Reynaers achieves maximum comfort and
safety for new London homes
N
estled in the exciting Kings
Cross district of London, Onyx
Apartments is a new development
that offers residents the best of everything:
comfort, ideal location, unmatched views of
the city and access to an array of restaurants,
bars, shops, parks and galleries. Working
closely with developer Taylor Wimpey,
contractor United Living and Cross Border
partner Skonto Plan, Reynaers has ensured
residents receive the highest level of thermal
insulation and safety, while also being
able to take advantage of the unique
London panorama.
Onyx Apartments is an 11-storey building
located on the banks of Regent’s Canal,
which offers 117 bespoke homes with
one, two and three bedroom options. The
development was designed as a modern,
elegant and professional living environment
which is reflected in the look and feel of the
entire building. Residents are offered a rangeof facilities, including a 24-hour concierge
service, access to a residents’ roof terrace, two
enticing entrance lobbies and cycle storage.
Comfort and safety were two top priorities
in bringing this project to life and Reynaers
was brought on board to achieve those aims.
The CS 86 ‘High Insulated’ (HI) aluminium
window was specified, as it offers an
overall insulation value (Uf) of 1.0 W/m²K,
making it one of the most energy-efficient
windows on the market. RB Glass was also
used, an add-on glass balustrade which offers
an additional layer of security without
compromising the transparency and design
of the windows. To further enhance the
insulation level of the apartments, Reynaers’
CP 155 ‘Lift and Slide’ (LS) aluminium door
was specified as part of the project, a product
which creates maximum glazed areas while
also maintaining comfort.
Commenting on the development, Neil
Garner, International Project Consultant atReynaers Aluminium UK said: “We are proud
to be a part of the redevelopment of Kings
Cross district. Onyx Apartments is a great
example of a project that combines elements
of luxury and practicality, bringing a fresh
perspective to the area. At Reynaers, our
mission is to enhance the living and working
environment and I believe we achieved that
as part of this project through the comfort
and security that our doors and windows
offer the new residents.”
Kings Cross has been undergoing major
transformation work, with new residential

variety of green spaces, restored heritage
buildings, a bustling food and drink scene
