Project Overview

Henley Stone Specialists were proud to collaborate with Morgan Sindall on the installation of Glass Reinforced Concrete (GRC) for Liverpool John Moores University’s landmark development at Copperas Hill. This transformative £64.5 million scheme has regenerated a key gateway site adjacent to Liverpool Lime Street Station, reinforcing the university’s commitment to modern, sustainable infrastructure.

Scope of Work Henley Stone Specialists were entrusted with the installation of precision-engineered GRC elements to ensure both aesthetic appeal and long-term durability. Our team worked in close coordination with Morgan Sindall and the project stakeholders to deliver high-quality, seamlessly integrated façade components that align with the university’s architectural vision.

Henley Stone Specialists overcame this by leveraging our expert installation teams and using advanced surveying techniques to guarantee a flawless fit. Our ability to adapt to complex design requirements and site constraints played a pivotal role in the project’s success.

Results & Impact The completed scheme not only enhances the student experience but also contributes to the wider regeneration of Liverpool’s city centre. The innovative use of GRC has provided a sleek, modern aesthetic while ensuring resilience against environmental factors. By working closely with Morgan Sindall, Henley Stone Specialists have helped to deliver a landmark project that will serve students and the community for years to come.
