Sapphire’s Glide-On™ balconies have transformed the Abbey Place development in South London, offering residents valuable outdoor space while enhancing the building’s aesthetic.

Sapphire Balconies has successfully met the challenge of balancing striking architectural design with practical construction solutions for 101 Cleveland Street, a prestigious residential development located in the heart of London’s Fitzrovia.

Early engagement between Peter Brett Associates, PRP Architects, and Berkeley Homes ensured that Sapphire could supply balconies that reflected the architectural vision and historical significance of the Huntley Wharf site.

Chelsea Homes , a stunning St George, Berkley Homes project in Central London offers European-style urban lifestyle with tree-lined avenues and meandering waterways.

Balcony manufacturer Sapphire Balconies has unveiled their most sustainable balcony product yet, quickly gaining a reputation as a ‘kinder’ next generation of Balconies.

Today, Sapphire is proud to reveal its next step in elegant yet buildable balcony design – the Crescent™ Corner Cassette. Developed by Sapphire’s dedicated R&D team, this exciting new curved balcony design creates a ‘softer’, elegant aesthetic to any building.

Sapphire’s offsite-manufactured Glide-On™ Cassette® balconies, together with the company’s logistical expertise, have solved several intriguing challenges posed by Block C1 at London Dock in Wapping, a stunning development of high-quality homes situated on the historic Thames waterfront.

Dura Composites has launched Dura Deck® Inspire, the first ever 1.8m long A1 fire-rated porcelain deck plank balcony solution in the UK, especially suited to applications where the building height exceeds 11m, following the change of legislation for medium and high rise buildings.

Robust and regulated fire safety is essential in the built environment. In December 2022, the industry’s Approved Document B was updated to support specific requirements and regulations to the Building Regulations 2010.
