Pragati Infra, a leading name in industrial manufacturing, recently entrusted Everest Industries with the task of expanding its facilities in Palwal, Haryana, to enhance its production capacity. The project involved the construction of three distinct buildings, each designed to meet the evolving operational needs of the company. The total tonnage of the entire facility is 1,000 MT, and each building incorporates modern amenities, optimised workspaces, and sustainable features, all tailored to meet the company’s growing needs.
Building Specifications
Block A2 is the largest structure in the complex, standing as a prime example of modern industrial architecture. With a tonnage of 495 MT and a plinth area of 11,580 sq m, this building is designed to handle high operational capacity while maintaining energy efficiency and worker comfort.
647 sq m of daylight polycarbonate panels integrated into the roof help flood the space with natural light. The roof features 4 mm thick air bubble insulation, covering 11,700 sqm. 278 sq m of louvers are strategically placed to promote effective ventilation.
Block A1 is a key component of the industrial complex, divided into two sections that serve distinct operational purposes. Part 1 of Block A1 has a structural tonnage of 220 MT and spans a plinth area of 3,980 sq m. To enhance energy efficiency, 300 sq m of daylight polycarbonate panels are installed.
The roof is insulated with 4 mm thick air bubble material, covering an area of 4,203 sq m. Integrated within the structure, 255 sq m of louvers facilitate optimal air circulation.
Part 2 of Block A1, the larger section, has a structural tonnage of 285 MT and a plinth area of 5,800 sq m. This section features 435 sq m of daylight polycarbonate panels to maximise natural lighting.
The roof is insulated with 4 mm thick air bubble material covering 6,067 sq m. To reduce the reliance on mechanical cooling systems, 337 sq m of louvers are integrated into the design.
Sustainable Features
The strategic use of daylight polycarbonate panels across all buildings minimises reliance on artificial lighting, reducing energy consumption while improving the internal environment for workers.
The air bubble insulation used in the roofing system significantly enhances the energy efficiency of the facility by ensuring optimal internal temperatures throughout the year. This reduces the load on HVAC systems, resulting in lower energy costs and a more environmentally friendly operation.
In addition, the buildings feature louvers that facilitate natural ventilation, which not only reduces the need for mechanical cooling but also improves indoor air quality—crucial for worker health and productivity.
Futureproofing
Each block includes a mezzanine area, ranging in size from 340 sqm to 590 sqm, offering flexible space for future storage, operations, or equipment. These mezzanine levels help future-proof the facility, allowing it to adapt to Pragati Infra’s expanding needs as the company grows.
