Prater wins envelope deal for Boeing Gatwick hangar

Prater has been appointed to deliver the full envelope solution, including roofing, façade and glazing, to Boeing’s new GoldCare Maintenance Hangar at Gatwick Airport.

The specialist will start this month on the multi-million pound project to create a commercial aviation maintenance hangar to support Boeing’s European GoldCare customers.

Sisk is main contractor on the 32m high hangar.

The Prater technical team produced a mock up of the roof, capping and facade interface, enabling the end client to see exactly what the finished product would look like and allowing changes to be made accordingly before getting onsite.

Karl Moxon, Bid Manager at Prater said: “Through the use of 3D modelling and a collaborative working relationship with our supply chain, we have been able to determine what ultimately is in the best interests of the project to successfully move forward.

“Yet another project that is reeping the rewards of an honest and transparent tender process where the project requirements and deliverables are at heart of the decision making.

“After detailed preparation throughout the design and planning stages of this project, we are excited for works to officially get underway onsite.”
