ULTRA3 drainage for Inverurie Community Campus reduces project costs

Latest News Wed, Feb 27, 2019 4:23 PM


Contractors for a new £55 million community campus in Inverurie have saved 20% on drainage, thanks to JDPs extensive range of products in their local Inverurie branch.

The 20% cost saving was the result of JDP’s product innovation and local stock availability, supplying one of the biggest school construction projects in Scotland with drainage solutions.

Providing space for 1,600 pupils, the Inverurie Community Campus will feature indoor pitches, a health centre and a range of amenities for the local community. Due to open in 2020, the campus will also accommodate St Andrews Special School, providing education and support for children with a range of barriers to learning.

JDP was able to provide a complete range of underground drainage systems to David Smith Contractors for this project. Caroline Lee, Regional Sales Office Supervisor at JDP explains: “JDP focuses on providing exceptional service and specialist support to the industry, and for this project, it was no different.”

ULTRA3 was a key component in the underground sewer drainage system, thanks to its full combination of fittings. The lightweight pipes, which are made from recycled materials, were complemented by David Smith contractors. “ULTRA3 saves money throughout the project compared to equal alternatives. David Smith contractors have two drainage squads and had both separately contacted the contracts manager to say how easy it was to install and comment on how robust it was”, said Caroline.

For projects focused on sustainability, ULTRA3 is a natural choice as it reduces CO2 emissions by being lightweight and able to store more during delivery. JDP’s hyper-local availability aided more savings for the Inverurie project, having product readily available every step of the way.
