Background
Dorothy Perkins is a national retail chain which is a part of the Arcadia group. This particular store was built as part of the new £500 million shopping centre, Cabot Circus, in Bristol.
The design of the new shopping centre was contemporary with its full glass facia. Due to the clear glass frontage we were asked to design an athletically pleasing unit that not only achieved the functional aspect, but was complimentary to the design of the shop front.
Diffusion supplied two, 3 metre long stainless steel cylindrical type Chameleon air curtains complete with our Energy Saving Controls.

Background
In 2008 a nationwide expansion of the brand took place, with stores opening in major cities all over the UK, the majority in University cities. Before the expansion, Superdry clothing was sold only in the London store, House of Fraser concessions and Cult stores. Today the brand is sold in over 20 countries across 4 continents. The 77Breed and SurfCo brands were added to Supergroup’s portfolio in 2006.
We have recently supplied equipment to new Superdry Stores in York, Colchester and Newbury. Our architectural Chameleon air curtain has been used over the main entrances as it fits in with the ultra modern decor off these cutting edge stores. The units are supplied with our state of the art controls package allowing for maximum energy savings.
Our CTE & SRE units have been installed in staff areas and stock rooms.
