Changi Airport, Terminal 1

Brintons has enjoyed a long and successful relationship with Changi Airport Group for more than 20 years and when the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) announced in 2008 that it would upgrade Changi T1 at an estimated cost of $500 million, Brintons’ reputation for handling and delivering complex, large-scale projects on time and within budget meant it was commissioned to supply the 54,000 sq metres of carpet that were required for the renovation project.

Woodhead – a company that Brintons has previously worked with to develop over 200,000 sq metres of impressive Axminster carpet across Changi’s T1 and T3 terminal buildings – was once again commissioned to lead the architectural master planning and interior design.

When the four-year upgrade is completed in 2011, the 280,000 sq metre terminal building will service approximately 21 million passengers and provide the ‘fully integrated, seamless and comfortable experience’ that passengers will expect from one of the world’s leading international airports.
