Jan 2010 - Aquarian to Supply Gebrik for Student Accommodation in Islington.

Aquarian Cladding, the UK's only supplier of the Gebrik Insulating Brick Cladding System, has been awarded a contract to supply materials for a Unite student accommodation project in Islington.

Designed by architect Hadfield Cawkwell Davidson, the new James Leicester Halls building will provide 580 bedrooms for the 2010/2011 student intake at London Metropolitan University, as well as 1,000 square feet of commercial space.

Aquarian will be supplying 2,200m² of Gebrik Metropolitan Multi, designed to replicate the colour and texture of a traditional London yellow multi stock, with the first deliveries due on site at the end of February 2010.
