Horizon delivers bespoke solution for Fosroc

Horizon Industrial Parks’ Solution: The Key Highlights

With a clear understanding of the specifications required by Fosroc India, Horizon proceeded to work on delivering the bespoke manufacturing facility with the necessary infrastructure and facilities.

Strategic and Well-Connected Location

Fosroc India’s new manufacturing facility is strategically located in JCK Horizon Industrial Park Kothur, in Hyderabad Telangana. The industrial park is well-connected to the International Airport as well as the National Highway 44 (Hyderabad -Bengaluru Highway). This makes raw material sourcing and logistical movement to Southern India extremely efficient for Fosroc India.

Adherence to the Stipulated Timeframe

Horizon is making progress to complete and deliver the built-to-suit facility by January 2024 as per the schedule agreed with the customer.

Compliance with Local Regulations

A large portion of the manufacturing facility has been designed with a custom height of 23 metres. Since this portion is to be dedicated to the storage of flammable chemicals in stacks, additional NOCs and approvals from various governmental agencies were required. To ensure compliance with local and national regulations, Horizon ensured that all the necessary standards and special statutory approvals for the manufacturing and storage of chemicals were sought and obtained.

Efficient Design and Layout

With a built-up area of approx. 120,000 sq. ft and an open area of 53,000 sq. ft, the new built-to-suit bespoke facility for Fosroc India is well-planned for maximising efficiency. Horizon Industrial Parks created a world class campus environment within the park to house the main factory as well as the auxiliary building. While the core building will be used for the client’s mainstream manufacturing operations, the additional building, which is located away from the primary manufacturing facility, will be employed for the storage of finished goods.

The BTS facility will also have various other efficiently designed features with functional advantages, such as the following:

• PEB structure with skylights, which utilises daylight and helps in saving energy
• Louvers for air ventilation for the entire building
• A concrete apron 16.5m in width to ensure heavy-duty performance for heavy traffic loads
• Roof and wall insulation to minimise radiant heat
• Roof safety harness lines along the periphery of the roof and on either side of the ridge ventilator
• Warehouse build optimised to streamline the manufacturing process for the client
• Differential roof heights ranging between 8 m to 23 m to cater to their manufacturing process flow
• Rooftop solar for energy efficiency

ESG-Compliant Manufacturing Unit

Horizon Industrial Parks is also 100% ESG-compliant. The materials used for the construction of Fosroc India facility are environment-friendly and embody less carbon. The roof has also been designed to cater to a solar panel load of up to 20kg/sq. m. Fosroc will be able to utilise this clean sustainable energy, thereby bringing down its operational cost and protecting the environment. The dual plumbing system with separate lines for domestic & flushing system utilises water resources efficiently.
