Reynaers Aluminium found a practical way of showing off some of its landmark works when it took a group of architects and façade consultants on a chartered cruise down the River Thames.
The 125 invited guests were able to view prominent buildings including Faraday House at Battersea Power Station, Nine Elms in Wandsworth, Vista at Chelsea Bridge, One Tower Bridge, Royal Mint Gardens in Tower Hill and Wood Wharf at Canary Wharf, all from the one floating vantage point.
Members of Reynaers’ consult team, along with Technical Director John McComb and Managing Director Richard Hall, were also on board to provide information about how the company works with architects, including providing specification support for products, and technical knowledge.
Head of marketing Samantha Hill said: “Taking in the view from the Thames offers a fantastic experience to see a number of striking projects from a unique perspective.
“The Thames is one of the best vantage points in the capital to take in the cityscape and offers stunning views, particularly of developments that demonstrate how glazed architecture and slimline architectural systems support design excellence.
“This was also a great chance to share ideas and discuss important topics within the industry. This included meeting regulations such as the Building Safety Act, as well as considering future developments in the architecture and construction industries, and progress in embracing sustainable practices.
