Hexagon Tower is a specialist science and technology facility located in Blackley, Manchester, England.

The site is a former Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI) research, development and production centre. Facilities at Blackley have played host to enterprises since 1785, before becoming an integral part of the British Dyestuffs Corporation after 1919 and then ICI in 1926.

Following a purchase in 2008, Hexagon Tower is now part of the Business Environments for Science and Technology (BEST) Network of UK science parks, managed by LaSalle Investment Management.[1]
