Project Overview
Phoenix Building Systems recently delivered a bespoke, high-performance modular solution to meet the growing operational demands of Jet2 at Bournemouth International Airport. The project consisted of a two-storey, 16-bay modular building, fully compliant with Building Regulations and tailored to the client’s specific requirements for both office and welfare functions.
Project Purpose
The client required a modern, efficient and fully operational building to support its ground crew and administrative operations at Bournemouth International Airport. The aim was to create a central hub that combined both staff welfare amenities and office space within a single, cohesive structure, enhancing workflow, staff comfort and day-to-day operations.
Design & Build Features
The new facility was delivered using Phoenix’s proven modular construction techniques, allowing for fast-track delivery without compromising on quality or compliance. Key features of the building include:
Two-storey configuration: maximising use of limited airside space
16 modular bays: forming a spacious internal layout that accommodates a range of functional areas
Full Building Regulations compliance: ensuring the facility meets all required standards for safety, accessibility, and energy efficiency
External Finishes
A strong focus was placed on durability and aesthetics for the external façade. The client selected a two-tone grey plastisol cladding finish, well-known for its long-lasting, low-maintenance properties.
Main cladding colour: Goosewing Grey
Complementary elements (fascia, plinth, doors and UPVC windows): Merlin Grey
Plastisol was chosen for its excellent protective and decorative properties. With a lifespan of over 30 years, it resists fading, scratching, and corrosion—making it ideal for the challenging airport environment.
Outcome
Delivered on time and to specification, the new modular building provides Jet2 with a robust, fit-for-purpose facility that supports both current operations and future growth. The project highlights Phoenix Building Systems’ ability to deliver high-quality, tailored modular solutions in complex, operationally sensitive environments such as airports.
