When sourcing the fire and smoke containment system, the project's architects, D P Architects in Singapore, had to be confident that the selected supplier had the technical expertise and the manufacturing capability to guarantee an effective solution, and the flexibility to work to a strict schedule.

Manufacturing and installing fire and smoke barriers to cover huge areas is a market sector in which Coopers has already gained an excellent track record.
