The FAB Pave covers will be used on the Eleftheria Square project in Nicosia. Hadid’s company won a Europe-wide competition for the revamp of the main piazza in the centre that sits below the Venetian walls of the medieval city. The project aims to unify the ancient parts with the modern centre.

Managing Director Richard Hilton said: “Securing the contract for Eleftheria Square is testimony to the versatility and stylish design of the FAB Pave series. This is an area that will attract high footfall and it demanded a top quality specification to deliver the aesthetic the architects want to achieve.

“The flexibility of Fab Pave access covers meant we could work closely with the contractor to deliver their specific finish..”

Richard added: “We are currently working on some exciting projects in France and Germany that should come to fruition in the next year. We intend to capitalise on the positive export conditions through 2017 and beyond with a strategic focus to grow the global side of our business.”
