A challenging refurbishment in Northampton required the Frameclad team’s expertise, resilience and adaptability to deliver on 40 new family apartments. Deploying their technical know-how, Frameclad designed, engineered, manufactured and supplied the light steel framing solutions, ensuring the project was completed to a high standard, on time and aligned to the client vision.

To combat the shortage of family housing in the well-connected Northampton area, former single persons’ accommodation block was chosen for regeneration and redevelopment by Northampton Homes. In need of an extensive transformation, the project demanded technical know-how and expertise to navigate challenges and deliver on the requirements of this development.
