BCL have recently been awarded the contract by Galliford Try to deliver approximately 1,000sqm of external timber cladding panels to the new Edenbridge Medical Centre in Kent. 

Designed by LSI Architects, the £13.5M development will form a brand new integrated hub, providing much needed treatment facilities including GP services and a range of health, social and community services.

The new health and wellbeing facility will replace facilities at both Edenbridge Medical Practice and Edenbridge Memorial Hospital which are becoming unfit for purpose and unable to support future service models.

The BCL wood cladding panel system will use thermally treated Scandinavian Pine with a pressure impregnation FR treatment to elevate the fire performance of their timber slat panels and be fully prefabricated off-site using secret-rear fixings to all timber slats, avoiding face fixings or penetrations to exposed timber surface and allowing timber to age better and coatings last longer.
