The Castings, Manchester

Elements Europe has won a contract to manufacture bathroom pods for a brand new development in Manchester city centre – The Castings – for client Midgard Ltd and Packaged Living.


Elements Europe will manufacture a total of 545 floorless bathroom pods for the scheme, including shower and bath pods. Based in the Piccadilly East area of Manchester, this 25-storey apartment building will be home to 352 Build-to-Rent (BTR) one, two and three bedroom apartments, resident amenities and a new public square.


Packaged Living is a bespoke, Build-to-Rent developer and operator at the forefront of the private rented sector (PRS). Purchased in partnership with a Fiera Real Estate Fund, the scheme forms part of the Portugal Street Masterplan and will be one of the standout residential offerings in Manchester city centre.


“We would like to thank our client Midgard Ltd for the opportunity to work together and we look forward to delivering more projects for them in the future. This scheme will play a major role in the Manchester Piccadilly Strategic Regeneration Framework and will bring much needed rental housing to the city” commented Kevin Arthur, Head of Sales at Elements Europe.
