» » ALUMINIUM SPECIALIST CDW
Systems recently supplied its market
leading products for a new waterfront
restaurant, the Octopus Bar and Restaurant
on the south side of Havelet Bay in St Peter
Port, Guernsey.
The restaurant boasts ‘one of the best
views in Guernsey’ towards Herm, Jethou
and Sark and a varied international menu
including locally freshly sourced seafood.
CDW Systems supplied curtain walling
and wide-span sliding doors for the project,
which were installed by Stainless Steel
Fabrications.
Sapa’s Elegance 52 is a high-performance
curtain walling system designed to meet
the demands of modern architecture. With
a 52mm width, Elegance 52 offers slim
sightlines while maintaining the necessary
strength requirements.
The project also incorporated Visoglide
Plus sliding doors from Smarts. The system
is ideal for maximising light and space in
commercial projects, and delivers superior
thermal performance.
Mike Davis, Managing Director of CDW
Systems, comments: “Octopus encapsulates
a sleek and modern aesthetic internally so
it was important the exterior matched.
“Our products combine contemporary
styling with unmatched performance that is
ideal for a marine environment to protect
against unpredictable weather and salt
corrosion.”

» » SWISSPACER IS THE ‘PRESENTING
Sponsor’ for around-the-world sailor, Matthias
Eigenmann, a participant of the ‘Clipper
Round the World’ sailing regatta. The race is
described as one of the toughest endurance
tests known, with all participants being
amateur sailors. Guided by a professional
skipper, the team will sail eight legs, and cover
40,000 nautical miles across six oceans.
Matthias will sail on the Greenings race
team for 11 months covering Uruguay, South
Africa, Australia, China, the USA and more.
The regatta departed from Albert Dock,
Liverpool on Sunday 20th August.
Matthias, who is 36 years old, has grown up
sailing around Lake Constance, Zurich, which
is next to SWISSPACER’s global headquarters.
He has a passion for environmental causes,
which is shared by SWISSPACER. Money
raised from sponsorship will be donated to
‘The Ocean Cleanup’ project, which is focused
on developing new technologies to catch
plastic and waste found in the ocean.
SWISSPACER Managing Director Andreas
Geith comments: “We’re delighted to be the
‘Presenting Sponsor’ for The Race of My Life
sailor Matthias Eigenmann. Environmental
issues will only continue to increase if we do
not proactively support initiatives, such as the
Ocean Clean-up.”

Glass & Glazing has it covered
» » A LOCAL CRICKET CLUB IN
Yorkshire has once again benefited from
Morley Glass & Glazing’s support, with the
business stepping in to help finance a new
crease cover for the team.

operates a 1st XI and A Team in the Central
Yorkshire Cricket League, as well as being
members of the Heavy Woollen District Junior
Cricket league where it runs U9, U11, U13 &

Now, thanks to Morley’s continued
sponsorship, the club’s home ground on
Wellhouse Lane in Mirfield has benefited from
a crease cover to help preserve the pitch during
inclement weather.
Ian Short, Morley’s managing director, said:
“Morley has long been a supporter of grass
roots sports club, and we’re fortunate to have
some really great local clubs to be able to give
back to.Given that the weather in Yorkshire
can be anything but predictable, no doubt the
new cover will see its fair share of action this
season.”

a committed supporter of local sport clubs
and societies, with sponsorships for several
community rugby, cricket and even dancing
