pecialist facade contractor, CCL Facades, has been awarded a contract to design and supply the curtain walling facade at Luminate Education Group’s new Harrogate College campus.

Building on the success at Pudsey Sixth Form, this project is a fantastic opportunity to further strengthen our experience within the education sector and to deliver a high-quality, modern and energy-efficient facade for the Luminate Education Group. Our expertise in specialist curtain walling and glazing will ensure the new campus has a striking and sustainable exterior that will benefit both the students and staff for years to come.”
