reduction in corridors and canteen areas
As part of a development project at Alsop High School in Liverpool, the new ground floor corridors and canteen area have been fitted with Forbo’s Sarlon Canyon vinyl, delivering 15dB impact sound reduction, excellent indentation resistance and an R10 slip resistance rating. Architects at 20/20 Liverpool specified the versatile and subtle tonal design – particularly popular in the education sector - from Forbo’s new BREEAM A/A+ rated Sarlon acoustic flooring collection. Marmoleum was specified for upper levels of the building, helping to meet demanding sustainability targets, whilst Forbo’s Safestep R12 was installed in the kitchen to protect staff from slip hazards associated with spillages.

Replacement glazing for campus buildings A variety of glazing systems from Kawneer have met the design and performance criteria for the remodelling of two buildings at the University of Strathclyde. The company’s AA720 HI renovation TIP windows, whose narrow sightlines mimic those of the original steel windows, AA605 medium-duty swing doors and AA100 zone- drained curtain walling with 50mm sightlines and glazed in opening vents have been combined to provide the desired aesthetic of the six-storey Lord Hope building in Glasgow City Centre. Its neighbouring building, Curran, which is also concrete-framed, features AA100 curtain walling and latest AA720 tilturn windows on the third and sixth floors.

Comprehensive toileting and hygiene solution The new Marriotts & Lonsdale combined school complex in Hertfordshire incorporates an all-age school with integral residential department for 84 disabled pupils. To ensure Lonsdale pupils’ hygiene needs were achieved, Clos-o-Mat delivered a comprehensive toileting/hygiene solution. En-suite bathrooms in the flats, accessible toilets and a hygiene room have been kitted out with 15 of its Palma Vita automatic ‘wash and dry’ toilets, 32 washbasins and four shower seats. The Clos-o-Mat Palma Vita wash and dry toilet looks like, and can be used as, a conventional WC, but additionally features in-built douching and drying, which assists independence, hygiene, and dignity.

Radiators to partner renewable technologies Specifically designed to partner renewable heating technologies in educational and commercial buildings, Zehnder Nova Neo radiators have been installed along the corridors and in the stairwell of the new teaching block at St Peter’s Primary School in Farnham. With the lower flow and return temperatures derived from the School’s newly installed gas absorption heat pump, a suitable emitter was needed to meet the heat output requirements of certain problematic areas. Providing efficient heating at system temperatures of between 25°C – 40°C, with the benefit of exceptional controllability and additional heat boosts when needed, the Nova Neo was ideally suited for this part of the building.
