Goodwood - The Modern Home Of Rolls Royce

Rolls-Royce has now found a new, modern home in Goodwood. Goodwood is located at Greenfield, a place that is quite close to Goodwood Motor competition circuit. Goodwood is situated in the enchanting Sussex Downs, making Goodwood an appropriately encouraging location to make outstanding cars. The news is that Rolls Royce is considering expanding its unit to produce more cars.

Goodwood is the brainchild of Sir Nicholas Grimshaw and associates, the world famous architects. The manufacturing unit as well as head office is flat and lowly built to reduce the impact (of production and emission) on nearby countryside.

Goodwood Is Constructed Using Natural Materials.

Architects have made a point to use environment friendly, natural materials to construct the buildings. For instance, the roofs of the buildings are covered using many sedum plants. They change color with every season.

Also, these eco friendly roofs are the United Kingdom's biggest living roofs (living roofs are the roofs made of plants, shrubs, creepers). Thus, this roof serves as a natural territory for birds and birds. When you see this building from air, you may not be able to view Goodwood building.

The outer walls are covered with cedar lovers. They are mainly used for two purposes, soften the outer walls and automatically adjust to different intensities of ambient light. It helps in protecting the workers working inside the manufacturing unit from the harsh glare of the sun.

The Goodwood building gives an impression of a 3-sided patio. The manufacturing as well as administrative units bear huge stretches of glass, giving the visitors an enchanting, fascinating outlook of constructed Rolls Royce displayed on assembly line.

The huge stretch of glass used to construct the building ensures that huge amount of sunlight is bathed in assembly line. It reduces the requirement of artificial lightning (saving of electricity). In addition, water used for different purposes such as air-conditioners and so on, is recycled using a clever design method.

The building houses several up to date machineries, with the help of which workers produce the planned design using materials such as metals, leather, and wood and so on. There are two clean rooms in the building, which incorporates, and work using spraying robots. Skilled technicians, who work effortlessly to produce the output with highest standards, look after the assembly line.

Therefore, if Goodwood is built using highest standards then the Rolls Royce cars produced will also be of optimum levels. The careful outlets used in the factory ensure that the impact on surrounding is negligible. The paints used here are water based and long lasting. The company has a special unit located at the outskirts of London where wood veneers are taken to lacquer.

To reduce the traffic inflow and outflow at Goodwood, a vigilant logistics and component collection office has been put up at Oxford Hub (BMW Groups). This office at the Oxford hub ensures that heavy goods transfer is taken care of and kept to bare minimum.

Thus, these features make Goodwood a unique headquarters in automobile industry and truly a fitting home for one of the esteemed car company in this planet.
