Clugston Construction is building an extension to the national distribution centre of workwear and safety equipment supplier Arco. The 220,000sqft extension, which is part of Arco's £55m investment initiative, will double the company's current warehousing and logistics capacity in Hull, UK.

Syed Ali, Aarsleff's project manager, said: "We have benefitted from a thorough preliminary trial piling exercise carried out on site in early April ahead of the main works to provide the information required by Clugston Constructions consulting engineers (HBPW LLP) to design the overall pile layout.

"We are on target to deliver another successful project for Clugston Construction with whom we share a good longstanding working relationship."

Aarsleff is installing over 3000 No. precast concrete pile, 250 and 350mm, up to 21m in length with its Junttan Pmx22 and Banut 700 rigs. Aarsleff is on site with four rigs and a 70t hydraulic crawler crane.
