Legendre UK

Progress update on Peterborough Road! Legendre UK is making steady progress ✅ on the 46,000 sq ft office development at Parsons Green, built on behalf of W.RE. The team has recently installed temporary façade retention steelwork, enabling us to proceed safely with demolition. So far, approximately 50% of the existing structure has been removed, marking a key stage in the project. Additionally, sheet piling is now underway, allowing the relocation of the electrical substation—an essential step towards full demolition. Designed by TateHindle architects, this office building will feature six floors of flexible workspace, including accessible roof terraces, with a strong focus on sustainability ♻️ and an energy-efficient design ⚡ featuring air source heat pumps and PV panels. More than a construction project, this development aligns with our co-investment strategy, strengthening the partnership between the London office and W.RE to deliver top-tier office solutions 💼 to Southwest London. Completion is scheduled for late 2026 ⏳ – stay tuned for more updates on this exciting project! #Construction #Sustainability ♻️ #ParsonsGreen #London

And now six!   Since 2017, the innovation of the hybrid beam, designed and developed by Ingénova (the R&D subsidiary of the Legendre Group), has been implemented in six flagship projects. 🎯   This patented technology combines the strength of reinforced concrete with the efficiency of a structural outer metal shell, offering a range of benefits: 💪 Strength: It supports large spans for typical floor loads with optimised dimensions. ⚡ Lightweight: Quick to install without the need for welding, bolting, or carpentry, it is compatible with standard lifting equipment. 🔄 Versatility: It adapts to most constructions, whether as intermediate flooring or roofing, including in seismic areas. It can be combined with composite flooring, precast slabs, or cast in situ. 📏 Customisable: Flexible in application, it can be sized for spans ranging from 15 to 25 metres during the design phase. 🔥 Reliability: Fire-resistant without additional protection, it can also be fitted with supplementary protection options as required.   🔍 A visual recap of these six projects: •          ZAC LALLIER - L'Haÿ-les-Roses (FR): 2024 •          ALGO HOUSE - Paris (13th): 2022 •          NUDGE - Paris (13th): 2020 •          CABP - Chessy (FR): 2019 •          VIZION - Noisy-le-Grand (FR): 2019 •          CAMPUS AVRIL - Bruz (FR): 2017 The hybrid beam is one of the innovations developed by Ingenova to promote more sustainable construction!   #Innovation #HybridBeam

On World Mental Health Day, Legendre UK is once again embracing the opportunity to highlight the importance of mental health in the workplace. This year’s theme, Workplace Mental Health, resonates strongly with our commitment to fostering a supportive and open environment across all our sites 🏗️. Mental health should not be taken lightly, especially in the construction industry 👷♀️👷♂️, where balancing demanding work schedules and well-being can be a real challenge.   Over the years, the teams have worked hard to promote mental health and well-being and support each and every employee, through various initiatives implemented. From providing access to professional support 💡, to offering resources for anyone in need, Legendre is committed to fostering a workplace where everyone feels safe to speak up and seek help. Creating a supportive and open environment is something we all play a part in. 🤝   On 10th October, memo cards 📋 with useful contacts will be distributed on-site, along with toolbox talks to encourage open discussions 🗨️ about mental health. A special thank you to Paula Calisan and Cécilia Lemaire for their incredible work in organising these toolbox talks and leading various mental health initiatives over the years. 🙌   To further raise awareness, on 12th October, 10 of our employees will take on the Yorkshire 3 Peaks Challenge. 🥾 Covering 39km and 1,585m of ascent, this challenge is not only a physical feat but also a way to support Mind, a charity dedicated to mental health 🧠.   If you'd like to support this great cause, please consider donating here 👉 https://lnkd.in/e4gazbNg.   #WorldMentalHealthDay #WorkplaceWellbeing #Yorkshire3Peaks #Charity #MentalHealthAwareness
