Scope
Inner City Scaffolding was appointed to deliver temporary containment and leading-edge safety solutions for the restoration and adaptive reuse of Gas Holder No. 2, which was the world’s oldest surviving gasholder and a Grade II listed structure.
Working in collaboration with DSM Group, ICS supported a highly specialised regeneration programme involving bespoke internal and external scaffold systems, environmental management controls, and phased access strategies. The project required precision planning to accommodate heritage sensitivities and future integration into a wider mixed-use development.
Key Deliverables
- Temporary Roofing & Containment: Engineered roof system to protect restoration works and maintain environmental control
- Safety & Access Solutions: Leading-edge scaffold installations designed for safe working at height and complex geometry
- Integrated Support Package: Scaffold design aligned with restoration phases; environmental management systems
Outcome
This project highlights Inner City Scaffolding’s capability in delivering heritage-led regeneration access solutions. Through technical innovation, collaborative delivery, and strict compliance with conservation standards, ICS enabled safe and efficient restoration over a 10-month programme. This project paved the way for the gasholder’s transformation into a new communal landmark.
