Koolduct is good news for printing works

11 April, 2005

The need for the speedy installation of ductwork for a new Midlands printing press for newspaper publisher Trinity has been addressed using 3500 m2 of Kingspan’s KoolDuct system. It was installed by Ductform UK throughout the 3-storey building and plant room at Fort Dunlop in Birmingham. The speed was achieved by not having to lag the ducting as a second operation. Scaffolding could be dismantled immediately after each stage of the installation rather than remain in place for lagging, enabling other trades to start work sooner. The £60 million complex will print all the group’s local and regional titles, including the Birmingham Evening Mail, Birmingham Post, Sunday Mercury and Coventry Evening Telegraph.
