India of Inchinnan

The office block was similar in style to Wallis, Gilbert and Partners' Hoover Building in Perivale, London.

[1] Due to the difficulties of getting staff to this isolated location, the company built 52 houses in Inchinnan, at Beardmore Cottages.

[1] The major part of the site and some of the buildings, including a large hangar, were purchased by India Tyres in December 1927.

The India of Inchinnan office block was saved from its dereliction when it was bought, renovated and extended by the software company Graham Technology (now ultimately owned by Verint Systems),[3] whose headquarters were located in the category A listed building.

The roof of the extension is a 1:1 scale replica of a section of the R34 and internal lighting spells out "R34" in morse code.

In May 2005, this was the only category A listed building in Scotland in Commercial use,[4] although that situation changed when The Wisegroup set up their headquarters at 72 Charlotte Street in Glasgow, in the Category A Listed former Lady and St Francis Secondary School [5][6] The building is now owned by Verint Systems,[3] housing the business unit previously known as KANA Software before their purchase by Verint in 2014.

[7] Prior to this, the building was occupied by the same business unit, under the names Sword Ciboodle and originally Graham Technology.
