In an ambitious move that signals a significant expansion, I-Scaff Access Solutions has announced the commencement of construction on a new £1.2 million headquarters in Glenrothes, Fife.

This strategic development comes as part of the company’s broader plan to enhance its operational capabilities and service reach across Scotland, particularly the West Coast.

Ross Brown, Managing Director of I-Scaff, shared insights into the journey towards this momentous milestone. “After an eight-month wait due to planning approvals delayed by Fife Council staff shortages, we’re thrilled to break ground on our new headquarters,” Brown stated. The development, sprawling across 1.5 acres, is a testament to I-Scaff’s commitment to innovation, sustainability, and local collaboration.

Designed by D. Stewart Contracts/ARV Design, the headquarters will be constructed by REALM Construction with a focus on utilising the local supply chain. “REALM has indicated project completion and entry by the end of October 2024,” Brown added, highlighting the anticipated swift progress towards the new facility’s operational status.

The Glenrothes project will feature a 660m2 bespoke building encompassing new office space, internal storage, a Heavy Goods Vehicle (HGV) service bay, and meeting/training facilities. Additionally, a 5640 m2 concrete yard area is set to streamline the servicing of equipment and vehicle loading operations.

I-Scaff is also exploring opportunities to establish a satellite yard in the Lanarkshire area. This strategic addition aims to service contracts across the West Coast more efficiently and reduce travel requirements for staff commuting to Fife. “Collectively, these efforts are poised to significantly reduce our carbon footprint,” explained Brown.

The decision to anchor the new headquarters in Glenrothes underscores I-Scaff’s dedication to its roots and the local community. “Staying in Glenrothes was crucial for us. We’ve built our business around our staff and local clients. For those reporting to the HQ daily, it was important to maintain their commute,” Brown highlighted.

As I-Scaff Access Solutions embarks on this ambitious project, the company reaffirms its commitment to growth and sustainability and strengthens its position as a leading player in the system scaffolding industry. With these developments, I-Scaff is poised to significantly enhance its service delivery and operational efficiency, marking a new chapter in its illustrious history.
