Hybrid system is just the ticket
21st April 2015

Window and curtain walling solutions from SENIOR ARCHITECTURAL SYSTEMS’ Hybrid range has proved to be just the ticket for use on a new Park & Ride scheme in York.

Installed by Aire Valley Architectural Systems for main contractor Balfour Beatty, Senior’s Hybrid Series 3 curtain walling and Hybrid Series 1 windows have been used as part of the creation of the two new terminal buildings at Poppleton Bar and Askham Bar.  The construction of Senior’s Hybrid range, which combines the durability of aluminium externally with the environmental benefits of timber internally, made it the ideal choice for use on the striking timber clad buildings and has helped contribute to the project’s overall BREEAM rating of ‘very good’.

The system has been complemented by the use of top-hung Hybrid Series 1 composite casement windows, with careful consideration being given to their size and position to minimise heat loss and maximise solar gain. The Hybrid system’s use of certified PEFC timber and excellent insulation properties has further contributed to the scheme’s sustainable design, which also includes a green nature roof and the use of natural ventilation.

Senior’s robust aluminium SD doors, which are ideally suited to high-traffic commercial applications, completed the prestigious contract.
