SDM Architects is one of the leading industrial architects in Mumbai, India

SDM Architects has extensive experience of projects in the industrial sector.  We believe that an industrial architect should first understand a production process in great detail, and then design the building to suit this process.  The building is only an envelope that enables the smooth functioning of the industrial process.

SDMA is also experienced in Master Planning of Industrial Complexes.

For every industrial building, SDMA will study the following in detail:

• Raw Materials: how they are brought in, unloaded, and stored
• Production Process: as industrial building designers we study the production process in great detail. This is the heart of the entire operation, and if this is not understood correctly, the project will fail. Our job is to provide you with the perfect environment for production. The production logic and production efficiency always rules supreme in the design of this environment. The next step is to create a workplace in which workers feel energised, happy and positive.
• A Place for ​People: people are at the heart of the system, and if they are depressed and unhappy, production will suffer. A well-organised, beautiful and systematic work environment creates a positive vibe in the workforce, which will result in better production speed and quality, and also reduce turnover in the staff.
• Circulation Efficiency: if 250 people are made to walk an extra 1 minute to the toilet, that is a loss of over 15,000 man-hours per year! Therefore an idustrial architect should take great pains to ensure the efficiency of an industrial building design.  Similarly, the path of movement of materials should also be optimised
• Finished Goods Storage: a well-designed finished goods warehouse with proper storage heights and accessways is essential to the functioning of a manufacturing plant
• Packing and Loading: are also vital areas that should be designed carefully.  The industrial architect should plan a layout with the correct movement corridors and turning spaces, especially if forklifts are used.
• Utilities: are the backbone of your plant.  Do you need captive power, backup power, and emergency power?  How about compressed air, vacuum, or gas supply systems? Firefighting systems are a key requirement for safety. SDM Architects works with the best building services engineers in the industry to specify high-qualiity, low-maintenance equipment and also to design buildings that house these securely and allow easy maintenance.
• Sustainability: SDMA has for years been designing buildings that make full use of natural lighting.  These days, the science of sustainable design has grown by leaps and bounds and we have kept pace.  Read more here.
• Materials: Materials must be selected to resist the wear and tear that they will be subjected to, as well as designed for the electrochemical environment they are in. As a factory owner or operator, your investment in the plant needs to have lasting value with minimal maintenance costs.
  
  

Good industrial building design is a marriage of architecture and engineering. Beautiful yet simple design, combined with lots of natural light, and elegant landscaping is our mantra for the design of factory buildings.
