We are proud to beworking on this £43 million contract, where we are providing around 2000 meters of metal and glass balustrades. The design was worked up by us in conjunction with the project team to give a contemporary balustrade system that was cost effective.

267 new affordable homes are being built for Greenwich Wharf Ltd, part of the London and Regional development group in the prime SE10 postcode of Greenwich, London. We have developed our own aluminium extrusion for the top handrail to allow easy maintenance. We have also secured additional works which include privacy panels between balcony's.

The project is part of a wider development that will be known as Greenwich Wharf and will include private apartments including penthouses, a 100 guest room hotel, a landmark office building, retail units and a health club with swimming pool. Once complete, Greenwich Wharf will be one of the premier riverfront destinations in the London borough of Greenwich.

To meet the government’s renewable energy requirements, renewable energy systems are incorporated including ground source heat pumps to provide heating and hot water to all homes and the buildings will have a combination of ‘green’ and ‘brown’ roofs to attract local wildlife to the area. We have our own continued development of our EPOD Micro CHP system and development of a solar fridge with Solar Polar Ltd for Aid Agency's

The project is anticipated for completion by early summer 2010.
