Aluminium manufacturing and installation company, AB Glass<\/a>, has started work at Glassfields, the former Guardian Exchange building in Bristol for Kier Construction<\/h2>\n

The three-acre site, known as Glassfields, refers to its former use as the original glassworks site of the \u2018Bristol Blue\u2019 manufacturing company.<\/p>\n

Royal London Asset Management<\/a> has refurbished the historic Broad Plain terrace, with plans to develop the cleared site on Temple Way to build a 200-room Jury\u2019s Inn. Royal London Asset Management is currently developing two of the four plots on the site \u2013 plot 2 and 4.<\/p>\n

AB Glass previously worked on plot 2, delivering a 21,000 m sq office building, which was designed to provide flexible working space. AB Glass was again appointed to carry out the work on plot 4, which began in November 2019.<\/p>\n

The company is providing the design, manufacture and installation services on plot 4 at Glassfields. The aluminium manufacturing systems being used by AB Glass for the project include the Kawneer AA100 curtain wall<\/a>, AA540 windows and AA540 and AA190 doors.<\/p>\n

David Snell, operations director at Kier, said: \u201cWe are delighted to be working with AB Glass on the delivery of plot 4.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe standard of service is always of the highest quality, which is exactly what we require. It is very exciting to see the level development in the centre of Bristol at present, and we are pleased to be working on the delivery of two key projects for the area.\u201d<\/p>\n

Alan Brayley, managing director at AB Glass, added: \u201cWe are very happy to have been providing our manufacturing and installation services to plot 2 of this project for some time, and as a result of our team\u2019s high level standard of work, we are proud to have been contracted to also carry out work on plot 4.\u201d<\/p>\n

Glassfields development<\/h3>\n

Glassfields is a 36,500 sqm net office space on a brownfield site<\/a> adjacent to Bristol\u2019s inner ring road and close to the floating harbour.<\/p>\n

The brownfield site, which included a former 1970s office building and is within the Enterprise Zone, is being developed to provide a new commercial zone centred on a new urban space.<\/p>\n
