Planning permission for the 1,672sq m (18,000sq ft) high quality offices with parking for 100 cars, has been secured and Pochin Developments' sister company, Pochin Construction, will build the offices. Work is expected to start on the site in the next few weeks.
Stephen Isaacs, relationship director, RBS, said: "This is a prestigious development and once complete it will provide Tata's employees with an office working environment of the highest standard. We are very happy to provide Pochin with the financial support they need to undertake this project."
Martin Ashcroft, MD, Tata Chemicals Europe, said: "I am delighted that we can now proceed to create a new head office in Winnington as a sign of our continued commitment to centring our business in Middlewich and Northwich. This is an exciting time for our business, having recently acquired British Salt and re-branded as Tata Chemicals Europe. Now we will have a new office built to the latest environmental standards as well as developing a project demonstrating the use of zero carbon heating via process waste heat which forms an important part our wider carbon emission reduction plans ."
Bob Nicholson, head, property development, Pochin Developments, comments: "We are delighted with Royal Bank of Scotland's continued support of Pochin Developments in financing this prestigious project. Our experienced project team has engaged extensively with the client and stakeholders to ensure that the design and ultimately the completed building, is of the highest quality, sustainable and energy efficient. The design incorporates several unique principles for example, heating is provided solely by waste heat from the adjacent manufacturing facilities, and permeable surfaces and rainwater harvesting will also virtually remove surface water runoff."
Richard Smith, director of Chartered Surveyors, Fifield Glyn, who has advised Tata Chemicals Europe from the outset, said: "Everyone is pleased to welcome Pochin as Tata's preferred developer and this deal represents the culmination of a lot of hard work by all the parties. Tata Chemicals Europe can now look forward to the development of a new head office that will meet their brief for a sustainable building that forms part of their wider business objective of carbon emissions reduction."
Geoff Hope-Terry of The Weaver Valley Partnership, said: "This area has a lot of innovative people and some great companies and this project shows what can happen when the various elements come together. As well as introducing some exciting design 'firsts' into the structure, it's also good news for local jobs, both within the construction sector and for the ongoing position at Tata. My congratulations go to everyone involved."
