The standing seam for new head quarters - Kalzip
Kalzip has provided the standing seam for a new 'highly energy efficient' headquarters for social housing provider mhs homes.
The company was also on hand to provide technical support to deliver the challenging design of the monopitch shell roof which arcs over to become an external wall, which itself features a series of varying radii and window modules the same width as the Kalzip sheets.
The designer, James Glapin of Hazle McCormack Young LLP, said: 'The Kalzip roof forms one of three critical elements of the design and is deliberately articulated from the other façade materials by the virtue of its profile and shape.
The new structure also uses less than a quarter of the energy of a similar sized air-conditioned building.
