Construction in Operating Facilities

Many of the projects that Clarion take on are in working facilities. We understand that our customers have businesses to run and production pays the bills, making any downtime extremely costly. One of the many benefits of partnering with Clarion for you projects is our knowledge and experience working in and around working facilities and live-production environments. Our job is not just to design and build, but to ensure that we keep your business moving, with minimal impact on the day-to-day operations of our customers. These considerations are part of the preconstruction and planning phase of every project and until the last day when construction is complete. 

To ensure the smooth and successful completion of any project and to minimize the impact on our customers’ business operations in an operating facility, Clarion has developed and effectively integrated the following measures into our construction process:

• Weekly customer update meetings that include a schedule look-ahead
• Flexible scheduling and multiple shifts to work alongside or around the heaviest operating hours at a facility
• Temporary construction curtains or walls for safety and cleanliness
• On-site safety officer
• Dedicated on-site superintendent, Project Manager, and Contract Administrator for the fastest response to changing conditions

Here are a few examples of construction projects that Clarion has completed successfully in working facilities:

• Freezer and cooler expansions
• Processing and production room renovations
• Replacing T bar grid ceiling with insulated metal panel ceilings
• Lining of walls and ceiling with Trusscore product for insulation and/or washdown capability
• Replacing exterior mounted insulated wall panels
• Replacing high rib insulated metal roof panels
• New construction – of all types - in the heart of a working facility
• Repairing or replacing TPO or PVC roofs

If you are looking to renovate, upgrade, or expand your facilities infrastructure or production/processing room, look no further, Clarion can handle all your construction needs inside and outside of your facility. Let’s work together.
