Varming Consulting Engineers have recently been appointed by the Irish Diary Board as part of an overall design team headed up by RKD Architects for the design of their new butter production and packing facility in Mitchelstown County Cork.

The proposed 6,000m2 Centre of Excellence will include a state of-the-art butter production and packing facility and a New Product Development, Innovation and Customer Presentation Centre.

Subject to planning approval it is envisaged that construction of the new facility will begin before the end of 2014 and be completed by March 2016.
