Latham’s range of FR products is second to none


J


ames Latham offers one of the biggest ranges of high performance, fire retardant panel and timber products on the market, all directly available from stock through its nationwide network of depots.


Fire damage in buildings can be devastating and as a result, flame retar-


dant products are being specified in construction to help reduce this impact. Latham’s extensive collection of fire retardant products includes; CE marked Birch Plywood, Timber Cladding, Chipboard, MDF, MF/MDF, OSB, and Decorative Products for interiors including Valchromat, MFC, HI-MACS solid surface, Laminate and Fire door blanks. All products are certified and independently tested to Euroclass B or


Euroclass C and copies of these reports and the Field of Application are available to download from the website. These fire tests are carried out for the manufacturer by an approved third


party and measure readings such as; rate of fire propagation, lateral fire spread, total heat release and smoke production. Andrew Wright, Director of Lathams Limited said, “The number of projects where Fire Retardant products are being


specified is increasing. When the correct fire retardant product is specified and installed in accordance with the Field of Application, they can provide the first line of defence in a fire, helping to protect lives in both commercial and residential properties.” Mr Wright added, “We are continually reviewing our range to ensure we have the most


up-to-date offering available for all our customers and our team of knowl- edgeable and experienced staff can provide information and samples for all these products.”

  Sika Liquid Plastics cures challenges 


Sika Liquid Plastics has developed a rapid range of liquid applied membranes for social housing refurbishment schemes with cure times of as little as 20 minutes, even at very low temperatures. The Sikalastic Rapid range utilises PMMA (Polymethyl methacrylate) technology, offering one of the fastest curing times of any liquid applied membrane in the market. PMMA has proved to be advantageous for situations where the contractor’s access to the area to be treated may be restricted, and a fast application is desirable. The Sikalastic Rapid Range can also be utilised as a liquid applied waterproofing membrane on flat roofs with limited access and gutters, where speed of application is a major advantage, the solvent free cold applied liquid resin, which consists of two components, cures following an extremely rapid in-situ polymerisation, which is activated by the addition of a peroxide catalyst. This curing proceeds rapidly even at temperatures around 0°C.
