Soon to be the tallest building in the Jing'an commercial district of Shanghai, the 298 metre tall Shanghai Wheelock Square Tower on the famous Nanjing Road will have 56 floors above ground and 2 below. When construction is completed, the tower will provide 110,000 square metres of office, hotel and retail space.
Selected for their durable quality, Hattersley's bronze globe valves and PN25 butterfly valves have been installed in the HVAC system and their cast iron gate and swing check valves have been installed in the plumbing and drainage system.
They were chosen by the consulting engineer because they have a long life expectancy and are weight and space saving.
