Delta Facades Awarded Installation Contract for Nine Elms School

Delta Facades is proud to announce that we have been awarded the installation contract for the complete windows, doors and curtain wall package at the prestigious Nine Elms School project in London. This significant contract win underscores our growing reputation as a leading specialist in delivering high-quality facade solutions for education sector developments.

A Landmark Education Project

The Nine Elms School represents a vital addition to the rapidly evolving Nine Elms regeneration area in South London — one of the largest development zones in Europe. As the neighbourhood transforms with thousands of new homes and commercial spaces, the demand for world-class educational facilities has never been greater.

This new build school has been designed to provide a modern, inspiring learning environment for the local community. Central to the building's design is an emphasis on natural light, energy efficiency, and a welcoming aesthetic that encourages learning and creativity — all of which depend heavily on the performance and quality of the facade systems.

Our Scope of Works

Curtain Wall Systems

The school features extensive curtain wall installations that flood classrooms, corridors, and communal areas with natural daylight. Our team will install high-performance aluminium curtain wall systems designed to meet the stringent thermal and acoustic requirements of a modern educational environment.

Windows

Throughout the school, we will be fitting a comprehensive range of high-performance window systems. Each window has been specified to deliver exceptional thermal insulation, acoustic attenuation, and security — critical requirements for a school environment where pupil safety and comfort are paramount.

Doors

The door package includes entrance doors, internal glazed screens, and specialist access solutions. All door systems are designed to meet the demanding requirements of a busy school environment, including durability, accessibility compliance, safeguarding considerations, and fire safety regulations.

Why Education Sector Facades Matter

• Natural daylight: Well-lit classrooms improve student concentration and academic performance
• Thermal performance: Schools must maintain comfortable temperatures year-round while minimising energy consumption
• Acoustic control: Facade systems must attenuate external noise to create quiet, focused learning environments
• Safety and security: All glazing must meet safety standards appropriate for environments with children
• Durability: School buildings endure heavy daily use and must stand the test of time with minimal maintenance
• Sustainability: Modern schools are expected to achieve high environmental standards

Contributing to the Nine Elms Regeneration

The Nine Elms area has undergone a remarkable transformation in recent years, with major developments including the new US Embassy, Battersea Power Station, and thousands of new homes. The Nine Elms School is a crucial piece of community infrastructure that will serve the families moving into this vibrant new neighbourhood.

Delta Facades is honoured to play our part in this transformation. By delivering a facade that enhances the learning environment and contributes to the building's architectural vision, we are helping to create a facility that the Nine Elms community can be proud of for generations to come.
