ONE Bishopsgate Plaza is a mixed-use development located in the City of London. The 43-story, 135 m (444 ft) high tower features a sophisticated form which steps as it rises. The scheme accommodates high-end retail components, restaurants and cafés on the ground floors, a luxury 5-star hotel and, on the upper levels of the main tower building, private residential apartments. Furthermore, the scheme includes a new public space filled with shops and cafes at its edges.

Scheldebouw, the Dutch brand of Permasteelisa Group, designed, engineered, manufactured and installed the façade of the main tower and the pavilion, a full transparent box featured by structural glass fins for both the façade and the roof. In order to keep the atmosphere inside the pavilion comfortable, the glass features a high-performance coating. The roof glazing and the West and South façade glass have a custom frit pattern to lower the heat-gain even further. For the North and South elevation, a special LED lighting system - incorporated into the stainless steel connection profiles between the glass frames and the façade and roof glazing units - was developed.
Design & engineering, manufacturing and installation of 20,000 sqm (215,300 sq ft) of unitized curtain wall and 11,000 sqm (118,400 sq ft) of brise soleil.
