Firth Way, Nottingham is a 362,289 sq ft logistics development, developed by Barwood Capital and Premcor Estates, with Winvic Construction Ltd as main contractor. Completed in 2023, the facility provides modern warehouse and office accommodation designed to meet high standards of energy efficiency and sustainability.
Hathaway's scope encompassed the main warehouse roofing and wall cladding, incorporating Euroclad Elite Plus twin-skin systems with high-performance insulation. The office elevations featured Rockwool-cored composite panels, complemented by a combination of horizontal and vertical profiled cladding to create a distinctive external appearance.
The roofing specification incorporated extensive in-plane rooflights to maximise natural daylight, alongside insulated gutter systems and siphonic rainwater drainage. Hathaway’s design team also provided the technical detailing for two living green roof canopies, subsequently installed by specialist contractor Shield Roofing, contributing to the development’s biodiversity enhancements.
The completed development achieved BREEAM Excellent and an EPC A rating, alongside net zero carbon in construction credentials. Additional sustainability features include rooftop solar photovoltaic panels and electric vehicle charging infrastructure.
