We’re proud to mark the official opening of our new northern showroom, offices and training facility as we welcomed contractors, installers, architects and developers to celebrate at our launch event in Cheadle yesterday.
Guests joined us for toasts and tours of our new flagship showroom, which marks the continued growth of Aliva UK as an award-winning, market-leader of A-rated Kiwa and BBA certified facade systems.
Gruppo IVAS CEO
We pride ourselves on our facades designed with Italian flair, one of the many market differentiators that we stand proud of as part of Gruppo IVAS, and its 70 year legacy of leading innovation in the facade sector. We were equally proud to be joined by the CEO of Gruppo IVAS, part of the business’ founding family, Jacopo Colonna at our opening.
The morning featured presentations on our signature External Wall Insulation / ETICS systems including AlivaBrick, AlivaClassic, AlivaFlex, AlivaCeramic and AlivaDesign focussing on the visual impact our versatile ranges can make to create beautiful buildings and realise architectural design intent without compromise – alongside the thermal efficiencies EWI yields.
We also gave a demonstration of our new high impact strength system, AlivaClassic Impatto, which has a high impact carbon fibre cementitious basecoat, perfect for buildings where high impact resistances are required and for high levels of pedestrian movement.
After celebratory toasts were given by Aliva UK’s MD James Ormerod, our afternoon session focussed on our award-winning rainscreen cladding systems, showcasing the art-of-the visual possible and the customisation that can be achieved in our flagship systems that span a multi material product suite including aluminium, expanded mesh, terracotta, ceramic, stone and glass.
James Ormerod, Aliva UK’s MD said: “This was a major day in Aliva UK’s 26 year history to date, our new northern showroom puts on display our signature systems as a facade system market leader and continuous innovator, proudly part of Gruppo IVAS’ 70 plus year history. With thanks to all the contractors, installers, architects and developers that we have worked with to get us to this exciting chapter in our UK history, and we look forward to welcoming new customers and contacts to visit our northern showroom across 2026.”
Our new northern showroom and offices are located at the Stanley Green Trading Estate, Unit 8A, Duke Avenue, Cheadle Hulme, Stockport, SK8 6RX. To book a showroom tour please email us at: enquiries@gruppoivas.co.uk
