ALUMINIUM: SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS FOR SPECIFIERS

Aluminium is perfect for your building project. It is a corrosion resistant, 100% recyclable material with a unique combination of characteristics and many technical benefits.

We passionately believe that aluminium curtain walling, doors and windows provide the most suitable visual and technical solutions for today’s buildings. With its low weight, high strength and endless design possibilities, our commitment is to develop architectural aluminium systems that enhance the built environment whilst maintaining a simple approach to fabrication and installation.

We offer Elegance 52 for high-rise installations and Dualframe Window Wall for façade glazing.

ADVICE ON INSTALLING ALUMINIUM FITTINGS

Our team of field-based project consultants work closely with our in-house contracts design and administration team to provide architects, specifiers and main contractors with expert guidance and assistance. We can advise on the application of products, implementation of building regulations, British standards and other issues such as product specifications, usage, maintenance and safety. Complementary to this, our product support department has a vast resource of knowledge and experience on every aspect of our product range.

CLOSE MONITORING OF MANUFACTURING AND INSTALLATION

We also understand that the specification process is influenced by client demands to obtain best value. We are keen to participate in site visits, design meetings and financial planning. Design stages can be formalised through written specification documents and supported by samples, literature and drawings for consultation or planning issues.

Taking this hands-on approach through the whole project allows close monitoring of manufacturing and installation, ensuring the architect and specifier always has professional support from a worldwide group. Drawing on one of the largest fabricator network in the UK, we can even provide details of specialist contractors who will quote or tender competitively for any type of contract

ACCREDITATIONS

We view standards and accreditations as the minimum level that should be attained. Each of our aluminium window, door and curtain walling ranges are tested to the relevant quality standards including static and dynamic weather performance. BS Kitemarks and Secured by Design are just some of the accreditations held by our ranges. Full details of all of our accreditations are available on our website.

BOMB-BLAST AND FIRE-RESISTANT ALUMINIUM

From new build to refurbishment, housing to industrial, healthcare to educational, public sector to PFI - we have the support systems and product ranges to deliver solutions to all applications. Even environments where personnel safety is a prime concern are covered by our bomb-blast and fire resistant ranges.
