Leaders in light steel construction solutions, Metek PLC, are celebrating a prestigious award win following this year's Construction News Specialist Awards on 22 September. The Waterfront Plaza project, Phase 2, was named 'Project of the Year by a Specialist Contractor (subcontract from £1m to £5m)' in a ceremony held at The Brewery, London.
Located in Leith, Edinburgh, Waterfront Plaza is a high-profile residential, mixed-use development scheme on a key gateway site. Metek was selected to provide the light steel structure, balconies, and steel purlin roof for the buildings, which offer a mix of apartments and commercial studios.
Judges at the Construction News Specialist Awards cited Metek's efficiency, forward-thinking, and commitment to social value, sustainability, and innovation as being among the reasons for selecting the project as the winner.
Managing Director of Metek, Oliver Rogan said of the team's win: "To say I am proud of this business is an understatement. Every day our incredible team here at Metek outperforms the market, and it is their commitment and passion that have enabled us to stay at the top of our game and achieve this prestigious accolade."
Waterfront Plaza offers spacious, contemporary apartment homes in an area named by The Sunday Times as the 'Best Place to Live in Scotland' and offers waterside views across Victoria Quay. The development also provides excellent connectivity to the city centre, with cycle paths, public transport, and a planned tram extension giving access to Edinburgh and the nearby airport.
