Crowning glory

When Crown Commercial Windows were looking for help with meeting planning requirements for an apartment building in Plymouth, Eurocell provided the solution.

The planners were looking to retain the visual appearance of John Sparke House – an affordable housing development situated at the heart of Plymouth’s historical Barbican district.

Planners granted permission to install windows and doors fabricated using the Eurocell Eurologik Ovolo profile system, in Black Ash. They thought that it would guarantee a perfect colour match throughout therefore enhancing its visual appeal.

Planners also felt that the shape of the Eurologik Ovolo profile gave the best visual match to the existing black-stained timber windows.

Owned by Tamar Housing Society, the existing timber framed doors and windows on John Sparke House had deteriorated beyond repair despite regular and ongoing maintenance. The Eurologik Ovolo windows and French doors were fabricated and installed by Crown Commercial Windows in Black Ash externally and white internally, to complement interior décor without the need for painting.

“Being able to offer a complete solution from Eurocell played a crucial part in helping us to win this prestigious contract in the heart of Plymouth’s historical district,” said Brian Coles, commercial sales manager at AGS Home Improvements / Crown Commercial Windows. “It was a major advantage that the planners preferred the aesthetics of the Eurologik Ovolo system with a Black Ash finish, while being able to source all the items from Eurocell gave us distinct commercial benefits.”
