Pioneer Point
Ellesmere Port, UK
Bob Fletcher, of Fletcher Architects, Manchester settled on Colorcoat HPS200® pre-finished steel to clad this large development.
The building was given a strong banded facade in three colours - Merlin, Hamlet and Goosewing Grey - while “feature” items such as the building’s corners were fitted out in Wedgewood Blue. The colour and durability of Colorcoat HPS200® made it ideal for the exposed and salty conditions of the Mersey estuary.
Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra®
Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® pre-finished steel provides exceptional performance and corrosion resistance for building envelope applications. Guaranteed for up to 40 years it is backed up even more extreme testing and real world global data to demonstrate it’s super durable characteristics.
