This year, Tilia has been involved in the implementation
of expansion plans for Preva’s potato packing plant at Snetterton Business Park
in Norfolk.
One of the tasks undertaken by the team has been the
construction of their new cold store units, on a site first marked out last
December.
Before construction could begin, the site needed to be
cleared and levelled, so that foundations could be set out. During excavation
work the team had to dig down into blue clay, although work progressed well.
The next stage involved the installation of the bolt
boxes and pouring of the concrete for the foundations. This was followed by the
steel erection, which proceeded very smoothly, and the cladding work. To
complete the project, Tilia laid the concrete floor with necessary drainage
connections and external reinforced concrete work was put in place.
We were extremely satisfied with the finished result –
two cold store stores, which were then fitted with chiller units in preparation
for this year’s potato crop.
More recently, Tilia have further improved the site by
adding additional reinforced concrete to the front of the units, creating an
area for the delivery trucks.
It’s been a pleasure to be involved in yet another stage
of Preva’s expansion of their acclaimed Snetterton potato packing facility. Tilia
