FAYAT BATIMENT IDF has just been chosen as general contractor for the new Manufacture de la Mode, at Porte d’Aubervilliers in Paris. This new facility will house the luxury craftsmanship activities of a well-known brand.
The 22-month project will deliver a complex of new buildings covering a total of 25,478m², including one five-storey structure. The complex will include workshops, shared amenities (catering, cloak rooms etc.), office space and 2 underground levels including a car park, delivery bays and technical facilities. One of the biggest priorities for this operation is to obtain the necessary environmental labels and certifications: NF HQE for Tertiary Facilities, BREAM International, the Effinergie label and the City of Paris' Climate & Energy Plan. Other challenges include conducting construction work in tight surroundings, scheduling the preparatory studies and producing the technical and architectural reports.
Fayat subsidiaries Sefi-Intrafor, Darras & Jouanin and SAML will all be involved with this project, a fine example of synergy within the group.
