ISD Solutions Sponsors Prestigious RAC Cooling Industry Awards for Environmental Collaboration Category

Gloucester 30 March 2017: ISD Solutions, the UK’s leading specialist subcontractor in the design and construction of composite panel cold store warehouses, is delighted to be sponsoring the RAC Cooling Industry Awards for the second year, specifically for the increasingly important Environmental Collaboration category.

Now in its 13th year, the annual event represents the industry’s biggest and most-respected Awards, championing the leading innovations and environmental successes in the refrigeration and air conditioning industry across the UK. With a total of 14 targeted categories covering every aspect of the refrigeration and cooling industry the 2017 winners will be announced at the London Hilton, Park Lane on 27th September.

Selecting the Environmental Collaboration category is a perfect fit for ISD Solutions which is involved in the construction of the largest super-efficient cold store warehouses and other temperature controlled food storage and production facilities in the UK and globally. Recent projects have been driven by a collaborative approach to sustainability and environmental performance that involves the close interaction of designers, cooling specialists and main contractors with ISD Solutions’ own design, manufacturing and installation teams, to deliver robust energy efficient building solutions.

Over recent years the Environmental Collaboration category has become increasingly essential, as meeting tough environmental goals requires companies to share expertise and work together across disciplines. The use of BIM level 2 design processes, which in its sector ISD Solutions has pioneered, is also contributing. This category will reward partnerships across the supply chain where collaboration has resulted in real innovation or outstanding projects.

Tony Wall, Managing Director, ISD Solutions, pictured here presenting the award to the 2016 category winners said: “We are delighted to be sponsoring a key British industry in this way and one in which we play an extremely active role, even exporting our expertise to new projects in Australia for example, where we are currently building the largest high-bay temperature controlled warehouse in the Southern Hemisphere. The RACS Awards Environmental Collaboration category closely mirrors our own sustainability strategy, and the goals of our food industry clients for highly efficient, air-tight and sustainable solutions.”
