These solar-sharing fins bring a distinctive appearance to the Redcar Leisure Community Heart building. They were created by architectural-metalwork specialist Eltherington in expanded mesh and aluminium and are fitted vertically on the window sections. Used across the east and west elevations, the solar-shading fins provide energy-performance benefits.

Redcar Leisure Community Heart incorporates an all-weather sports and leisure centre, swimming pools, a business centre and multi-functional meeting and community spaces for Redcar residents and visitors to the town.
