Royal Military Academy given luxury finish
Making a Passivhaus a home
The former Royal Military Academy overlooking Woolwich Common finds a new place in history with its stunning restoration, featuring Kingspan OPTIM-R Flooring System. The Grade II* listed building is being lovingly renovated by Durkan to create prestigious, high specification houses and apartments. Durkan commented: “We chose the Kingspan OPTIM-R Flooring System to allow us to make the most of the available space. Installing the Kingspan OPTIM-R
Flooring System in a 30mm thickness allowed us to maintain existing threshold levels whilst also achieving excellent thermal performance.”

Klober launches over-rafter insulation boards Klober Permo®
Shaws Classic Waterside therm is a tongue and
groove insulation board with integrated reflective underlay and self- adhesive edge tapes for sealing laps. Suitable for either new build or refurb work, it has LABC approval and is suitable for all pitches. Unlike square- edged boards Permo therm does not provide an air leakage path. Installed over rafters it not only provides added height within the roof space but removes underlay installation. Boards can be laid either from left to right or
right to left with no ventilation of the batten/counter-batten cavity needed other than where impervious or tight-fitting roof coverings are used.
