Cadbury World - SWEET SUCCESS WITH CHILD-FRIENDLY SYSTEMS FOR CADBURY
Cadbury World
SWEET SUCCESS WITH CHILD-FRIENDLY SYSTEMS FOR CADBURY
Public Building
Birmingham, West Midlands
PROJECT BACKGROUND & REQUIREMENT:
As part of Merlin Entertainment's 8 million investment to revamp The Bournville Experience, we supplied both stepped and ramped access to the experience's new entrance.
Our systems support up to 1,000 kg, accommodating daily visitor traffic, prams, mobility scooters, shopping trolleys, and bikes.
Plus, if the entrance layout changes, the products can be reconfigured to fit the new design. This flexibility is a key advantage of choosing a modular system, providing the company with long-term cost savings and reducing the product’s environmental impact. In contrast, single-use wooden or concrete alternatives often end up in landfills.
DESIGN PHASE:
Our in-house design team developed 3D and 2D CAD drawings of the systems, providing the facility managers with a virtual preview of the solutions in situ.
INSTALLATION:
Three fully compliant ramp systems and a connecting step system were efficiently installed over a few weeks. The work was carried out early in the mornings, before guest opening hours, to minimise disruption.
The systems fully meet the requirements outlined in Part M and K of the Building Regulations.
SYSTEM FEATURES INCLUDED:
