Originally based in shop premises on a main street location in the centre of Arklow, this long established family hardware and builder's supplies merchant was looking to expand whilst remaining in the Arklow area. An opportunity to build a new Retail Outlet on a Greenfield site on the edge of Arklow facilitated the development of a state of the art premises embracing the business's expansion plans. A self-build project, the family selected their own engineer who worked alongside VITRAL and their installers to plan and deliver a modern and spacious retail environment fit for the 21st century. The superb stainless steel finish and quality of the VITRAL inspiration roof glazing system compliments the building and provides low-maintenance, energysaving natural light and ventilation.

“The system allows an amazing amount of natural light into the building, reducing the number of lights required. The stainless steel looks stunning and requires minimal maintenance. The integrated natural ventilation keeps the building comfortable for both employees and customers.”
