Glass Factory

Ilton, Somerset

Topline Glazing Ltd commissioned O2i Design Ltd to design the new space for this leading manufacturer of sealed units and specialist glazing company. Topline Glazing Ltd had outgrown its premises and needed more space.

A larger, purpose-built factory would improve processes and incorporate new equipment and facilities. With careful planning, the bespoke factory improves workflow and accommodates this expanding business within a flexible space. Improved facilities have enabled Topline to develop into new glass and glazing areas. The new factory is twice the size of the earlier premises, and up-to-date technology is used throughout.

The new glass factory has allowed the company to install specialist machinery, including a 3.2-tonne over-head glass lifting crane. This machinery can handle larger sheets of glass and has increased the product range. A steel portal construction makes up the new building frame. Offices and a reception area are found at the front of the building, where fair-faced brick and extensive glazing create an attractive and functional structure.
