Wrightstyle systems installed at Malta university project

The leading UK steel and aluminium glazing company Wrightstyle has supplied and installed advanced systems for a newly-opened university faculty in Malta.

Wrightstyle supplied some 570 sq metres of 60 minute fire-rated curtain walling for the University of Malta’s state-of-the-art Information and Communications Technology (ICT) department, which was part-funded by the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).

Wrightstyle’s thermally-efficient and Low E systems, which also included fire-rated doors, are to protect two internal courtyard atria, and were supplied in large-span configuration.

The ICT building has 4,000 sq metres of floor space and, apart from teaching and research areas, provides a secure environment for the University’s servers and supercomputer clusters.

“Although we export our systems worldwide, it is rare for us to carry out installations overseas – a testament to our reputation for quality and ability to work to very short design and procurement timeframes,” said Lee Coates, Wrightstyle’s technical director.

Wrightstyle has also carried out project-specific live bomb testing, videos of which can be viewed on its YouTube channel.  The company has successfully tested its systems against 500kg of TNT-equivalent explosive, the size of a lorry bomb.

The company also offers a complete design, fabrication and installation service – a one-stop solution that allows for faster project turnaround and, by shortening the supply chain, a cost-efficient service.
