Aston Martin’s Brand New Facility at Silverstone

The iconic Silverstone Circuit, based in Northamptonshire, has been buzzing with excitement as Aston Martin unveils its brand-new facility on the site. This facility is the result of a visionary £200 million redevelopment project that has propelled Aston Martin’s capabilities to new heights within the world of motorsports and Formula 1.

In June 2023, Aston Martin officially launched its new headquarters on Dadford Road, just a stone’s throw from the Silverstone Circuit. This marked the initial phase of the brand new facility, covering an incredible 400,000 square feet.

What truly sets this facility apart is its approach to sustainability and employee well-being. Aston Martin has crafted not just a building, but an environment that embraces sustainability and well-being at its core. With enhanced insulation, ample natural lighting, and energy-efficient air-source heat pumps, the building operates to reduce energy consumption and makes it the most sustainable campus F1 has ever seen.

Yet, the facility doesn’t stop at sustainability. Beyond the gleaming structures lies a space where physical and mental health are a priority for the team at Aston Martin. A comprehensive wellness program awaits all staff within the facility’s sprawling 400,000 square feet expanse. The inclusion of a fully-equipped gymnasium, personal trainers, and tailored fitness programs demonstrates the team’s dedication to nurturing the physical health of its members.

The newly unveiled facility is only the first phase of an ambitious journey. Phases two and three of the project are already underway, and they promise to redefine the boundaries of technology and innovation within the motorsports arena. Set for completion by the end of 2024, these phases will introduce a new wind tunnel, simulator, and an exhibition space.

What did Abbey Pipework provide?

We’ve played an integral role which we are so proud to be a part of. As an essential contributor to the Aston Martin facility’s construction, we have delivered our expertise and dedication to ensure the success of the project.

Abbey Pipework have been delivering pipework to the site for some time now, and made our last delivery just a couple of weeks ago.

Working from initial sketches, we were delighted to fabricate pipework for the new site. We provided CHW & LTHW pipework at 21/2”nb and above for the Air Source Heat Pumps, AHU and Fan Coil Circuits. Once the pipework was fabricated we then arranged for it to be dropped off at the facility, which was then installed by our client.
