No. 1 Spinningfields

Project Location: Quay Street, Manchester M3

Bespoke steel planters were commissioned for No. 1 Spinningfields – Manchester’s tallest commercial office building, at the heart of the world-class, 26-acre Spinningfields development masterplan.

The planters were manufactured from 2.0mm thick Zintec Steel, with a Polyester Powder Coated [PPC] finish to RAL 9007 [Grey aluminium]. The scheme comprised a selection of planters, from L 2000 x W 2000 x H 1000mm tree planters, to shrub planters up to L 4400 x W 1200 x H 1000mm.  

IOTA’s planters were commissioned for No. 1 Spinningfields by principal contractors, BAM Construction.

No.1 Spinningfields was completed in Autumn 2017, and at 19 storeys it is Manchester's tallest commercial office building. Designed by architects SimpsonHaugh, No.1 Spinningfields is the final building to be completed within the 26-acre Spinningfields masterplan, which has created a world-class office destination for financial and professional services companies. No 1 Spinningfields will be home to tenants such as PwC, Marks & Spencer, D&D London, Browne Jacobson, Squire Patton Boggs, WeWork, Oliver James, Weightmans and NorthEdge.
