www.everedge.co.uk New Norcros Rock-Tite capitalises on external porcelain and stone tile trends
Norcros Adhesives is launching a new 3-part system for fixing increasingly-popular 20mm external porcelain and stone tiles, called Norcros Rock-Tite Exterior Porcelain & Stone System. The Rock-Tite system comprises a Primer, a Mortar and a Brush-In Grout. It is designed for use by landscapers and garden designers, as well as tile fixers, and capitalises on a key trend in the tiling market currently. This is where internal tiled space is being extended to terrace or patio areas outside a building, which is part of a long-term lifestyle trend to enhance living areas by making better use of external space. The new generation of 20mm porcelain and stone tiles brings a number of advantages. The key benefit is that they allow a seamless transition from internal to external space, which is totally in accordance with the leading fashion trend of the moment. Porcelain tiles are also moisture, rot and frost resistant, resistant to UV rays, are easier to clean and offer better slip resistance than timber decking. Like all products from Norcros Adhesives, the new system benefits from a lifetime guarantee.

fences are aesthetically pleasing, versatile and available in a range of styles, wooden fence posts are particularly susceptible to rotting and warping. Steel is a far more durable fence post option, tested to withstand high-wind speeds and they will not degrade over time. Steel fence post solutions can also provide greater scope for colour scheme matching as they are available in a range of long-lasting colour finishes that can be coordinated with post caps, gravel boards and capping rails in the same finish to complete the fencing system. With a growing trend for liveable outdoor spaces, a new emphasis is being placed on interesting garden design in the development of newbuilds. As such it is important that architects understand that there are now new ways to easily incorporate colours and materials into exciting on-trend designs. Furthermore, it is possible to do so through the use of long- lasting and reliable fencing products, which will not degrade over time, ensuring that the desired aesthetic of the outside space is one that will last.
