Crafting Inspirational Environments in Education and Healthcare Buildings
In education and healthcare buildings, creating functional and aesthetically pleasing environments is crucial. At Truwood, we take immense pride in working closely with architects, designers and contractors to make this happen.
Over the years we have successfully provided joinery solutions to diverse projects, including student accommodation, the Technological University and the Mater Hospital in Dublin, and various private hospitals and clinics across Dublin such as Blackrock Clinic, VHI, St. Vincents and St. Raphael’s Clinic.
Tailored Installations for Student Accommodation
Creating welcoming and functional living spaces for students is a key aspect of our joinery services. We understand the importance of designing and installing furniture and fixtures that promote productivity, comfort, and durability. Our expertise covers a wide range of joinery elements, including wall panelling, screens, doors, reception desks, and storage units. By working closely with the designers and contractors, we ensure that our solutions align with their vision while adhering to the highest industry standards.
University Buildings | TU Grangegorman Central and East Quads
Our specialist joinery services also stretch to university buildings and campus. Grangegorman in the Technological University in Dublin is the largest investment in Higher Education in Ireland and it brings together many activities in one vibrant, cutting-edge campus. We were delighted to be involved in both the East and Central Quad buildings. The East Quad opened in late 2020, while the Central Quad began welcoming students in April 2021. The buildings are now fully operational and accommodate 10,000 students.
We supplied various elements to both these projects, including atrium wall panelling, recital hall panelling, soft tier lecture spaces, large teaching studios, forbo panelling, performance hall capping and panelling, and reception desks and panelling.
We take pride in our role in creating a conducive and aesthetically pleasing environment that enriches the educational experience of thousands of students.
Hospitals and Private Clinics
Over the years our work has crossed over into the healthcare sector where we have supplied specialist joinery services to various private hospitals and clinics across Dublin such as Blackrock, VHI, St. Vincents and St. Raphael’s Clinic. We also worked on a project in the iconic Mater Hospital Dublin.
The Mater Hospital Dublin
We worked alongside John Sisk & Sons and Scott Tallon Walker architects within this prestigious institution. The project required a comprehensive joinery solution to enhance its interior spaces and improve acoustic performance.
Working in a sensitive healthcare environment, this project required a lot of care and attention. Particularly with the installation of the acoustic panelling in the main atrium where a three storey scaffolding was erected in order to carry out the required works. Including three storey high wall panelling within the main atrium in the hospital, we also installed wall panelling in all corridors, lobby, reception areas and meeting rooms.
We also assisted Scott Tallon Walker in the design of the totally bespoke acoustic panelling which had to be elevated out from the wall within the atrium.
Our commitment to quality craftsmanship and attention to detail shone through in every aspect of this project.
At Truwood, we are dedicated to providing specialist joinery services tailored to the unique needs of the education and healthcare sectors. From manufacturing at our cutting-edge facility in Co. Monaghan to meticulous on-site installation, we bring expertise, precision, and an unwavering commitment to quality to every project we undertake. Whether it's student accommodation, hospital environments, or any other educational or healthcare facility, we strive to create functional, beautiful, and durable spaces that enhance the well-being and experiences of those who occupy them.
