Building Standard provides post-COVID blueprint
Most companies are fresh out of the starting blocks when it comes to implementing post- COVID designs and standards . Building H3 by Ericsson provides a glimpse of just how contactless and tech-oriented workplaces may become – it has been awarded a ‘ Resilient ’ Immune Building Standard rating , the equivalent of five stars .
It features digital twin screens in receptions displaying immunity-boosting indicators , covering indoor and outside air quality ; built-in technologies to enhance the sanitisation of indoor spaces to prevent bacteria , viruses , and toxins spreading ; contactless technology for entry and exit ; and self-cleaning elevator buttons .
“ The facility ’ s ambition is the practical implementation of connected technologies , AI and the realisation of Industry 4.0 – these rely on the collection and application of data , for which Renishaw Central will play a critical role .”
Rt . Hon . Dame Andrea Leadsom , DBE MP , said the facility is a shining example of British innovation and ingenuity , providing futureready manufacturing capability and jobs to the UK .
“ Investment in leading technologies and processes is at the heart of ‘ levelling up ’ the country and the Industrial Strategy . Not only does it add to domestic capability , but businesses like this are also an inspiration and valuable educational tool for young professionals and STEM students – a fantastic way to prepare for , and embrace , the future of skilled employment .”
