The challenge

Our scope incorporated two different façade treatments, each with its own appearance and installation requirements. The perforated cladding and brick-slip systems needed to be installed accurately across their designated areas while maintaining a consistent standard of workmanship. With no additional project constraints recorded, our primary consideration was the careful execution of both façade packages in accordance with the project requirements and the intended external finish.

project goals

Our goal was to complete the specialist façade installation package in accordance with the project requirements and intended architectural finish. Our defined objectives were:

  • Install the perforated cladding system across the designated façade areas.
  • Install the brick-slip system across the relevant sections of the building.

the result

We completed the installation of the perforated cladding and brick-slip systems at Bunhill Energy Centre. The finished façade package combines two contrasting treatments, with the perforated cladding creating a distinctive external finish and the brick slips providing a complementary masonry appearance. Through this specialist scope, Simbi Ltd contributed the required façade installation expertise to the wider project for Colloide Engineering Systems Ltd in Islington, London.
