Barr + Wray secure Far East contracts

Glasgow, UK-based swimming pool and spa provider Barr + Wray has announced that it has successfully secured two contracts in the Far East worth £2m (US$3.1m, EUR2.3m).

The group has been appointed to carry out the installation of spa facilities at Resort World and the W Hotel in Sentosa, Singapore, with the latter due for completion in April 2012.

Located on the southern tip of Singapore, the 240-bedroom W Hotel will offer vitality and herbal pools; saunas; steamrooms; and rain pods.

Facilities will also comprise a fitness centre; meeting rooms; and a residential development incorporating 228 homes and several penthouses.

Meanwhile, Barr + Wray has also been contracted to design the wet areas of the proposed wellness centre at Resort World, which will include hammams, saunas and steamrooms.

Vitality, onsen and plunge pools are also to be installed at Resort World by the group, with work scheduled for completion in December this year.

On the quayside at Resort World, there will be two double and three single treatment rooms, while the Sentosa ESPA spa will feature two treatment rooms on the level that Barr + Wray are to install its thermal cabins.

Barr + Wray managing director Alister MacDonald said: "Securing a succession of large contracts with some of the biggest names in the Asian hotel sector is a real boost for Barr + Wray.

"Both the W Hotel and Resort World are famed for their luxury and high standards, and it is really encouraging to see our reputation in this area grow following the work we have completed at these hotels."
