BAE Systems
BAE Systems required a cost-effective upgrade solution for its Warton site that would increase cooling performance and deliver significant energy efficiencies without disruptions.
Vodacom
To meet the increase in demand for its data centre applications, Vodacom required a solution that would allow it to quickly roll out additional facilities without the time, high cost and logistical barriers associated with new build.
Bytemark Hosting
Bytemark Hosting provides a comprehensive managed hosting service to a portfolio of prestigious clients including the Cabinet Office, Carling.com and Médecins sans Frontières.
University of Portsmouth Data Centre
Working in conjunction with Sudlows, Airedale was selected for its ability to offer a complete solution encompassing British manufactured, high performance systems, advanced controls and expertise in integrating to third party systems, commissioning and ongoing service and support.

London Data Exchange (LDeX) provides purpose-built, enterprise-grade, network-independent, colocation space and high quality data centre solutions designed to deliver total confidence.
AHU Case Studies
ICC, Wales
This iconic Welsh landmark required 23 bespoke AHUs to cater for different extremes of footfall – anything up to 5,000 visitors had to be accommodated, whilst optimising energy output for lower volumes.
Cheapside House, London
Home to many different businesses within one building, the footfall in and out of Cheapside House is extremely high and in the midst of a congested capital city, the demands on ventilation high.
Fans, filters, access panels, heating coil, isolators, internal boxing and doors were required to be upgraded, part by part, allowing for these smaller parts to be delivered to the rooftop via the available means.
10 South Colonnade, Canary Wharf, London
As this was a refurbishment of an older building, there were tight spatial restrictions and access routes, which made it challenging to comply with Building Regulations Part L and the ErP (Energy-related Products Directive 2009/125/EC). To overcome this issue, Barkell designed and supplied the compliant AHUs in flat-pack form, and built on site.
Exhibition Centre Liverpool
Aside from the cost savings gained from carrying out much of the work off site; by installing air handling systems with integrated controls, the units now offer improved and efficient performance with increased reliability and control.
