One Can helps Many Hands make light work of bridge
When design studio Many Hands were commissioned to brighten up a railway bridge in South London, a conversation with Bradite provided the solution – One Can. Working with Greenwich London Borough Council to improve the appearance of the public space, Many Hands painted a multi-coloured design for the Plumstead railway bridge. The design was created by Make:Good who work with local communities to improve the environment. In need of a high-performance coating that would provide superior protection, Many Hands turned to the Bradite technical specialists, whose suggestions had proved invaluable for previous projects, including the HQ of cycling lifestyle brand RAPHA. On this occasion, the chosen fi nish had to satisfy the technical requirements of the Network Rail M24 certifi ed paint system. “They have strict guidelines about what paints to use on their structures, so they were given the details about Bradite One Can and they approved it,” explains Many Hands Director, Luke James. The job took 10 days, with One Can’s extensive palette of RAL colours supplying everything required for the job.

A Manchester based passive fi re protection specialist has utilised products from the range of TBA FIREFLY™ – including the versatile Phoenix Smoke & Flame barriers – to achieve the compartmentation of concealed spaces within the new Macclesfi eld manufacturing facility of a world-leading pharmaceutical giant. Firetech UK Ltd is a key sub-contractor to DES for the construction of the extensive new laboratories and production plant for AstraZeneca, part of the FTSE 100 company’s continuing investment at its East Cheshire site for the distribution of drugs to markets around the world. The Contracts Manager for Firetech UK on the Macclesfi eld Project, Josh Dodds comments: “We have been using FIREFLY™
products for the past fi ve
years, including here on this very large new plant. Early on in the contract we installed a large quantity of TITAN Lite™
installing a series of smoke and fl ame barriers in the ceiling voids over the laboratories, we proposed the Phoenix product as being the most cost-effective solution.”

Despite the huge progress which has been made in health and safety standards and practice across the UK construction industry over recent decades, falls from height continue to pose the biggest risk in terms of injury or worse. The ongoing risk has
prompted SFS, one of the largest manufacturers of safety equipment, to launch a new initiative intended to maximise the protection of contractors. The SFS Fall Protection Installer Network has been created to provide a platform dedicated to advancing competency and awareness for companies and their individual operatives.
