Adjustable-height dock bumpers from Stertil ensure versatility and quadruple working life
Designed to provide unrivalled protection for vehicles, loading bays and buildings, the proven range of PE Dock Bumpers from Stertil Dock Products has been boosted with the introduction of adjustable-height versions. Stertil PE dock bumpers are renowned for their innovative design which allows left and right bumpers to be simply interchanged and rotated to enable users to achieve four times the working life of traditional dock bumpers. Now, the latest generation of adjustable-height bumpers offers a host of features and benefits. For example, the latest adjustable-height PE dock bumpers are adaptable for all vehicles and trailer types and are especially suitable for cold stores and sea containers. The bumpers are self-releasing while a truck is docked and are of particular benefit when used in conjunction with ‘step frame levellers’ by allowing vehicle doors to be opened after docking, thereby maintaining the chill environment and reducing possible contamination. Ideal for simplifying all types of loading and unloading duties, the new adjustable-height bumpers provide an impressive reach of 248mm above the mounting position and are suitable for use in low height docks.

Senior Architectural Systems have helped create a warm and welcoming accommodation scheme for the students of Arts University Bournemouth. Senior’s patented low U-value PURe® windows and PURe®
aluminium SLIDE aluminium doors have been installed alongside the
thermally-efficient SF52 aluminium curtain wall system, with the scheme achieving a ‘Very Good’ BREEAM rating. The project also features Senior’s thermally-broken SPW500 aluminium commercial doors and SPW600 aluminium windows.

JACKON is ‘future homes’ ready! T
he Government’s new Future Homes Standard is set to be a key part of the construction industry’s framework
going forward, underpinning the planned green recovery of the housebuilding market in particular. With new cuts in emissions of up to 80% required and a ‘fabric first’ approach, the Standard will be the guiding principle of new housebuilding in the future. It will become a requirement for housebuilders to build well-insulated homes, in which on-site renewable energy sources cannot be used to offset inadequate insulation
at the construction phase. The Government is proposing target u-values of 0.15 for external walls and 0.11 for floors from 2025. JACKON is ready for these changes and is
in fact arguing for them to be even more rigorous. The new targets are not a problem, since JACKON’s THERMOMUR 350 Super range - currently the company’s best-selling range in the UK - already achieves 0.15 for walls with no added materials, and the JACKODUR ATLAS system can be designed to achieve 0.11. JACKON brings its 60 years’ expertise in
EPS (moulded expanded polystyrene) and XPS (extruded polystyrene) manufacturing to this market. It has two complementary systems, JACKODUR ATLAS which uses XPS (extruded polystyrene) to create an insulated floor slab and THERMOMUR ICF which uses EPS (moulded expanded polystyrene) to create the formwork. ICF is a modern construction method,
which is widely used in Europe and North America, but is still relatively new in the UK. It integrates insulation materials into the concrete formwork, totally revolutionising
the way a house is constructed. As well as being easier and quicker to
build, an ICF house provides massive advantages during the life of a building. These include: dramatically improved insulation and air tightness leading to reduced expenditure on heating or cooling; excellent acoustic performance; fire resistance; enhanced resilience to flood, extreme weather and seismic activity; rot and vermin resistance; versatility with regard to remodelling; minimal maintenance requirement; mortgage, insurance and planning acceptance.
