Primark, Bristol

Client: Primark
Architect: TTG Architects
Contractor: Patton Fit Out
Type of works: supply of balustrades, handrails and glass walling from Sapphire Balustrades.

Clothing retailer Primark once again specified Sapphire’s balustrades, handrail and glass walling for its award-winning store in Bristol. The project, designed by TTG Architects of London, was awarded Store Design of the Year. Sapphire’s service and products contributed to the fantastic result.

Sapphire has worked with Primark for many years on projects across Europe. The successful and longstanding working relationship is based on Sapphire’s excellent product quality, backed by first-rate service and support.

Contractor Patton Fit Out said: “Sapphire’s technical expertise and contribution was invaluable. They helped to develop the client’s glass wall project into a practical solution which interfaced well with surrounding trades.” The contractor explained that Sapphire’s reliable service was: “particularly important in those final time-critical days and weeks when their rapid response really assisted in the timely completion of the work to a high standard.”

The project, completed in 2010, involved the installation of Sapphire’s Onyx balustrade and handrail for the stairs, and its Crystal balustrade and glass merchandise walling in the atrium.
