S.A Damm Masterplan at UK production facility

S.A. Damm, the company behind the popular Estrella lager appointed Rolton to provide engineering advice and implementation, including master planning services for their new UK production facility.

S.A. Damm completed the acquisition of the Eagle Brewery from Carlsberg Marston’s Brewing Company in Bedford becoming their first overseas brewery outside the Iberian Peninsula, with a production capacity of 1 million hectolitres per year.  The agreement represented a key milestone in their internationalisation strategy, with 30% of the company’s activity outside of Spain, with brands in over 130 countries.

Our professional engineering service encompasses technical design including Civil, Structural, Strategic Energy and MEP solutions in conjunction with pre-construction advice.  Rolton provided guidance for our Spanish client ensuring compliance with UK industry standards and best practice for the redevelopment of existing space for commercial occupancy, with further potential developments of the site adjacent to the factory.

Arranged over ground, first and second floor levels the Eagle building has a floor area circa 1,440m2.  Our technical redesign provided plans for the construction of an open plan office, cellular offices and meeting rooms with state-of-the-art facilities.  The production facilities included water treatment areas, brewhouse, laboratories, storage and chemical treatment areas.
