Liverpool Women's Hospital
This £5 million project helped transform the original hospital into one of Europe’s largest IVF centres.
Collaborating with the supply chain early was critical to ensure we specified the correct product to achieve the performance levels required (such as fire safety), and drive out waste. Through its own value engineering process, and by working closely with Galliford Try, British Gypsum standardised the plasterboard product and partition types, and significantly reduced labour costs and waste generation.
Over the next year, we are looking to utilise British Gypsum’s own plasterboard recycling service, where they collect and recycle waste plasterboard to produce new material. With better quality data on the plasterboard waste that is recycled, we will target improved performance across all of our sites. This approach is made possible as both organisations hold similar environmental values and partnering aspirations.
