Bouygues Energies & Services, a subsidiary of Bouygues Construction, have handed over a state-of-the-art manufacturing cleanroom facility to Novanta, in Taunton, a global technology partner for medical and advanced manufacturing industrial equipment. 

Designed to process Beryllium, a highly unique material, the brand-new manufacturing facility is one of only ten of its kind manufacturing facilities existing worldwide. The facility features end-to-end solutions for polished and coated Beryllium optics, a key component across a broad spectrum of mission-critical applications.

Bouygues Energies & Services won the contract to design and build the multi-million-pound cleanroom manufacturing facility with a total GFA of 2777m². The company solution encompasses construction, fit-out, electrical, and mechanical services, commissioning, and validation.
