About the Project

Aviva Studios, the home of Factory International, is a cultural and entertainment space for Manchester.

For this project, spiral mesh was selected as the perfect solution for veiling the rooftop plant equipment, delivering a seamless aesthetic that integrates beautifully with the structural design. Each section of mesh was fabricated in full height units, and tensioned into place, negating the deployment of intrusive and costly steel frames.

The Eiffel 40 spiral mesh pattern was chosen specifically for its impressive 58% open area, allowing for optimal ventilation while maintaining an elegant appearance. Weighing in at just 4.8 kg/m², this lightweight solution offers both practicality and style.

Constructed from durable stainless steel, the mesh promises longevity and requires minimal maintenance, which is ideal for façade applications. Importantly, by using natural stainless steel rather than painting or coating the mesh, we have provided an incombustible façade which aligns with our commitment to sustainability whilst enhancing aesthetic appearance.

Copper is a material that provides excellent resistance to corrosion while at the same time delivering a modern and elegant, yet warm design, in both interior and exterior spaces. With this new finish, designers and planners will be able to create elegant surroundings that blend perfectly into the landscape and urban settings.

As this is a 100% recyclable material, it will help to reduce the environmental impact of their projects. In fact, studies conducted by the European Copper Institute have found that copper is a material that, during its production, handling, use and at the end of its useful life, complies with the European regulatory framework to generate the least impact on the environment and on people’s health.

Market Építo at Budapest

1,630m2 of Eiffel 40 metal mesh clads the offices of the Market Építő construction company located in Budapest, Hungary. The facade not only offers a strikingly attractive finish, it also filters the level of direct sunlight, providing comfort to the staff within.

Until very recently our spiral meshes were only available in natural finish stainless steel material - but thanks to recent technological advances we are beginning to offer aluminium and even copper material, along with powder coated and anodised finishes.

Copper is also resistant to corrosion and has great durability, even in coastal or industrial areas. When installed correctly, it does not require any maintenance or cleaning.
