6500m2 of Optima TFC in 2.0mm Reynolux Pre-Coat & 2.0mm Aluminium Axalta PPC has been used in the completion of the £36 million student accommodation on Norton Street, Liverpool.
The Reynolux Pre-Coat was chosen due to its Euroclass A1 Fire Rating. The material was recommended by Sotech to ensure panel flatness and consistency throughout. Pre-coat is a tensioned levelled material which is perfect for maintaining a flat facade
The scheme named ‘Calico’, located in Islington is 400m from both Liverpool John Moores University and the University of Liverpool and will house a total of 748 students across three blocks of eight, eleven and fifteen storeys.
With a striking eye-catching façade, the project has created a new landmark building on the Liverpool skyline.
The Optima TFC has been independently tested and accredited to CWCT standards.
