24 BUILDING FABRIC Magply doubles up on shoreline property
A striking new three bedroom beachfront home on the East Sussex coast has been designed to not only respect its location within an area of Special Scientific Interest, but also withstand the challenging weather conditions as well as shifting sands, with Magply boards specified as part of both the roof and wall construction. The
building is making use of non-traditional construction methods, which features twin 12mm layers of the rugged and versatile Magply boards as a carrier for a render like finish, applied by the Micro Cement Company across the entire envelope. Magply offers a fire-safe and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional plywood or OSB products.

A strikingly modern residential property in one of Kent’s most famous coastal towns is making articulate use of MarmoxMultiboards as part of its cladding solution. Gerald Glover commented “Given the elevated coastal position the boards had to be fully waterproof,
while we also needed them to comply with fire regulations for exterior cladding use, but the lightness of Multiboard – enabling you to install large sections without difficulty – as well as the ease of cutting and fixing, were all additional attractions. We are now planning to use up the boards we have left over for fitting out the four en-suites, wherever there are areas of tiling or wet room situations. Multiboard is a very versatile product.”

At Goldfinch Court, client Hills Partnership working with PCKO Architects undertook this project to replace and upgrade an existing residential facade comprising combustible ACM panels and rigid foam insulation. In addition to
mineral fibre insulation and non-combustible cladding panels, the architects specified the Fireshield vapour permeable membrane from the A. Proctor Group Ltd. Correctly installed in accordance with the A. Proctor Groups guidance by contractors Facade Cladding Solutions, Fireshield has a unique intumescent composition that actively reacts to prevent fire taking hold. This unique coating extinguishes fire rather than just resisting it, and significantly reduces the formation of droplets and smoke.

The BMI Redland Rosemary Clay Classic tile proved ideal when sensitivities surrounding conservation and heritage environments were paramount. When architect Gordon Delgano wanted to refurbish his mid-terrace house in an architecturally distinguished area of Glasgow, it was to the Rosemary Clay
Classic tile he turned. As Gordon says: “The tiles were originally Rosemary directly fixed to timber sarking and, after more than 80 years, some tiles were slipping due to nail fatigue, so it was time to consider replacing,” he says. “And I really wanted to replace it like for like.”

effluents, so the environment is of paramount importance. The company is very fortunate in being located in a rural location at Woore, South Cheshire on a 6-acre site with more than half the site being green natural space, having a small lake, woodland which being expanded by annual planting of British tree species, a further 250 trees were planted in early 2020. To endorse the company’s environmental ambitions the directors felt that it was appropriate to gain ISO14001. The initial plan of getting full ISO14001
T
for early 2020 was put into total disarray by the Coronavirus epidemic, so much of the work had already been done during 2019 it was disappointing that completion would be delayed. After some discussion with LRQA it was
realised that not all was lost and that much of the final qualification could be done remotely. During early 2020 much of the detailed work was completed, only necessitating one surveillance visit to complete the process allowing T-T to gain the valued accreditation in the summer of 2020. The accreditation will allow the company

to continue with its environmental policy while helping meet environmental regulations, improve efficiency and environmental performance. Big thanks to LRQA for their positive
attitude in helping T-T gaining this important accreditation.
