Health & Wellbeing
The refurbishment will include all 7 vacant floors, reception, basement and roof level with delivery of enhanced health and wellbeing amenities, which include a business lounge, yoga studio, gym, new cycle hub and shower facilities and a communal roof terrace with pavilion over looking Manchester Town Hall.
Smart Tech
Smart Spaces will be installing a smart platform for Aviary which not only provides the softer services for occupiers such as a community via a building social media platform, but also allows us to manage more efficiently some of the harder services such as access into buildings and energy saving through integrated building intelligence.
We believe having a smart platform integrated into the design is the only way of improving the efficiency and sustainability of a building.
Smart Spaces work by installing a smart sensor into every electrical component in the building from the outset – lighting, HVAC, power, security, fire, blinds, access.
This is all done from a very user-friendly app that can be downloaded on phone, tablet or PC.
Environmental Credentials
Following completion the building will also be one of the most sustainable in the city centre with a clear path to be net zero carbon in operation by achieving a NABERS 5 star rating.
The project reflects a responsible and balanced approach to development by substantially refurbishing an existing office building rather than demolition and new build. As such the level of embodied carbon in the existing structure supports a much more positive sustainability assessment.
10% embodied carbon used*
*When compared with a similar new build. The Upfront Embodied Carbon to refurbish the building has been calculated at 60KgCO2e/m2 which is only around 10% of the Embodied Carbon for a similar new build office project.
69% less whole lifecycle carbon*
*The Whole Lifecycle Carbon calculation for the project by retaining and refurbishing the existing building has been calculated at 302kg/CO2/m2. This is around 69% less than the whole lifecycle carbon emission of a similar sized new build project. (2025 Target (LETI Band C) 970 KgCO2/m2)
Saving of 12,044 tonnes of CO2*
*The total embodied carbon saving of the Mosley Street project compared with a like for like new office building is a saving of 12,044 tonnes of CO2. This is the equivalent of 7,169 cars driven for one year or 5,550 return flights from Manchester to New York.
In order to support our sustainability strategy the design team have chosen a number of sustainable materials within the finishes of the scheme.
Main material is PaperStone which is a unique material made with FSC certified recycled paper cardboard combined with a patented phenolic resin. It is stripped and layered, pressed, and bonded to form a solid surface material that can be reused and recycled at the end of its life.
They source their timber from suppliers and forests that are licensed by “Grown in Britain, the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and the Programme for the Endorsement of Forest Certification (PEFC).”
Smile Plastics production is an inherently circular process, being made of 100% recycled plastics. Single use plastics are ground down and bonded creating unique and visually stunning plastic panels.The panels are built for longevity but at the end of their life can be recycled again.
A 100% carbon neutral product - external cladding material to the new pavilion, Dekton panels by Cosentino. This product is completely carbon neutral from cradle to grave.
Tarkett are dedicated to creating inherently sustainable flooring products,. One of the many ways they achieve this is through a recycling scheme; recycling old carpet tiles and vinyl flooring then used to create new flooring.
Feature ceiling in Reception. The decorative chain links are made with 20% recycled aluminium and at the end of their life can be fully recycled without quality loss.
