Trent's Reconstructed Stone Cladding at Siebel Systems' European HQ
Trent Concrete designed, manufactured and erected 1700 square metres of reconstructed Portland stone cladding at the Siebel Systems European headquarters at Egham, prominently located adjacent to Junction 13 on the M25.
The £695,000 contract covered precast concrete cladding to the main entrance, staircases and shear walls. The main entrance is a radiussed concrete and glass tower, with individual glass blocks laid in the accurate openings formed by the acid-etched precast units. Trent also provided planter areas and low-level feature bands.
Trent Concrete's ability to meet the tight programme requirements with a high-quality product proved influential in securing this contract with Lovell Construction.
