Engineered and installed a robust, high-capacity HVAC and Fire Safety system for a new, two-story NDURE superstore in Karachi. The project was designed for durability, energy efficiency, and uncompromising safety to handle the demands of a high-volume, mass-market retail environment with large open spaces and extensive stock.

A Complex Engineering Puzzle
The main challenge was to provide effective and economical climate control for a very large retail footprint (over 15,000 sq. ft.) with high ceilings and a massive inventory of shoes and apparel. The fire safety system had to provide comprehensive coverage for both customer-facing areas and dense back-of-house stockrooms, which represent a significant fire load.
Innovative & Efficient
We deployed a series of high-capacity, energy-efficient rooftop packaged AC units, which are ideal for conditioning large, open-plan spaces and are known for their reliability and low maintenance requirements. For fire safety, we installed a comprehensive, zoned fire alarm system with beam detectors for the high-ceiling retail floors and heat detectors for the stockrooms. A complete wet-pipe sprinkler system was installed throughout, ensuring full coverage for both patrons and inventory.
Key Project Outcomes
Provided consistent and powerful cooling across the entire superstore, ensuring customer comfort even during peak seasonal rushes.
Engineered a cost-effective HVAC solution with low long-term operational and maintenance costs, ideal for a value-focused brand.
Ensured comprehensive fire safety coverage for a high-risk, high-fire-load environment.
Delivered a highly durable and reliable MEP system built to withstand the demands of a high-traffic retail operation.
“Our stores are big, busy, and built to last. We needed MEP systems that match that philosophy. Their team delivered a powerful, no-fuss solution that keeps our customers comfortable and our stores safe. It's a robust, reliable system that just works.”
