The site includes a 53 storey N8 tower and a 33 Storey N9 tower and the towers contained 531 apartments in total.
The goals of sustainable construction the company takes into consideration include sourcing renewable and recyclable resources and reusing materials where possible to avoid sending waste to landfill.
City Flooring supports sites in achieving this by making sure its measurements are accurate allowing for minimal waste.
The company sends deliveries to a warehouse and the carpet is cut to size ready for site, limiting the number of deliveries, resulting in less traffic and therefore noise, while also minimising the amount of waste that needs to be disposed of. City Flooring also ensures minimal amount of plastic packaging is used during projects.
The current jobs City Flooring is involved in are projects run by property development companies including Consort Place worth £3.5m, Sackville Road worth £1.2m; which are run by Midgard, among various other large projects. The company also has other ongoing various small – medium contracts.
The challenges City Flooring face are the fluctuations in the economy and the construction industry. It can impact the demand for flooring products and services. City Flooring says it has to be prepared to navigate through these changes and adjust its strategies accordingly to stay profitable and competitive.
