A high- five in Malaysia for Cotswold
Specialist international friction-stay manufacturer and hardware supplier Cotswold Architectural Products is celebrating its products being specified in five major residential and commercial projects, in quick succession, in Malaysia.
The Cheltenham based manufacturer’s hardware was specified for the construction of a range of high profile projects that included St Regis Hotel in the capital Kuala Lumpur; the building of a government department for the Ministry of Transport and a number of high-end residential properties, one of which was 58 storey’s high.
The projects are scheduled to be completed in 2014 and 2015.
Cotswold’s HDA 18”, Telescopic Restrictor 8” and the FA 103 Restrictor Arms will be incorporated within the buildings; with 5894 stays and arms expected to be used altogether.
