwork and scaffolding equipment to customers, schools and colleges.

On completion of the build, the existing office will be demolished, creating additional yard space to accommodate a larger stock profile on site.

Managing Director of PERI UK, Alasdair Stables said: “This is an exciting time for PERI UK. The redevelopment is a significant investment by PERI into its Brentwood office and depot.

“It will provide new and improved facilities for staff, and additional services for customers including a plywood and timber store, equipment showroom for training, and a dedicated pre-assembly hall to complement our existing service in Rugby.”
