Business areas

Concepts, products and service.Our three business areas of concepts,

products and service are the dimensions in

which our customers can create rooms just

as they imagine them. Such as office space,

for example, where the intelligent

coordination of all three areas creates the

prerequisites for aesthetic as well as

functional perspectives in the workday.

Regardless of whether this is about interior

construction or facade construction . our

customers receive all services from one

source. This results in an important

advantage for them: less coordination effort

and minimal integration problems.

Norwood Concepts: Ready even for the extraordinary

A room isn’t the same as any other room - and a facade is not the same as any other facade. For that reason we are developing integrated complete solutions together with our customers, so that we can guarantee a perfect result even for special projects. With our extensive know-how and with the employment of the latest technology in equipment, we ensure precise planning and implementation

In order for this to be possible, we precisely tailor the services that our customers require - individually or as a customised all-round support cycle. This makes it particularly easy for building owners to achieve even the most demanding projects.

We make use of our latest experience in the employment of synergies and in the constant development of new innovations. Because new ideas by architects require new solutions in their execution.

First-class integration of functionality and design.

Norwood guarantees the perfect fusion of aesthetic demands with the respective functional

requirements - even with unusual projects.

Norwood is a turnkey partitions solutions provider, delivering planning, design, manufacture

and installation of bespoke steel partition systems to data centers, corporate offices, health

care, education and controlled environments.

Qatar University Library - QatarLeeds Academy – UK.Derby University - UK.

EducationThe challenge facing any school building project these days is finding a solution that is

cheap enough. Ike Ijeh talks to the team behind PodSolve, which could offer hope to the

cash-strapped education sector

In response to this challenge to a flexible, low cost approach to school construction,

Norwood have responded by utilising and developing their existing Prefabricated pod.

The new pod maximises the use of daylight through the building to create warmth, but also

has natural ventilation, allowing air to pass out through the ceiling and air flow in through the

walls at low levels. Acoustic challenges have been resolved along with accommodation for

power and data being completed at offsite stage.

Quality Management

Who is responsible for quality management in our company…?

Every single employee.

In our company it is the employees themselves, in all departments, who ensure the consistently high quality - as developers and promoters of the product and the corresponding processes. Through our integrated management system, we also provide excellent work safety and extensive environmental protection. Because you can trust our products to have efficiency and quality just as much as you can trust us to deal with people and nature responsibly.

With us, quality is a sure thing.

The quality assurance of our products is a significant aspect of our work. All the

necessary controls in the individual operations and at the construction sites are carried

out by our staff on site. The results are evaluated by the respective responsible parties in

regular quality checks. If needed, we will then initiate any appropriate corrective &

preventative measures. It is a reasonable & cost-saving work division - because this way

everyone promotes the product that they know the best.

Quality Management

A high-quality product made of recycled materials.

Sustainability is an important topic for us. Because we treat resources carefully, they can easily regenerate. To make this possible we deliberately use recycled materials.

Even during the development of our products, we’re already considering the environment: a representative example are our partition panels for demountable partition system. They consist almost exclusively of recycled materials and count as one of our most high-grade products – with excellent acoustic, structural and fire resistance characteristics.

Designed with cradle to cradle lifespan in mind. zero waste on site with total offsite construction, BREEAM Assessed sustainability

Environmental management: ecologically valuable, economically sensible.

Every large company has to consider a healthy environment to be one of its top

goals. That is why we only use substances which are environment friendly.

Furthermore, we are consistently reducing emissions and energy consumption.

To uncover potential savings, we carefully consider each construction site –

targeted environmental management that pays off economically for our

customers!

Quality Management

With us, quality is a sure thing.

The quality assurance of our products is a significant aspect of our work. All the

necessary controls in the individual operations and at the construction sites are carried

out by our staff on site. The results are evaluated by the respective responsible parties in

regular quality checks. If needed, we will then initiate any appropriate corrective &

preventative measures. It is a reasonable & cost-saving work division - because this way

everyone promotes the product that they know the best.

We’re building on safety.

You can tell professional work from its results - and from the fact that it

includes the health protection of everyone concerned. We protect our

workers from accidents and strains on their health so that they can always

move on safe ground in our work places and on our construction sites.

What counts for us.It is important to us to satisfy our customers in every respect. for

example, by offering the best quality at competitive prices - backed

with the security of a financially strong company. How we achieve

this can be seen from our company figures.

Our customers can always count on us, because every day we

work on 100 construction sites for them together with our partner

companies who take care of such things as the perfect installation.

To get to our customers and their projects around the globe, we

have over 300 employees with more than 100 company vehicles.

While we are still working on the implementation of partitions and

doors at the construction sites, our 100 designers and developers

are already busy jotting down new ideas. At the same time we are

already manufacturing the products for the next project. For that,

we receive the necessary raw materials from approximately 500

suppliers. When we start our production on our 10,000 m2

production facilities the results are impressive. For the

15,000 tn of steel manufacture of partition & doors, we

manufacture more than 360,000 m2 partition per year. In addition,

25,000 tn metal coils are processed every year by us.

Where our products spendtheir testing time.In our department for research and development, we individually

adapt our products to suit our projects and test them for their

properties with respect to building physics. In this way we guarantee

that even unusual design meets the highest requirements regarding

construction, structural stability, acoustics and fire protection. Our

systems are certified for fire and acoustic performances as well as

structural functions. That way we can respond to special requests

quickly & professionally. It means that our customers always remain

flexible and profit from the best Norwood quality at the same time.

We test our products for the length of fire resistance with fire tests, e.g. according to BS 476: Part 22: 1987 Clause 5.
