The Requirements
While Terminal Two at Manchester Airport undergoes a £1bn transformation, airside office space and high-quality engineering workshops were required to accommodate specialist engineers from Storm Aviation.
The space needed to be capable of providing a modern office environment as well as a specialist engineering workshop. Airside storage of aircraft tyres was essential along with a specialist heating and cooling system inside to maintain a constant air temperature, free from air currents and dirt.
