National Timber Systems launches NTSROOM™ – Integrated fl oor and roof system for UK housebuilders
N
ational Timber Systems (NTS) has unveiled NTSROOM™ – an integrated fl oor and roof solution which promises
to redefi ne effi ciency, safety, and quality in modern housebuilding. As the demand for faster, more sustainable
construction solutions continues to grow, NTSROOM™ off ers developers and housebuilders a comprehensive “Room in Roof” package including the cassette fl oor, that is factory-built and delivered ready for rapid installation on-site. A pair of semi-detached houses can now be installed in a single day using just one delivery, one crane, and one coordinated install plan. Part of the NTSROOF® suite alongside
NTSROOF® and SUPER-SPAN® NTSROOM™ is backed by BBA third-party certifi cation, providing proven quality, performance, and compliance to developers and specifi ers. Engineered for modern construction challenges, NTSROOM™ replaces high-level steels with a level wall plate start, building up to a fully insulated, weather-tight structure. The system feature pre-drilled holes in the fl oors for pipes and cables, reducing on-site modifi cations and installation errors. Already in use on live sites with regional and
national housebuilders, NTSROOM™ supports evolving regulations like Part L and Part O, off ering energy-effi cient solutions including
cantilevered roofs for shading. Its joist layout ensures exceptional stiff ness, shorter spans, and minimal on-site drilling. Developed around the principles of Simple.
Safe. Secure, NTSROOM™ empowers local carpenters to complete installations confi dently and quickly. The system includes the ‘Supply with Assist’ support package off ering: • Full installer training • Detailed RAMS support • Direct access to NTS experts • Cost-eff ective pricing
“NTSROOM is the natural progression for
NTSROOF” said Philip Carney, NTS technical and innovations director. “NTSROOF has always had a level
wallplate with a dwarf wall and a stubbed spandrel, integrating the fl oor is simple, as it is easily encapsulated in the current solution, growing on our need to do less on site.” As build schedules tighten and sustainability becomes key, NTSROOM™ arrives at the perfect moment for the UK construction industry.
