Delicate Server Room Renovation

For a major renovation of one of the server rooms at GlaxoSmithKline in Rixensart, Belgium, GSK partnered with Alteco Europe to replace the existing computer access floor.

The critical server room remained fully operational throughout the renovation.

The computer access floor in the server room was 15 years old and no longer met the required standards due to the increasing weight of the server racks. Chris Buyzen, Computer Rooms Floor Manager, and his team therefore decided to renovate the server room in phases, as it houses a large amount of critical equipment on which thousands of GSK employees depend.
