Twickenham Stadium
Major ProjectsBACKGROUND
Working alongside the Facility Management team, we undertook the full roofing refurbishment project at Twickenham Stadium, which involved replacement of the existing GRP roofing which had surpassed its serviceable lifespan.
PIONEERING DESIGN
A polycarbonate sheet with a bespoke profile was specially designed for Twickenham Stadium to upgrade standard properties, from UV and infra-red protection to durability and impact resistance, to provide improved strength and increased longevity.

STADIA SPECIALISM
Given the height of the stadium, safety was a primary consideration, both for operatives on the roof and those working below, and a rigorous safe system of working was implemented.
Carefully planned programme sequencing enabled the stadium to continue its normal operations, from matches to concerts, without hindrance or any issues for the public. Working directly above the stadium seating meant there was a strict daily cleaning regime, to ensure spectators were not impacted.
SUCCESSFUL OUTCOME
The successful completion of this project, with the bespoke polycarbonate sheet, empowered us to confidently tender for further stadia roofing replacement projects.
