If you have ever stepped foot in one of Lush’s distinctive high-street stores you will know that the retailer places great stock in creating a unique shopping experience for customers.

Triplar was recently asked to help bring that experience to life with the fit-out of seven stores in the UK and Ireland.

The project involved completing the shop interiors, including shell, ceiling, floors and back-of-house storage racking and fittings. The team then installed all furniture, metalwork and display items.

The stores are situated in Grafton and Henry Streets, Dublin, Ireland; Newry, Northern Ireland; Exeter; Stratford-Upon-Avon and the Bluewater and Meadowhall shopping centres. Triplar also installed new flooring in the Metrocentre and High Wycombe stores.

Triplar project manager Darryl Sweeney said: “Lush is a very interesting client to work with because of the exacting specifications they have for each and every store. We have to work closely with the design consultants and Lush to make sure we meet their requirements exactly.

“They need to know every aspect of the store’s built environment tallies up with the ethical criteria and standards that are so important to the company and its products.”

Triplar managed to turnaround some of the stores much quicker than required. And despite being delayed by the discovery and removal of asbestos, Triplar completed the Exeter store in just eight days.

Last year Triplar fitted out Lush’s flagship ‘Lush Spa’ in King’s Road, Chelsea. The individually designed store included treatment rooms, showers and a customer lounge.

Darryl added: “Our work with Lush over the past year illustrates Triplar’s versatility. We can move seamlessly from one-off ‘concepts’ to the roll-out of identical stores throughout the UK and Europe.”
