Services
Curtain walling
Our curtain walling solutions provide non-structural external glazed faades with thermal efficiency and aesthetic appeal. Designed for commercial buildings, these systems integrate with other building elements while ensuring compliance with regulatory standards. Our in-house design team utilises BIM technology to optimise configurations for each project's specific requirements.
Mental health windows
Patented Safevent windows address anti-ligature requirements in supervised care environments. Tested to extreme conditions, these windows prevent contraband transfer while maintaining ventilation standards. Fitted with tamper-resistant hardware, they've been installed in NHS facilities and private healthcare providers across five continents since 2007.
Security fencing
Fortress 80 fencing offers anti-climb, anti-ligature boundary demarcation for sensitive sites. The system combines unobtrusive design with structural integrity, featuring optional cloaking for visual integration. Custom configurations meet specific security classifications while maintaining environmental aesthetics.
CoWin interactive panels
Interactive de-escalation tools empower service users and staff in secure environments. Available in two configurations, these panels feature durable, safety-certified interfaces that support autonomy within controlled settings. Designed for custodial and mental health facilities, they integrate with existing security protocols.
Rainscreen cladding
Custom rainscreen solutions combine substrates like stainless steel, copper, and composite panels with thermal insulation systems. Engineered for durability across diverse climates, these faades provide both functional weather resistance and architectural expression while meeting building regulation requirements for fire performance.
