George Green Library, Nottingham university
4th July 2017

The New George Green Library at the Nottingham University Campus has been extended and refurbished with a new curtain wall facade supplied by ALUPROF UK.

Aluprof’s MB-SR50N EFEKT curtain wall system was specified for the project which ensured no horizontal capping visible and that the vertical cappings were emphasized. These deep capping’s were cut between floors at 45º to offer a pleasing facade around the complete building.

Aluprof’s technical team worked with BDA Facade consultants to deliver a thermally efficient solution for a complex detail requirement. The new library now has a BREEAM Excellent rating.

The £20.5 million refurbished library offers space for 8,000 linear metres of books and periodicals, has taken almost three years to complete. It was officially opened by Prince Andrew on the 17th March.
