A1S Group Delighted to win Four Landmark Projects
In terms of iconic projects, we really are spoilt for choice this month with what is further recognition for our Flameshield fire shutter and fire curtain range. We had highlighted London Selfridges’ refurbishment, Edinburgh’s new John Lewis development, the stunning new (subject to NDA) Museum in Stratford and of course the majestic Katara Towers in Doha and hoped to win at least one of the projects.
Paul Caldwell-Jones, A1S Group Head of Sales and Marketing said, “To win all four projects is testament to A1’s growing reputation as a world leading fire shutter and fire curtain manufacturer and installer.“
A1S Group Export Manager Mark Dougill was particularly fulsome in his praise for Al Thuraya our Qatari partners who initially secured the Doha fire shutter package. “The Katara Towers will undoubtedly become one of the world’s most iconic structures,“ he said, “I am delighted to see our Flameshield shutters installed as a pivotal part of the fire strategy.” The imposing structure is an architectural translation of Qatar’s national seal representing traditional scimitar swords.
Flameshield fire shutters, in particular Flameshield FS240 JMs are to be manufactured and installed as part of the fire strategy for the John Lewis £20 million fit out in Edinburgh and Flameshield EW120 fire curtains are required for the (subject to NDA) Museum in London. This product retains the highest radiation performance for a UK fire curtain and is C1 class tested which is why it was selected by the design team at MCLH.
