Assemblin extends installation assignment for Natrium property project at University of Gothenburg
In connection with the Natrium partnership project at the University of Gothenburg having entered the production phase, Assemblin has been contracted to install electrical technology corresponding to an estimated total order value of approximately SEK 130 million. Assemblin will also be responsible for security installations for a value of approximately SEK 11 million.
The starting shot has now been fired for the construction of the new building that will bring together the Faculty of Science at the University of Gothenburg, while also strengthening its links with the medical education and research programmes at the Sahlgrenska Academy. In addition to the construction of a new building of 32,000 m2, distributed over eight floors and an atrium section, the project also includes the redevelopment of about 2,000 m2 of the existing row of buildings known as “Medicinarelängan”. The construction project is being conducted as a partnership project with Skanska as the client and Akademiska Hus as the developer. Having participated in the planning and design phase, Assemblin has now also been contracted for the production phase. The project is scheduled for completion in the summer of 2023.
“This technology-intensive project imposes ambitious demands on flexibility, durability and a high rate of production, which, combined with some of the space becoming advanced laboratory environments, imposes specific requirements on our installation solutions. We look forward to resolving this stimulating challenge alongside Skanska in a highly skilled team and in close collaboration with our client,” says Filip Eriksson, regional manager at Assemblin Electrical.
“In this project, both the building and installations are subject to stringent requirements. Assemblin has the experience and expertise required and together we share the objective of delivering a high-quality end product,” says Andreas Rustad, Project Manager at Skanska.
Assemblin’s assignments include lighting, power, telecommunications/data, fire alarms and solar cells. At its peak, the installation assignment will employ some 30 electricians from Assemblin.
“Assemblin has had very favourable experiences from numerous partnership projects in recent years. By taking the installation and operation perspective into account early in the process, the conditions for a positive and efficient construction process are enhanced, while the opportunities for generating energy-efficient, smart and long-term sustainable installation solutions adapted to users’ needs also increase,” says Fredrik Allthin, President and Business Area Manager at Assemblin Electrical.
Furthermore, Assemblin has also been commissioned to install security systems at Natrium, with the University of Gothenburg as the client. The assignment includes the final design, installation and commissioning of an integrated security system. In total, this order is valued at approximately SEK 11 million. Having commenced in the autumn of 2021, the assignment is scheduled for completion in the summer of 2023.
