Airedale rolls out 360° virtual facility tour
08/07/2016 Airedale International Air Conditioning Ltd
Leading British cooling specialist Airedale International has launched an interactive 360-degree virtual tour of its new manufacturing facility in Rawdon, Leeds, which has a BREEAM 'Very Good' rating in recognition of its environmental credentials.The virtual tour which uses the same technology as Google Street View, lets users step inside every aspect of the new redeveloped manufacturing and administrative facility, which was completely rebuilt following a fire in 2013.
A navigation tool guides users through a number of individual areas of the new HQ, allowing them to explore the 23,000 square metre facility (a footprint equivalent to 3 Wembley football pitches side by side). Highlights include:
-€¢ Manufacturing Lines - the tour lets users take a deep dive into the various aspects of the manufacturing process for chillers and precision air conditioning units. From aluminium sheet to final assembly line, with many precision and quality checks along the way, users can experience the manufacturing journey of Airedale's units before they go out for dispatch.
-€¢ R&D Test Centre - the tour offers an insight into the multi-million pound 1,323m² R&D Test Centre that sets the standard as one of the most advanced of its kind within the global air conditioning industry, and one of the biggest in Europe. Capable of testing a complete range of air conditioning equipment, including precision air conditioning to 250kW and chillers up to 2MW, within a temperature testing range of -20ËšC up to 50ËšC, the facility ensures guaranteed accuracy of data and performance.
-€¢ Training School - the tour allows users to look inside Airedale's dedicated training classroom and three workshop areas (air conditioning, brazing, electrical) where students have access to fully operational air conditioning units and components.
Explaining the reasoning behind the new virtual tour, Clive Parkman, Managing Director, said:
"We believe that openly showing people where and how our units are made will make a lasting impression, and continue to speak volumes about Airedale's commitment to quality and craftsmanship in the most transparent way. The Airedale 360Ëš facility tour gives us this opportunity."
