Working with principal contractor Wates Group, Waterloo was chosen due to its ability to supply products that would accommodate the client’s preferred perforated ceiling tiles without any need for modification.

Matt Bell, Project Engineer with Wates Group, said: “Waterloo offered a professional service and brilliant support throughout the design stage of the build,”

“We were invited to develop the concealed grille solution at Waterloo’s integral testing facility, and they provided test reports to supplement the technical submission, this gave us confidence we were selecting the right product to meet the project requirements.

"Overall, the service we received was fantastic.

"The products were delivered on time, manufactured to a high standard and ultimately we handed over the building to a happy client.”
