Sri Lanka-based manufacturer of state-of-the-art architectural aluminium joinery systems, glazing and façade products, Hayleys Unisyst, has successfully completed a fascinating construction, the 447 Luna Tower, a high-end apartment compound located at Colombo’s core.
Hayleys Unisyst, one of the leading providers of aluminium extruded solutions in the vicinity, was appointed as a sub-contractor in the 447 Luna Tower Project and was ordered to supply all the required custom-made aluminium solutions the high-rise demanded. The materialisation of this humungous apartment complex has crowned Unisyst as one of the most efficient service providers in the region.
This apartment complex is the first skyscraper in Sri Lanka to incorporate the largest continuous unitised aluminium curtain wall, an external façade system intertwined with an aluminium frame containing intermediate fillings of glass, thin composite panels or concrete spandrel panels and aluminium spandrel panels.
Alongside supplying the 3800 square metres of unitised curtain wall, Hayleys Unisyst was also responsible for providing an additional 6000 square metres of doors and windows and 530 square metres of frameless components for the 447 Luna Tower Project.
It was mentioned in a statement: “Given the current market disruptions, completing a project of this scale within the stipulated time frame seemed impossible initially. However, with the extensive experience of our in-house aluminium fabrication, construction, safety and quality assurance teams, we were able to complete the project on time.”
The Executive Director of Hayleys Unisyst PLC and Advantis Group, Janitha Jayanetti, illustrated: “Today, we are delighted that amidst the current economic challenges, we were able to offer aluminium solutions of the best quality for our client. It is a privilege to have contributed to such an important landmark in the Colombo skyline, like the 447 Luna Tower.”
Surpassing the achievable sustainability quota, the brand wisely introduced a skilled cleaning crew that took care of all the waste materials extracted during the construction phase. A specialist management team was appointed to look after the daily course of the project so that minimal waste generation could be achieved.
