Buildings used for education should be attractive and durable and this is why VMZINC is such an ideal material for the roofs and facades of these institutions. The need for high quality is possibly even more important in a school for pupils with Special Educational Needs. Halliday Meecham Architects renovated and extended Park Lane School in Macclesfield and one of the main materials used was QUARTZ-ZINC PLUS standing seam roofing and facades installed by VMZINC@WORK partner Longworth Building Services.
The Tiffin school in West London had a rotunda designed by Initiatives In Design with an elegant ANTHRA-ZINC PLUS standing seam roof built over 20 years ago. A second rotunda was later added again with ANTHRA-ZINC PLUS standing seam tapered roofing panels installed by VMZINC@WORK partner All Metal Roofing.
The aesthetic attraction of a non-painted metal such as zinc, its 100 year service life, a 96% figure of zinc being recycled and VMZINC roof system having passed Brooft4 external fire spread tests are a just some of the reasons for choosing VMZINC.
