NEWS | Gold Series Volume 2: Available Now

IG Masonry Support, dedicated to delivering intelligent engineering with offsite craftsmanship, has launched it’s Gold Series Volume 2’, highlighting its most prestigious and award-winning projects.

The ‘Gold Series’ celebrates IG’s ability to push the boundaries of design, delivering innovative masonry support including solutions that create the illusion of floating soffits of brickwork hidden under steel. Following the success of Volume 1 launched in December 2018, Volume 2 has been published to showcase up-to-date projects from 2019 to 2023.

The range of bespoke masonry support solutions offered by IG Masonry Support delivers design versatility, helping architects and brickwork contractors to achieve intricate brick detailing and complex bond patterns using offsite technology.

IG’s product range is manufactured within a strict quality-controlled environment, using a consignment of the brick being used onsite to guarantee the product blends seamlessly with the surrounding brickwork. It is then delivered to site ready for installation helping to speed up the pace of construction and reducing the need for onsite labour.

The ‘Gold Series’ explores a range of projects demonstrating IG’s ability to develop offsite solutions for a wide variety of applications including schools, large residential and commercial developments, and private luxury residences.

Scott Denham, Sales Director at IG Masonry Support, commented: “We are delighted to launch Volume 2 of our ‘Gold Series’, showcasing the incredible projects and finite architectural details which have been made possible with IG’s technical expertise.

“IG Masonry Support strives to deliver high-quality products using offsite craftsmanship. Our team works very closely with architects and contractors to deliver innovative masonry support solutions for the projects featured in the ‘Gold Series’ and acknowledges the people involved in all these projects.”
