Energy
With more than 40 years' experience designing, manufacturing and constructing bespoke buildings, Rubb can support the energy sector with facilities for storage, processing, and maintenance.
Our high-quality membrane materials and post-production galvanized welded steel frames deliver durability over time, making the cost of maintaining a Rubb energy support facility more economical compared to conventional structures.
Translucent membranes allow natural daylight to illuminate the energy equipment storage space while the white roof surface reflects heat. Optional Thermohall® insulation minimises heat transfer, prevents condensation and virtually eliminates thermal bridging and air infiltration.
Rubb offers a variety of different door solutions. They can be selected and designed to suit specific energy operations. This flexibility ensures that our clients get the best option for their selected custom Rubb facility.
Energy warehousing & processing facilities can accommodate all types of door, ventilation and other systems and safely support high loads imposed by overhead cranes, ceiling-mounted HVAC and fire-suppression systems, fall-protection equipment and other superimposed loads.
Rubb energy industry support warehouses can rapidly designed, manufactured and relocated due to module pre-fabrication. Rubb can provide site supervisors or fully dedicated construction teams to complete any custom project.
Our established supply chain streamlines co-ordination of delivery and installation. Pre-fabricated elements and the ability to construct our buildings in a variety of environments and weather conditions speeds up the construction process.
Rubb personnel are on hand to provide help and support, from initial contact to quotation, installation and beyond. Rubb’s commitment to customer service continues after project completion and forms the basis for long-term customer satisfaction.

Rubb can provide custom designed building types in a variety of configurations and sizes to suit your energy operations.
The BVR features rectangular leg and roof box sections. This takes up less space and provides more overall internal clearance. This design is a popular choice for bulk storage buildings.
BVE structures feature lattice frame sidewalls and can be designed with single or multiple lattice roof pitches. Span widths start from 20m to 40m, by any length.
The BVC is designed with a vertical column leg and a lattice frame roof. This structure type offers a large clear internal area. 40m to 100m width spans are available.
The BVL type structure has vertical lattice frame sidewalls and single or multiple lattice roof pitches per span. Large spans start from 40m to 100m in width, by any length.
With over 45 years experience of designing, manufacturing, and constructing custom energy projects we have built relationships with high profile clients worldwide.
Rubb Buildings have developed a biomass facility that can be rolled out globally across the renewable industry sector and we would be more than happy to recommend their services to any prospective client.

We are very satisfied with the shelters, which are solidly built. I would recommend Rubb to other companies if they are looking for the same kind of shelters.
