Client: Jo Malone London
Location: 52 Gloucester Place, London, W1U 8HQ
Project Type: Secondary Glazing for Heat Loss and Noise Reduction

Overview
Jo Malone London, a luxury fragrance and lifestyle brand, required a solution to improve thermal efficiency and reduce street noise in their historic Gloucester Place building. Traditional single-glazed windows were causing significant heat loss and letting in unwanted external noise. Our secondary glazing installation addressed these issues while preserving the building’s aesthetic.

Project Objectives
* Reduce heat loss and improve energy efficiency with secondary glazing.
* Minimize external noise for a quieter, more comfortable interior.
* Maintain the building’s historic appearance with unobtrusive glazing solutions.


Our Secondary Glazing Solution
We installed custom secondary glazing throughout the property, providing:
* Slimline frames for a discreet look.
* Double-glazed panels to enhance thermal insulation and reduce energy costs.
* Acoustic performance to block external noise from busy London streets.
* Tailored installation for airtight seals and optimal performance on every window.


Implementation
Our team carefully prepared window frames, installed bespoke secondary glazing units, and ensured all seals were airtight. The installation was completed with minimal disruption, ensuring both staff and clients experienced uninterrupted comfort.

Results
* Energy efficiency: Reduced heat loss, leading to lower heating bills.
* Noise reduction: Significantly quieter indoor environment.
* Aesthetic preservation: Historic façade maintained without compromise.
* Enhanced comfort: A warmer, more peaceful interior for staff and clients.


Client Feedback
Jo Malone London praised the installation for its effective noise reduction, thermal performance, and discreet, elegant design, which complemented the building’s historic character.

Conclusion
This project demonstrates the benefits of secondary glazing in historic buildings, providing heat loss reduction, noise insulation, and improved energy efficiency while preserving aesthetic appeal.
