Brett martin does the double, completing two major premier league stadium projects

Mallusk manufacturer Brett Martin has completed new projects with two of the English Premier League’s most prestigious football clubs.

The world-leading plastics manufacturer provided high-performance, transparent polycarbonate roofing for refurbishments at Arsenal’s stadium as well as for the impressive new Everton ground at Bramley Moore Dock.

The Newtownabbey company manufactured and installed replacement roofing for the Emirates Stadium in Holloway, London, which has been the home of Arsenal Football Club since 2006.

The Emirates, a £390 million, 60,000-seat ground for which Brett Martin provided the roofing when it was originally built, was recently renovated. As part of the refurbishment, the crucial light-emitting roofing was replaced, and Brett Martin was again chosen as the preferred supplier. A total of 7,827 square meters of Brett Martin’s Marlon CS and Marlon FSX polycarbonate sheets were installed to refurbish the entire roof of the stadium.

The Everton project saw Brett Martin provide the high-performance, transparent polycarbonate for the new £555 million stadium that is seen as key to the regeneration of that part of Merseyside.

Covering over 6000 sq m of the stadium roof, the specialist polycarbonate material transmits sunlight through to the pitch, helping to ensure a high-quality surface for many of the world’s top footballers to play on.

With the roof now complete, works on Everton’s stadium as a whole are due to be finished soon. The club are due to move to the new stadium from the start of next season.
