Welsh fabricator Dudley’s Aluminium has completed work on zone one of Pentre Awel, Llanelli, a project which aims to improve the health and wellbeing of people in the region.
On 15 October, Canolfan Pentre Awel, the largest ever regeneration project of its size in south-west Wales, opened its doors to the local community. It is one of nine major projects under the Swansea Bay City Deal, providing support in health and wellbeing, and offering spaces for developments for businesses, education and training.
The project is being developed in four zones and Dudley’s Aluminium worked alongside main contractor Bouygues UK to install Kawneer capped curtain walling, windows and doors, plus an automatic curved sliding door, automatic sliding doors and mechanical louvres, to zone one of the build.
Zone one of Pentre Awel brings together life science innovation, community healthcare and modern leisure facilities at a single prime location.
The development includes a clinical research and delivery centre, integrated care and rehabilitation facilities, and a state-of-the-art leisure centre complete with multipurpose studios, a gym, hydrotherapy pool, swimming pool and sports hall.
Steve Muir, Commercial Director at Dudley’s Aluminium, said: “It has been wonderful to work with Bouygues UK on this epic regeneration project in Llanelli. We are thrilled with the outcome of this project and proud to have been a part of it. From research and innovation spaces to modern leisure facilities, zone one of Pentre Awel will provide local people with access to everything they need to improve their health and wellbeing at all stages of life.”
