external envelope Clearly impeccable hospitality
Newcastle’s multi-million pound Crowne Plaza Hotel, designed by Space Architects achieves its 21st century look with due respect to its historic Tyneside site using architectural aluminium glazing systems from Metal Technology. The glazed facade and striking, seven-storey atrium were constructed using Metal Technology’s System 17
capped high rise curtain walling, bringing lead architect Andy Roberts’ vision to life in terms of both aesthetic and performance. Complying with the latest British Standards, System 17 provides structural integrity, weather performance, thermal enhancement and complete design versatility.

Nationwide makes Step change for charity
Leading public sector and new build door and window supplier Nationwide Windows & Doors is extremely proud to have been involved in the renovation work at specialist centre for children with motor disorders, Steps – work which has now been completed, to the benefit of both children and staff. Nationwide’s journey with Steps began last year at the inaugural BCEMA Awards – hosted by Efficiency East Midlands (EEM) – where the company revealed its intention to supply and fit new windows worth £10,000. The old, single glazed, steel frame windows have now been completely replaced with fully efficient double glazed PVC-U models, with work completing just after Christmas, in time for a celebratory party, featuring children’s favourite, Mr Tumble. Adrian Pavey, Commercial Director at Nationwide Windows concludes: “It’s well documented that old windows can have a detrimental effect on the health and wellbeing of a building’s occupants, even down to how they feel about themselves, so it was an easy decision to do our bit to help this remarkable local charity.”
