Listers Projects deliver growth
Posted on 13/11/2014
“Listers Projects”, the commercial installation arm of Lister Trade Frames in Stoke on Trent, have recently completed a large contract in Droitwich for McCarthy & Stone Property Developments using Beaumont timber look windows and MetalTech curtain walling.
McCarthy & Stone are best known as the largest developer of privately owned retirement property in the UK. Over the past 30 years they have built over 45,000 apartments nationwide and regularly win awards for their work.
Glazing works carried out by Listers on the Droitwich project included over 250 Beaumont PVCu windows in white grained profiles. The Beaumont window system was designed by Dempsey Dyer Ltd to bridge the gap between PVCu and high-end timber windows providing authentic joint and corner details. It was these windows that impressed the buyers as they fully met their specification.
Working closely with the client’s site management team, Listers completed the full installation over a 4 month period. The timber effect windows were complemented by four Aluminium entrance lobbies using the MetalTech Curtain Walling system. The combination of traditional and contemporary glazing products delivered a pleasing and practical solution for the overall project.
Simon Lawrence, Listers Projects’ Commercial Installations Manager, said that “the scheme was challenging at times but very rewarding to work on. The works have resulted in an exceptionally well appointed building which delivered the client’s needs and fits well in the local community.”
Listers Projects have won a number of installation contracts this year due to their product range, reputation, full accreditation and their proactive approach to social responsibility. The division continues to develop lasting partnerships with a wide range of clients including Architects, Construction Companies, Property Developers and Self-builders and has reported a 77% increase in sales to September 2014.
