Reynaers UK lends sponsorship to the Manchester Society of Architects for strategic awareness

Reynaers Aluminium UK has announced its sponsorship of the Manchester Society of Architects as part of its commitment to supporting architectural excellence in the North West. Reynaers' aluminium curtain walling systems are already in use on prominent buildings in the city.

The company aims to raise awareness among developers and architects of its aluminium systems and bespoke services while providing guidance on the latest building regulations through this partnership.

Reynaers' curtain walling systems have been implemented in notable projects across the Manchester skyline. One such example is the Great Marlborough Street development, a towering 37-storey building that is part of the 'Student Castle' initiative. To achieve this, Reynaers' ConceptWall 50 (CW 50) and Concept Wall 60 (CW 60) curtain wall systems, along with specially designed capping details, were utilised.

The aluminium windows and doors maker supplied the X1, X2 and X3 Media City towers with bespoke ConceptWall 65-EF curtain walling and ConceptSystem 77 HI window systems, creating a stand-out visual impact for Salford Quays' landmark buildings. They also provided aluminium systems for other notable projects such as the Middlewood Locks development, Two New Bailey Square, and the New Wakefield Street Tower.

Darren Peel is a skilled Consult Project Manager at Reynaers, responsible for overseeing projects in the North West, West Midlands, and Scotland. He collaborates with a variety of professionals, including architects, contractors, consultants, developers, project managers, and design teams, to tackle project complexities and find effective solutions. Darren's expertise and experience make him an invaluable asset to the Reynaers team and their clients.

He simplified for the audience: "As a company that strives to support architects and construction professionals in achieving the most innovative and sustainable facades possible, Reynaers Aluminium UK is delighted to be a key sponsor of the Manchester Society of Architects."

The Vice Chairman of the Manchester Society of Architects, Paul Iddon, reverted: "Reynaers is a great partner to have on board given the huge level of experience, learning and support that they can bring. Reynaers covers everything from a large residential complex to a hospital or office development, and this depth and range of expertise support everything from CPDs to interpreting and fully understanding regulations."

"This expertise and advice is invaluable for our members from a regulatory point of view, such as the Building Safety Act, in helping to choose the right product for the job," he added.

"Partnerships such as this allow the Society to support architects in the region, covering everything from lectures to CPDs, meetings and events," Iddon concluded.
