Southmead

Southmead Hospital

Southmead Hospital Redevelopment Project has received £430m worth of funding. It incorporates  the largest fire screens in the UK at around 5000m² and up to five stories high.


Clear Line were appointed to design, supply and install the fire rated steel curtain walling, fire rated glass, balcony balustrades and fire rated roller curtains. We worked closely with expert collaborators to provide this package on time and to budget.


The architects desired contemporary look was achieved with a variety of coloured glass panels built into the façade. The colours used were selected from a vast range of sample panels and along with all other materials included in the detailed purchase order schedule for delivery to site on a just in time basis. Thus avoiding unnecessary storage space and reduce the risk of site damage.

The management of the project was undertaken on several levels. Head Office Design and Procurement and on site Project and Installation Management. These activities were all overseen by a Clear Line Director to ensure the project was completed on time and on budget
