During the coronavirus crisis, the company came up with a new rapid Covid-19 test kit, which are now being exported all over the world.
The new Eagle Park facility will be used as a packing facility for the test kits. It will also be used as a production base for Nutrivitality, a subsidiary of SureScreen, which makes a range of liquid nutritional supplements.
DSP, which is based on the Parker Industrial Estate, in Mansfield Road, was commissioned by SureScreen after completing other successful projects on Eagle Park, including an award-winning project for Robinson Structures.
As the unit was little more than a shell, DSP Interiors worked in partnership with the team at SureScreen to provide a multi-faceted turnkey solution and transform the unit into a full production facility with support spaces.
Alastair Campbell, director of SureScreen Diagnostics, said: “We appointed DSP to assist with the design and fit-out of a new-build production facility for our Nutrivitality nutritional supplement.

“The fit-out needed to be designed around production flow and quality systems, whilst maximising efficiency of product process through the building.
“DSP were particularly helpful in researching and finding solutions to several of our requirements and even though the layout changed a couple of times, they assisted in redesigning the services to the rooms, layout plans and offered their advice from their extensive experience in previous builds and fit-outs.
“Once the work started, progress was swift and was very well-managed.”

Andy Priestley, director of DSP, said: “It’s been a pleasure to work with SureScreen Diagnostics on this innovative project on Eagle Park.
“We worked in partnership with the team there to transform an empty unit into a dedicated production facility with extensive support services, which will enable the company’s planned expansion to continue.
“It’s also great to see that the space is currently being used in the fight against Covid-19 and I’d like to wish Alistair and the team at SureScreen every success in the future.”
