BNZ Harbour Quay Upcycling Facades
BNZ Harbour Quay Re-purpose and Re-use Project.
BNZ Harbour Quay Re-purpose and Re-use Project.
BNZ Wellington head office was a total clad solution for Thermosash, completed in 2009. The design life of a Thermosash unitised curtainwall façade system, if maintained according to our Operations and Maintenance Schedule, should well exceed 50+ years.
The 2016 Kaikoura earthquake damaged the BNZ Harbour Quay building making it unafe to reoccupy, however the facade almost undamaged and salvagable was re-installed on the Wellington Children’s Hospital plus other buildings. Architecture Now has featured an article on this re-use project, Breathing new life into recovered building materials.
