THe bottle factory

Project Brief

Pembroke & Bull were appointed to undertake decoration works to The Bottle Factory SE1. The 126 year old Bottle Factory offers a unique working environment full of volume and historic design features connecting to its industrial past featuring 32,234 sq ft across three floors and an annex.

Scope of Works

Painting & Decorating works started on the 11th Jan 2021 and comprised of decoration to the following areas:

Spray finish to all internal and external UPVC windows
Decoration to ground floor, first floor and loft which previous use was the factory
Decoration to the Annex which was previously used as the bottle hous

Key Challenges

The building being of character and possessing industrial features provided a challenge to ensure the character of the building was preserved whilst providing decorative finishes to update the building for its next intended use.
A mixture of diluted paint was used on bare brickwork which had to be of the same consistency on each batch to provide a uniform finish.
