CHR EQUIPMENT - Change Brewing In Dudley….
Up to 10,000 students who attend Dudley College will have a surprise when they
return in September- a completely new sustainable café area.
Leading commercial kitchen company CHR Equipment, based in Bamber Bridge,
Preston, has won the £1/4m contract to revamp the central atrium at the
College’s 75 years-old Broadway Campus into a fully integrated refreshment zone.
As lead contractor, CHR will manage the whole project, including removal of the
existing refectory, kiosk, shop and coffee bar, and installation of a new café,
lounge and retail areas, toilets, décor and signage- all within the two months
of summer recess, and to high standards of sustainability.
Paul Neville, CHR Equipment sales director, says, “Dudley College is setting a
great example of how to rejuvenate an area to create a stimulating environment
for its students, and an enhanced revenue stream for the College. The Eco Café
uses recycled materials, hydro carbon refrigeration, LED light…..even the coffee
will be sustainable, being FairTrade under the ‘We Proudly Brew’ banner. The
whole project has been designed to ensure money invested by the College is
channelled back into the local economy and this will be as much as 50% of the
spend.”
The refit aims to provide students with state-of-the-art facilities ahead of the
College’s creation of a £30m learning quarter in the town- Evolve- which will
take four years to build, and provide one central educational point in place of
the current five campuses across the town.
The Dudley College project begins as CHR wins contracts to design, supply and
install kitchens for three new schools in Lincolnshire, and to supplement
facilities at Cadbury World, where it installed a new kitchen last year which
went on to win a national industry award for sustainability.
