Highcross Shopping Centre

I-W secured their first major Eyetech contract in 2008, the Highcross shopping centre in Leicester, worth £2.1m  The project involved covering 6000m² of façade, an extreme challenge as a large part of this was a double skin mesh system incorporating galvanised posts.

Even with over 100 sheet types, 50 windpost types, 40 different bracket arrangements and some difficult access arrangements to contend with the I-W team still managed to complete the project  on time and within budget.

The aluminium perforated system installed at low level also proved interesting, however our involvement led to the development of the aluminium windpost which now forms an integral part of the Eyetech system available today.

I-W are the leading installers of the Eyetech system in the UK. Our dedicated team of fully trained, experienced installers have successfully completed a number of projects with differing mesh designs with a combined total of over 20,000 m², including multi story car parks, sub stations and a conference centre.
