It is the contractor’s fifth project at Reading’s 95-acre Green Park business estate.

ISG recently relocated its Reading office to Green Park to support its expansion in the Thames Valley and M4 corridor.

This latest win sees the firm carry out a comprehensive Cat A fit out and reconfiguration of the five-storey structure at 450 South Oak Way. It will deliver 102,000 sq ft of Grade A office accommodation, providing flexible options for single or multi-tenanted occupation.

Major structural alterations include a new entrance and an improved open lobby area, as well as the addition of a two-storey cantilevered extension at level three. Four link bridges will be installed across each of the upper levels within the main atrium and a new staircase will connect ground to first floor levels.

ISG is targeting a BREEAM Excellent environmental performance rating for the refurbished office building through the use of high-specification building materials and the installation of new mechanical and electrical services.

Paul Cossell, managing director of ISG’s Fit Out and Engineering Services business, said: “We are seeing continuing growth in the volume and scale of project opportunities within the region as businesses take advantage of reduced set up costs and the excellent transport and communications infrastructure. Our Reading office continues to service ISG’s longstanding international customer base, but is also making major inroads within the regional office market as owners, developers and occupiers recognise the significant benefit of working with a highly experienced and innovative sector specialist.”
