security doors and top roofs , but worked with us consultatively to engineer a robust , clean and energy efficient system that would look visually impactful and fit with the site ’ s geothermal surroundings .”
Result
The sleek look and feel , best-inclass materials and energy efficient architecture of the Essential Plus + products met atNorth ’ s requirements for a customisable , robust and high-quality containment solution .
Moreover , it would enable it to standardise and quickly scale across new sites , using a methodology that delivers increased security , performance and sustainability . This is a pivotal approach and has informed the design , construction and development of its third climatepositive data centre in Stockholm .
“ Subzero Engineering has given us a standardised , repeatable and physically secure containment system , which fits well with our own philosophy ,” said Jóhann Þór Jónsson .
“ It has offered us a flexible containment solution , focused on both performance and efficiency , but which is easy to customise with the changing requirements of our intensive computing customers .”
Further , the synergies between the companies were clear from the outset , both having values ingrained with pushing the boundaries of performance , sustainability and energy efficiency .
Subzero ’ s containment solutions would not only contribute towards atNorth ’ s industry-leading low PUE , but its approach would deliver exceptional value : establishing it as a long-term partner for the company ’ s high-performance , sustainable , colocation services .
“ As a business , we ’ re always focused on the long-term objectives of our customers and we choose to work with companies whose values are aligned with ours ,” said Jóhann Þór Jónsson .
“ Subzero Engineering remained serviceminded , agile and worked to truly understand our business : providing a consultative , value-add and intricate data centre solution that meets our demands for performance and efficiency both now and in the future .” ◊
