Project of Enviroplaz International LTD - Flagship Marine Floating Sales Office

"A showroom dedicated to the sale of Luxury power and sailing boats."

As this project is located full time on a floating building within the Westhaven Marina, using Aluplast windows and doors was an ideal solution for this project and ensured the longevity as the project required the highest level of corrosion protection and as a standard Aluplast used corrosion proof materials. 

With toughened glass or laminated double glazed units, not only is there a vast security improvement compared to standard single glazing. These DGU's help protect against the elements from a hot summer day to a cold winter night.

Originally a 150 Tonne Barge was constructed by Polymer Engineering LTD, based in Auckland. The Barge was constructed using a highly specialized "Pluztuff" polymer Sheet, then the steel structure was elevated and encapsulated by the same material. The cladding on the outer walls is a composite timber looking plank.

The main challenge during the installation of this project, was the use of a standard building and leveling tool, since the installation of this project was completed on a floating building it was impossible to use this tool. Thus during the installation of the windows and doors used the geometry of the building.

All Windows and doors were constructed using IDEAL 2000 Aluplast Profiles:

• 60 mm construction depth
• Uw = 1.4 W/m²K with standard double-glazing with Ug = 1.1 and Psi = 0.040 W/mK 
• Uw=1.0 W/m²K best possible option with triple glazing with Ug = 0.6 and Psi=0.030 W/mK 
• Up to 43dB sound protection (sound protection class 4)

Customized specifically for this project, we provided these items in Anthracite Grey, with all hardware items to match for an aesthetically pleasing and modern finish.
