RED System’s Strengthens Partnership With Willmott Dixon
We are thrilled to have been appointed as glazing & curtain walling contractor on the £60m Greenheys development at Manchester Science Park for Wilmott Dixon.
This hugely exciting, technically challenging project will enhance Manchester’s Oxford Road Corridor knowledge quarter as a global hub for life sciences & technology innovation. Scheduled for completion in Summer 2026, Greenheys will span 131,000 sq ft across six floors and will redefine the landscape of specialised laboratory spaces for diagnostics, genomics, biotech and precision medicine businesses.
We are delivering, full wrap around curtain walling featuring bespoke feature fins, curved on plan glazing & a unique anodised finish – 5000m2 of Reynaers CW50 system + 2100m2 of SFS.
Built to BREEAM Excellent, this development reflects both Willmott Dixon and Bruntwood SciTech’s commitment to sustainability, with Greenheys set to become the first lab space in the UK to be 100% electric and net zero carbon in construction and operation in its shared spaces.
Speaking about the project, RED Systems Managing Director, Michael Green said:
‘”We are delighted to be working on this hugely exciting project. Once again, this project allows us to showcase our unique, collaborative approach by combining our expertise in glazing, curtain walling and SFS via our sister company, RED Optimal. But more than anything, the Greenheys scheme provides yet another opportunity to develop our genuine partnership with our valued client Willmott Dixon.”
