EUROBRICK’ S TECHNICAL EXPERTISE DELIVERS PRECISION FINISH FOR MCDONALD’ S BUXTON
PRECISION STONE CLADDING FOR A CONTEMPORARY BUXTON LANDMARK
Eurobrick Systems recently supplied its X-Clad cladding system together with specially sourced stone slips for a new McDonald’ s restaurant in Buxton, working closely with long-term client A. E. P.( Modular Construction) Limited to achieve a high-quality finish on a complex and technically demanding project.
Although the completed building appears simple at first glance, the design featured multiple stone sizes and detail bands running around the structure, demanding meticulous estimating and layout planning and design input to ensure perfect alignment of the components.
Eurobrick’ s 25mm X-Clad system was installed onto sheathing board, providing a robust, insulated backing for the stone finishes. In total, Eurobrick supplied 419m ² of cladding, with the stone sourced to complement the local architecture and meet planning conditions.
The finish included two types of stone slips and additional stone features:
• Dunhouse Buff Pitched face stone- this is a natural quarried stone. Eurobrick’ s technical team visited the quarry to confirm specifications and around 356m ² was supplied.
• Dunhouse Buff Ashlar stone- natural stone used for false window infill panels, totalling 14m ².
• Procter Cast Stone Ashlar( Bathstone colour)- a manufactured stone used for perimeter feature bands, totalling approximately 50m ².
