The Jaguar Land Rover Deck 92 project is a new 10,000m2 material, planning and logistics centre. The Centre incorporates Colorcoat Renew SC® enabling the building envelope to play an active role in the building’s environmental performance.

Using Colorcoat Renew SC® has achieved a low cost source of renewable energy

Using Colorcoat Renew SC® on this building has enabled the provision of pre-heated, ventilated, fresh air thereby reducing the energy load on the primary heating system and minimising heat losses due to the infiltration of cold ambient air.

The pre-engineered control system optimizes the renewable heat gain and provides night time purge cooling in the summer months.

Jaguar’s material, planning and logistics centre

By incorporating Colorcoat Renew SC® Jaguar Land Rover have achieved a low cost source of renewable energy, reduced overall energy consumption in the building and helped towards their targets of reducing CO2 emissions from their manufacturing operations.
