Projects | The Solaris Centre in Blackpool

One of the country’s first low energy buildings, The Solaris Centre in Blackpool, features Alwitra’s Ultimate Single Ply Roofing System, which has helped to achieve the architect’s specification for outstanding sustainability and energy efficiency.

Only products which could offer such extreme sustainability, long life performance or energy efficient qualities were considered for the structure, which will be established as a respected centre of excellence for environmental issues. It will attract visitors from business sectors, energy and sustainability professionals and senior academics who are expected to see the building as a benchmark for the future. Alwitra’s Ultimate Roofing System was specified by Blackpool Borough Council Architects’ Department and Mellor Architects because of its assured and proven long term performance qualities. Every Alwitra roof has a life expectancy in excess of 30 years, making it a firm favourite with local authority specifiers looking to meet their Egan responsibilities and formulate long term best value performance plans.
