“ Post-build, Northern Private Hospital will become one of only a few Victorian hospitals to achieve the 4-Star equivalency rating in line with The Green Building Council of Australia’s (GBCA) Green Star Design and AS-Built rating tool ”
— ASSA ABLOY OPENING SOLUTIONS BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT MANAGER - STEVE AZZOPARDI
As part of Ramsay Health’s commitment to sustainability, the new hospital will follow an environmentally conscious pathway from the early concept, design and construction phases through to opening, operation and beyond. The build will incorporate recycled materials, solar power, energy efficient lighting, and fixtures, fittings and appliances designed for water conservation and energy efficiency. Due to Ramsay Health’s ongoing commitment to Environmentally Sustainable Development (ESD), the only logical choice for hardware was simple. ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions ticked many of those boxes, with many of our products being manufactured, using molten metal poured into dies locally in Victotria, manufacturing in the traditional sense which is rarely seen in Australia anymore. All manufactured with environmentally sustainable processes in place. ASSA ABLOY Opening Solutions products specified for this project include: 1800 Series, 220 Series, Selector Locks, and 2615 Cam Action Door Closers. Northern Private Hospital will be commissioned in early 2024, with further expansion of the hospital occurring over the next five years.
