Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj International Airport – Terminal 2 (Mumbai)
Terminal 2 of Mumbai’s international airport is one of India’s most iconic aviation infrastructures, designed to handle millions of passengers from all nationalities with seamless efficiency and world-class amenities. The project demanded engineering precision, strict safety compliance, and coordinated execution across multiple zones—all in a high-security environment.
Inner Space was entrusted with multiple interior infrastructure packages across different phases of the terminal’s development and operations. The scope included- raised access flooring, large-scale metal ceiling installations, and modular toilet cubicle systems—each executed to meet the stringent quality and performance standards of airport infrastructure.
Scope of Work
01. Raised Access Flooring – Security & Technical Zones (Year 2010)
Bare Tile Flooring: 50,000 sqft
- Installed in high-footfall areas such as security check zone and baggage drop.
- Designed to support heavy passenger traffic, equipment loads, and continuous operational movement.
- It enables organized underfloor routing of electrical, data, and security cabling.
Laminate Finish Flooring: Approx. 8,000 sqft
- Installed in aero-bridge server rooms and technical zones.
- Provides static control, durability, and easy access for maintenance and repair.
02. Metal False Ceiling – Parking Level Lobbies (2010)
- Area: 80,000 sqft
- Material: Aluminium ceiling system
- Material Brand: Hunter Douglas
The parking lobby ceilings required large-scale, durable, and visually consistent metal ceiling systems.
- Precision installation ensured uniform alignment across massive ceiling spans.
- Systems were designed to integrate lighting, ventilation, and service elements seamlessly.
- The result was a clean, structured ceiling solution suited for high-traffic public infrastructure.
03. Stainless Steel Toilet Cubicles – Parking Levels (2025)
- Total Cubicles: 70 units
- Executed: 24 units (Phase completed)
- System: Full stainless-steel cubicles with LED indicator lights
- Panel Construction: SS 304 panels with Aluminium honeycomb core
- Hardware: Switch circuit indicator locks with LED occupancy lights
These cubicles were installed to meet the durability, hygiene, and maintenance requirements of busy airport parking facilities.
- Stainless-steel construction ensured corrosion resistance, strength, and easy cleaning.
- LED indicator locks improved user convenience and occupancy visibility.
- The modular systems meant clean, fast and precise installation in and active operational zones.
Execution Highlights
