When Kingsland Drinks needed to create a dedicated bottling line production zone within their existing UK Manchester warehouse, they turned to Westgate Global.
The solution combined Flexiwall floor-to-ceiling partitioning, Hoardfast PVC office and storage space, and a full range of integrated door systems, delivering a BRCGS-compliant, branded facility with minimal disruption to day-to-day operations.
Kingsland Drinks have been producing wines and spirits in the UK since 1955. Specialising in a complete category solution, they work with top producers around the world while also creating their own unique brands, making efficient, well-organised production facilities essential to their operation.
Westgate Global had previously worked with Kingsland Drinks. Having been satisfied with both the high level of service and the quality of the product, Kingsland Drinks returned to Westgate Global with a new challenge: installing a full-height, floor-to-ceiling partition within their existing storage warehouse in Manchester, UK. The goal was to divide the space in two, transforming one half into a dedicated production zone to house a brand-new bottling line.
With extensive experience delivering temperature and dust control solutions across food and drink environments, Westgate Global recommended Flexiwall as the ideal system for the project. Operating in the food and drink industry means Kingsland Drinks must meet the requirements for BRCGS food safe accreditation, and Flexiwall was well-suited to support this. Manufactured from food-safe materials, it delivers an over 99% dust-tight seal and cleanly segregates production and storage areas, ticking all the right boxes from a compliance perspective.
Crucially, installation was quick and clean compared to traditional partitioning methods. Flexiwall occupies only millimetres of floor space, minimising disruption and reducing downtime, with operational schedules able to continue throughout the planned installation.
The Flexiwall partition itself included vision panels for visibility between zones, and Westgate Global also designed the wall to contain steel pedestrian doors and a fast-action door. A finishing touch saw the Kingsland Drinks logo added directly to the Flexiwall, creating a polished, branded environment for both staff and visitors.
The completed project gave Kingsland Drinks a fully compliant, efficiently organised production zone built for their new bottling line, storage accommodation, and a branded environment that reflects the company’s identity.
