Set in the heart of Airport City Manchester’s hotel district, TRIBE is the third new hotel to be built at the modern development. With the emphasis placed on guest comfort, the project demanded more from its fire-rated glazing systems, with Pyroguard’s toughened solution chosen to help meet the challenge. Andy Vooght, Sales Director at OWS Fire Rated Ltd commented, "Pyroguard was one of the only suppliers who were able to confidently meet this design brief without the need to compromise on safety.
