Finsa’s 164,000 sq ft Birkenhead HQ completes

Glencar Construction has handed over the wood manufacturer’s new home, which features a 5,000 sq ft timber office building as well as a large dockside warehouse.

The UK division of Spain-based Finsa will move to Peel Ports’ Grandidges Quay from Dock Road about a mile to the east, consolidating its operations.

The development features a 159,000 sq ft warehouse and a two-storey office building and integrates photovoltaic panels, battery storage, and rainwater reuse systems, alongside electric machinery, and sustainable timber.

A full Cat B fit-out will deliver office, showroom, and trade counter spaces.

The project sits within West Float, part of the Wirral Waters masterplan. Chetwoods is the architect, and Hydrock the structural engineer. The scheme was unveiled in summer 2022, with the contractor search initially being launched later that year.

Tom Kearsley, North regional director at Glencar, said: “This facility not only supports Finsa UK’s long-term growth but also demonstrates what can be achieved through strong collaboration, technical expertise, and a shared commitment to sustainability.

“We are proud to have delivered a scheme that will have a lasting positive impact on both our client and the wider Birkenhead community.”
