One of the UK’s leading curtain wall specialists, based in Yorkshire, has been commissioned to design and install extensive glazed facades to several new supermarkets in a series of record-breaking deals for the company.

NG Developments (Normanton) Ltd, based in Normanton, one of the UK’s leading specialists in the design, manufacture and installation of architectural aluminium glazing systems has been asked to help construct three new glazed facades for a variety of supermarkets spread across the UK.

The new supermarkets include contracts for a huge Tesco store in Hanley, a Morrisons’ store in Openshaw and a Sainsburys’ venue in Biddulph, totalling in excess of 3500m² of Curtain Walling. These new business wins have added extra strength to NG’s growing portfolio of supermarket projects. In December 2009, NG Developments won the contracts for three Tesco stores in Skipton, Barnsley and Newcastle along with two Aldi stores in South Yorkshire.

Adrian Lee, commercial director at NG commented: “It’s no secret that the last two years have been a difficult time for businesses in general across the UK. However, towards the end of last year we started to win contracts for a number of supermarket projects, a sector still thriving, which has continued into 2010. In total, the supermarket side of our business has increased by more than 500%. As we operate in a very competitive industry, we’re thrilled to have landed these contracts.

Lee continued: “In recent months we have been busier than we have ever been before and this has resulted in us recruiting four new team members. Although times have been tough we are still completely committed to training our teams, so all of our fabricators are now qualified to a minimum of level 2 NVQ in the Fabrication of Glass Supporting Systems and our design team are about to take their accredited CDM (Construction Design and Management) courses.”
