Mount Pleasant Phase 3

Commercial Plumbing for London Development Project in Farringdon

Commercial Plumbing Supplies in Central London

Brymec has streamlined the construction supply chains for the Mount Pleasant Development, which is a ‘Postmark’ development in Farringdon, Central London.

This transformative mixed-use project has been constructed on the former Royal Mail sorting office site and includes 336 residential units, over 4,000 sqm of office space, more than 1,400 sqm of community space, car and cycle parking, and public open spaces.

The project’s complexity was heightened by its construction over a basement with intricate structures of existing underground postal tunnels. The development required residential units spread across 5 blocks, ranging from 3-11-storey buildings.

The private and shared ownership residential units have been designed to achieve a BREEAM Very Good rating and a code for Sustainable Homes Level 4. With this in mind, Brymec was selected because our plumbing and drainage products offer high quality, and our scrutinised standards offered the construction team a carefully reviewed process to ensure that the completed homes meet the relevant standards.

The Challenge of Plumbing Projects and Large Developments

The Mount Pleasant project faces a stringent deadline to accommodate residents in the new units by the end of 2023. With the construction progressing rapidly, the mechanical contractor, FG Mechanical, faced the challenge of securing essential products promptly to avoid installation delays.

With every project, much thought and consideration are given to every single stage of the development, ensuring that the plans are safe and can accommodate all requirements. This was no exception for the Mount Pleasant project.

Brymec’s strategic approach to supply chain management and commitment to customer satisfaction played a vital role in the successful and timely completion of the Mount Pleasant development. Whether dealing with technical queries, product information, or service-related issues, Brymec consistently demonstrated a commitment to excellent service.

Steel Tube, Fittings, and HDPE Products in Large-Scale Development Projects

In large development projects such as Mount Pleasant in Farringdon, Central London, the choice of construction materials is critical in ensuring structural integrity and sustainability. We used Steel Tube, Fittings, and HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) products as they offered a combination of durability, flexibility, and environmental considerations.

Steel Tube and Fittings:

Steel Tube and Fittings from Brymec are engineered to meet the highest quality standards. In the context of Mount Pleasant, the application of Hot Finished Part 2 Heavy S&S Steel Tube, FxF Short Bends, Elbows, and Reducing Sockets showcases their adaptability to complex structures. Dual certification to BS EN10255/10217 and compliance with the Pressure Equipment Directive (PED) ensure that these materials meet safety standards and contribute to the project’s overall sustainability goals.

HDPE

HDPE products, used for Mount Pleasant’s commercial waste and drainage needs, bring lightweight efficiency to large-scale developments. The advantages of High-Density Polyethylene include its resistance to corrosion and suitability for soil, waste, and rainwater drainage, which makes it a preferred choice.

Materials such as Plain End Pipe, Equal Single Y Branches, Expansion Socket Ring Seal Coupling, and Electro-Fusion Coupling demonstrate the versatility of HDPE in addressing diverse construction requirements.
