Sirna & Sons Produce installs innovative, sustainable building elements
The design team relied on Metl-Span's insulated metal wall panels for the building envelope.
Wholesale foods distributor Sirna & Sons Produce provides fresh fruits and vegetables direct from growers to restaurants, healthcare facilities, hotels, country clubs and institutions across five states. Placing a high priority on quality, freshness and timely deliveries, the family-owned company targeted a multi-faceted expansion of its headquarters and distribution facility in Ravenna, Ohio, in 2016. The project provides over 43,000 additional square feet of refrigerated warehouse and over 12,000 square feet of office space.
Project manager and designer Nik Sirna from Peninsula Architects, Peninsula, Ohio, was challenged to create a budget-friendly plan that blurred the line between modern and industrial aesthetic, while implementing innovative, sustainable building elements.
