The capital Quarter project was a reclad of a non-compliant facade system to bring the project up to the requirements of the Approved Document B. The project utilised over 5,000m2 of VitraDual in 3 standard metallic colours to replicate closely the original installation formed into cassette tray panels and installed using colour matched pan-head fixings from the Vitrafix range.
