Reynaers takes to the Thames to showcase city projects to architects

  • 30 Jul 2024

Reynaers Aluminium gave architects and facade consultants a guided tour of some of its high-profile projects during a cruise down the River Thames to demonstrate how the company supports design-led projects.

The aluminium doors, windows and facades specialist invited 25 guests from its architectural partners on the picturesque experience to gain an insight into some of the prestigious projects it has been involved with in London, discussing the products used, design specifications and the support offered by the company technical specialists.

Projects on the tour included Faraday House at Battersea Power Station, Nine Elms in Wandsworth, Vista at Chelsea Bridge, One Tower Bridge, Royal Mint Gardens in Tower Hill and Wood Wharf at Canary Wharf, amongst others.

Taken out on a chartered boat, the group were given information packs containing key details of each project on the tour, complete with QR codes linked to further information relating to the buildings and the specific products used.

Members of Reynaers’ consult team, along with Technical Director John McComb and Managing Director Richard Hall, were also on board to provide information about how the company works with architects to support their vision during construction, including providing specification support for products, and the technical knowledge offered to ensure performance standards.

‘A unique perspective’

Samantha Hill, Head of Marketing at Reynaers Aluminium UK, says: “Taking in the view from the Thames offers a fantastic experience to see a number of striking projects from a unique perspective.

“The Thames is one of the best vantage points in the capital to take in the cityscape and offers stunning views, particularly of developments that demonstrate how glazed architecture and slimline architectural systems support design excellence.

“This was also a great chance to share ideas and discuss important topics within the industry. This included meeting regulations such as the Building Safety Act, as well as considering future developments in the architecture and construction industries, and progress in embracing sustainable practices.”

As a manufacturer of aluminium doors, windows and facade systems, Reynaers solutions are frequently specified for high rise projects that need to demonstrate the performance requirements vital for tall buildings.
