Shutters Secure Leisure Centre Against Vandalism ImageHolders Provide Slim & Sleek Dispenser
193
ImageHolders was commissioned to custom design and build a display solution for Terminal 5 at Heathrow Airport. It was imperative that the dispenser stands were delivered to the highest specification to meet the rigorous airport requirements; in terms of aesthetics, safety and stability. The displays needed to be robust and sturdy enough for the busy airport environment, but not look out of place in the contemporary, stylish new Terminal 5 building. In order to meet with the strict safety requirements, the units had to be completely fireproof, with no void compartments and no removable fixings. The simple, slim and sleek aluminium dispenser stands with bold graphic headers allow the guides to be easily visible from a distance, while the stands remain unobtrusive in the busy airport walkway.

China Calls on UK Expertise for World’s Largest Traditional Clock
Smith of Derby has been commissioned to create a traditionally weight-driven clock with world’s largest ever dials for the city of Ganzhou, South East China. The Harmony Clock Tower will feature an unprecedented 12.8 metre diameter dial on each of its four faces and will be driven by a unique mechanical movement. An innovative third hand charts the Chinese lunar chapters. Smith of Derby, which boasts a rich heritage in clock making dating back to 1856, will produce one of its iconic Whitehurst timepieces for the prestigious project. The design will break new ground in terms of size, accuracy and aesthetics when it is unveiled at the end of June. The clock integrates the latest world-class technology, utilising the most energy efficient long lasting materials available today, such as stainless steel faces, carbon fibre hands and toughened steel gears. It will be automatically wound, with a bell striking hourly and to mark sunrise. The final design incorporates the messages that ‘Time is Fair to Everybody’ and ‘Everyone should Treasure Time’ which were taken directly from the Mayor of Ganzhou’s public announcement of the project. Smith of Derby was selected by the Ganzhou Expressway Company following a trade mission to China and briefings to city leadership. It was tasked with creating ‘the world’s most exquisite traditional clock’ which will become the centrepiece of a new business, residential and recreational park. President Liu of the Ganzhou Expressway Company said: “Smith of Derby has been awarded the design and manufacturing contract for what will become the world’s largest mechanical clock for my company, Ganzhou Expressway Company Ltd. My team selected Smith of Derby following a highly competitive and thoroughly investigated research into their capability and creativity. Their professionalism, flexibility and work are world class.”
