British Sugar Headquarters
Client: British Sugar
Our Approach
British Sugar invested in a new HQ in Peterborough. With training and conference facilities, a café, and focal atrium meeting space, this modern development aimed to engage its 300-strong workforce, modernise work practices, and deliver on ambitious long-term goals.
The brief was for modern and robust building services to stimulate staff whilst adopting a reduced demand driven approach.
Passive design techniques were central to reducing the annual energy demand.
The building is highly insulated which reduces the heating required in winter to very low levels. Highly efficient heat recovery systems and night ventilation reduce the need for building cooling in warmer months.
