PharmaChem

Delivering high-tech laboratories in up to half the time of traditional build

Whether you need pleasant, secure working environments or hi-tech laboratories, Yorkon has the expertise and resources you need to deliver your building up in up to half the time of traditional construction.

Remove the guess work from your building project

With only 63 per cent of projects delivered on time and only 49 per cent delivered to budget, traditional build fails to meet the major challenges facing the education sector.

In contrast, over the last 5 years, Yorkon has improved the percentage of projects delivered on time and on budget from 94% to 100% in 2005.

With earlier occupation, guaranteed quality, design flexibility, improved site safety and less disruption to your site during construction, the Yorkon building system is the perfect solution for a range of Pharmachem uses. These include:

"Our experience with Yorkon’s building system at other sites has shown that modular construction can achieve significant savings in programme time. This means that new facilities can be brought into beneficial use much earlier, which is a key advantage in a fast changing industry."
Allan McKenzie, Project Manager at Syngenta
