DK Tools is proud to announce its partnership with Constructionarium, a pioneering not-for-profit training facility based on a 19-acre site in North Norfolk. Constructionarium offers students studying built environment courses a one-of-a-kind, hands-on learning experience by simulating real-world construction challenges.
The innovative training facility allows students to step into the role of contractors, building scaled replicas (approximately 30ft in size) of iconic projects and structures, such as London’s Gherkin, in just five days! The site is divided into four colour-coded project zones – red, green, yellow, and blue – and DK Tools has generously donated its Amtech Flexi Tubs range to match each zone’s colour.
Students at Constructionarium have the option to choose from 17 exciting projects, including replicas of renowned landmarks such as Barcelona Tower and Canary Wharf Underground Station.
Ricky Johal, head of marketing & e-commerce for DK Tools, commented: “This is a fantastic initiative from the team at Constructionarium, enabling students to gain practical experience in managing real-world construction projects in a controlled, safety-first environment. By being briefed and tasked with objectives such as delivering projects on time and within budget, students develop valuable skills that will serve them throughout their careers. We’re thrilled to support this initiative with our Amtech Flexi Tubs range, a relatively new category for our company, and this partnership highlights the durability and versatility of our products in action.”
