Leading aluminium supplier sees its products selected for large-scale South
Posted on 16/11/2017
Leading aluminium systems manufacturer, Hueck has supplied its products to a large-scale, mixed-use development in Elephant and Castle.
The development, named Elephant One, is situated in a prime location: close to the Elephant and Castle tube station and next to Elephant Park, offering convenient links to the city centre and great surroundings.
Elephant One is comprised of three buildings in total and includes 374 new homes and 272 student housing units as well as a variety of shops, restaurants, leisure facilities and a new Sainsbury’s supermarket. A marketplace is also found at the centre of the development and a basement car park is available.
For this project, Hueck supplied developers Oakmayne Properties with three of their products. Hueck’s Trigon Unit L façade system is a thermally insulating design and was used to construct the building’s outer façade.
This product was also used in conjunction with Hueck’s Lambda WS 075 window system and their Lambda DS 075 door system.
Leon Friend, Managing Director at Hueck UK, comments on Hueck’s involvement with the project: “Over the past few years Hueck have worked on a variety of residential and commercial projects in central London and we were delighted to be asked to supply our products for the Elephant One development.
“At Hueck, we believe that our products set the bar not just for performance but also for appearance: our systems offer slim sightlines and a sleek aesthetic in-keeping with the look of the Elephant One buildings. Aluminium is also especially durable, which will help the development to maintain its sleek, contemporary appearance in the future.”
Hueck UK has recently supplied its high-quality systems to the eco-friendly Hoola development on Tidal Basin Road, a student accommodation tower next to Wembley stadium, and the city’s ‘Mini Manhattan project’, to name just a few.
Founded in 1814, Hueck now has offices in 13 different countries and is one of Europe’s largest manufacturers and suppliers of both aluminium window, door, and façade solutions. These products can also be manufactured to either standard or bespoke specifications.
