Barking Riverside

Introba is providing mechanical, electrical, plumbing, and sustainability services to the Barking Riverside mixed-use development in Barking, UK.

This phase of London and Quadrant's Barking Riverside redevelopment is one of London's largest new residential hubs, creating around 11,000 new homes. 

A third of the site will be affordable housing and 65,000 m² of commercial, retail, and community facilities. Included in the scheme are a new build secondary school and up to four primary schools, public amenities, and a major new highway.  

Introba (formerly Elementa Consulting) is providing full MEP and sustainability strategies on a phase of the development for 227 dwellings. The project has challenging performance targets, with a budget and design optimization at the forefront of design requirements.  

The project team is using digital design to ensure service routes and cupboards are condensed to maximize space for new homes, benefiting aesthetics and return on investment. 

The development aims to showcase sustainable urbanism and communities, abiding by pioneering sustainability requirements.
