The project involves redeveloping a vacant former industrial estate into 24 new homes featuring a range of sustainable measures, including 100% energy efficient lighting, use of natural ventilation and heat recovery (NVHR) and a glazing design that makes appropriate provision for overheating.
Additionally, water efficiency and solar gain measures will also be taken while materials used will be A- and B-rated according to the BRE Group's Green Guide to Specification.

The site has been designed by Adam Roberts with security and sustainability at its core and Polyteck will utilise a range of sustainable measures during the construction phase. The Group is responsible for the demolition of the existing building, pile foundation work and the construction of different types of accommodation. Other features will include private parking spaces and a refuse store.
John Polycarpou, chairman, Polyteck, said: "This is an exciting scheme to be playing a crucial part in and Polyteck is perfectly placed to ensure its success. By replacing a vacant industrial estate with safe and sustainable homes, the Burnt Oak development will be a valuable asset to the local community."
