Cube Glass wins Rangers contract

Scottish glass and aluminium specialist Cube Glass has won the contract for the glass feature attractions in the new Blue Sky Lounge at Ibrox Stadium in Glasgow.

The new multi-purpose lounge at the home of Rangers Football Club will boast panoramic views of the pitch and will serve more than 330 guests each match day.

Cube Glass, working in partnership with construction and fit-out expert Morris & Spottiswood, is installing a full-length screen at the rear of the Sandy Jardine Stand with access doors to the new lounge for patrons.

In a project worth £120,000, the manufacturer will use Metal Technology System 10-35 Hi to create a light, airy environment in which guests can enjoy pre-and post-match hospitality. It is scheduled for completion by October.

Gary Thorn, Cube Glass MD, said: “Our involvement in the Blue Sky Lounge follows the completion of the Cube Glass sponsors’ lounge just before the start of last season, a small, bespoke venue above the main stand which hosts 24 club sponsors.

“And, in 2019, we were called on to install three fire-rated screens and new double doors at the £14 million The Rangers Training Centre at Auchenhowie in the North of Glasgow. We are very pleased to have been able to further develop this close relationship with the club.”

Cube Glass’s Blue Sky deal follows the successful completion of a £600,000 investment in a new factory and the imminent opening of a new showroom which will highlight the company’s expanded range.

The firm employs 14 full time staff and two apprentices and is actively recruiting to sustain growth.
