Silverstone Experience, Northamptonshire

United Kingdom
TECHNAL’s curtain walling and Stormframe STII aluminium doors have been used to create an impressive, light-filled entrance to the state of the art Silverstone Experience building.

Ysgol Penyffordd, Wales

United Kingdom
Selected for their weather, thermal and security performance, TECHNAL aluminium curtain walling, windows and doors was specified and installed at Ysgol Penyfford - a £7 million-pound primary school located in the Flintshire villlage of Penyfford in Wales. This project has been constructed to BREEAM Excellent standards.

Stapleton House, London

United Kingdom

Stapleton House is a design and build project by Balfour Beatty Construction Services who created 862 high specification student spaces across nine floors in the large and logistically challenging student accomodation project in North London. 

The property is located by the very busy Holloway Road and therefore needed an enhanced acoustic rating for each elevation facing the public highway, as well as the achievment of high thermal, weather and security standard throughout. 

The fabricator Sealtite, along with the Technal UK technical support team duly delivered a proposal of Elegance 52 curtain walling and the Dualframe 75 Si windows and provided detailed drawings, strength calculations, thermal calculations and information on acoustic testing. 

 

Menai Science Park

United Kingdom
Located in Anglesey and operated by Bangor University, Menai Science Park is the flagship building for Wales' first dedicated science park.
