GRP Concierge Desk & Halo
January 2009 saw the official opening of Barclays Bank's flagship branch. The 'Bank of the future' located in London's Piccadilly Circus was part of a major refurbishment programme undertaken by the bank across its entire network.
Being a flagship branch they obviously wanted to ensure that the interior design was of the highest standard and we were delighted when the contractor assigned with the task of fitting out the branch approached us with a view to producing the GRP outer shells for the concierge desk and halos.
A few weeks later a number of wooden skeleton frames were delivered to our premises ready for our GRP moulding to be constructed around.

Whilst many other materials would have struggled to conform to the shape and curves of both the desk and halo the flexibility of GRP made it an ideal solution.
Once the shells had been constructed our client collected them from us and took them away to apply the finishing touches prior to installation.
Some time has now elapsed since the flagship store opened it’s doors and we are now pleased to say that the concierge desks and halos can now be spotted in many branches across the UK.
