Case Study: Secondary glazing for Tele Data offices in Wythenshawe

For this office refurbishment project, the team at Droylsden Glass travelled to Wythenshawe just south of Manchester. The Tele Data offices were in need of refurbishment and our client had decided that secondary glazing would be the best option to improve energy efficiency and reduce noise pollution.

Tele Data offices Manchester Airport City Enterprise Zone

The Tele Data offices are situated at the former Shell HQ, Delta House within Manchester Airport City Enterprise Zone. Such close proximity to one of the world’s biggest and busiest airports meant that the office environment was prone to a high level of noise pollution.

To reduce noise transmission and create a quieter interior working environment, secondary glazing was the perfect choice. At Droylsden Glass, we have installed high performing secondary glazing on a wide variety of both domestic and commercial properties. From offices to apartments, secondary glazing is a great option when you want to significantly reduce noise levels.

Granada Secondary Glazing: lift out and horizontal sliding models

At Droylsden Glass, we use high quality secondary glazing from Granada Secondary Glazing. For this project, we used a combination of 56 horizontal sliding SS2 secondary glazing units and 41 lift out units to improve the performance of 159 of the Tele Data premises’ 6th-floor windows. All the units were fitted with clear low-E toughened glass to improve safety and help reduce solar glare.

The secondary glazing units were finished in brilliant white to match the existing window frames and were attached to the interior windowsill and ceiling to ensure that the exterior appearance of the property was not impacted by the new windows.

Another positive commercial customer review

Our clients for this project were delighted with the quality of the new secondary glazing and the immediate benefits they experienced from the improved performance of their building. They left us this glowing customer testimonial that is testament to the superior quality of both the products we use and the skills and experience of the Droylsden Glass team.

‘We had secondary glazing fitted to 159 of our 6th-floor windows, it’s a great product installed by a great team, would have no hesitation in recommending Droylsden Glass and 100% will use them for any future work.’
