KING EDWARD BARRACKS STAGE 1, CHRISTCHURCH
KFI were appointed by Hawkins Construction in association with Warren and Mahoney, RLB and Aurecon to engineer, procure, manufacture and install the various facades on the prestigious KEB Project in Christchurch for Ngai Tahu Properties. The KEB 1 project comprised a 5 level building with a unitised curtain wall façade installed in a traditional fashion to 3 elevations, and installed in a frameless cantilevered saw tooth arrangement on the east façade.
White glazed custom extruded ceramic tiles were manufactured and installed into the unitised panels to fit within the modulation of the overall façade design. High performance (triple coated low E) double glazing was sourced through our supply chain, giving excellent thermal and solar control properties to the façade.
