West Kelowna

This pre-engineered 32,390 sq ft, four-story steel & concrete structure was designed for large scale wine production. The project included significant site works in addition to the building, including crush pads and an advanced winery waste processing system, consisting of a bioreactor and filtration beds. Along with state-of-the-art winery equipment, the building houses a VQA-certified wine laboratory, nitrogen generator, 15,000lb capacity drive-through freight elevator and 500lbs/sq ft loading capacity on the second floor.

The interior is climate controlled, specifically to suit wine production, with R-40 walls and R-60 roof for efficiency. Stainless steel piping was installed underground for the transfer of wine and a Kingspan cooler/freezer was also added, with the ability to blast-freeze to -30 deg Celsius. Food grade epoxy coating was applied to all contact surfaces for antimicrobial protection, cleaning efficiency & general durability.

Other features include:
· Custom boardroom with terrazzo floor & inset bronze logo
· Screened outdoor equipment deck on second level
· Custom high-volume water filtration system to suit wine production
