Fibo’s leading waterproof wall system has been confirmed to have a total lifetime carbon footprint that is 37% lower when compared to tiles in a new independent study. This means that the Fibo waterproof wall system is not only five times faster to install, more
robust and more hygienic than tiles, but it is also the more environmentally conscious choice for new build and refurbishment projects. Fibo wall panels are constructed primarily from wood, in fact, the high-quality plywood core accounts for 80% of the panel weight. The wood captures carbon during the growth of the tree and stores it for the lifespan of the product. Customers can be assured of the sustainability of the material.

The conversion of three stone-built agricultural buildings near the beautiful Devon town of Totnes is employing a full selection of renewable and low-energy technologies from the range of Exeter based manufacturer, OMNIE, to create a comfortable living environment. The hundred year old buildings at Ritson Farm are being renovated and turned into highly desirable rural retreats by The Dartmouth Building Company. Each of the luxury homes is to be heated by an LV air source heat pump, which will be connected via multi-branch manifolds to OMNIE’s Staple underfloor heating system across the ground floors with the company’s LowBoard being specified to warm the upper levels. Then to maximise fuel efficiency and help guarantee a healthy indoor living environment, a constant supply of pre-warmed and filtered fresh air will be supplied via one of OMNIE’s Zehnder ComfoAir mechanical ventilation with heat recovery (MVHR) units. As well as installing internal wall insulation, the vaulted roofs to the early 20th

a breather membrane. Coupled with the ComfoAir MVHR units, the development also illustrates OMNIE’s capabilities to design and deliver its ‘Whole-House” concept.
