Posted on by Anna Rainey

Metal Technology Ltd’s System 4-35 Hi Parallel opening windows were manufactured and installed by Visual Concept Ltd for this new build-to-rent residential scheme in Rugby’s Market Quarter, which consists of 360 apartments across four blocks. Designed by Maber Architects Ltd, the development features high quality, robust, natural materials, complementing the surrounding streetscape and transforming the former cattle market site. 
 
The development has greatly enhanced the appearance and character of the local area as well as providing much needed housing and regeneration.

Award-winning NUCASTLE Community Hub brings world-class facilities to the North East

Posted on by Anna Rainey

We were delighted to provide our architectural glazing systems for this fantastic, high quality community facility for Newcastle United Foundation. Founded on the back of the Newcastle United FC brand, the charity focusses on ‘transforming lives’ through high impact community programmes across the North East.
 
Entitled “NUCASTLE”, the new building opened in March last year, and is a state-of-the-art hub for sports, education and wellbeing, with a 3G rooftop football pitch, as well as digital learning suites and specialist classrooms, events and meeting spaces. Designed by Ryder Architecture and delivered by Robertson Group, the foundation’s new £8m home is also fully accessible, welcoming people of all abilities. Metal Technology Ltd supplied its System 4-35 Windows, System 10-35 doors and System 17-65 Curtain walling through trusted fabricator Crown ASL.
 
The project deservedly picked up Project of the Year (under £20m) at the 2022 CN Awards and was shortlisted for the 2023 RIBA Journal MacEwan Award. We are honoured to have played a part in the creation of this thriving and inspiring landmark venue.
