56 BUILDING FABRIC Senior raises the bar at landmark
Senior Architectural Systems’ PURe® aluminium windows and doors have been widely used across the new Perry Barr residential development in Birmingham, which is one of the city’s largest ever housing and regeneration projects. Senior’s unique PURe® aluminium system features a highly- efficient expanded polyurethane (PUR) thermal barrier, and the company was recently recognised with a King’s Award for Enterprise for the successful development of the system and its commitment to innovation. The company’s
patented PURe® window system can achieve U-values as low as 0.71W/m2
when calculated as a commercial CEN Standard window to comfortably meet the latest targets set out by Part L of the Building Regulations.

More than 30 timber frame homes are benefiting from an external wall insulation system manufactured by Sto to help reduce heating costs and energy. Constructed by Westridge Construction for Hyde New Homes, the crescent-shaped development consists of 32 homes ranging from two to four bedrooms. Located in Saltdean, East Sussex, the art-deco inspired properties are located between the south coast and the South Downs National Park. The StoTherm Vario expanded polystyrene insulation (EPS) system, including Sto-Rotofix mini mechanical fixings, were specified and installed by Square 1 Architectural Solutions. Compared to rail systems, the Rotofix fixings require fewer components, the insulation boards can be installed more quickly, and Rotofix enables better levelling capabilities, as the fixings can easily be adjusted to provide a level surface prior to installing the rendered facade. The StoTherm Vario system was finished with StoSilco K silicone resin render, in white, to provide high water repellence and resistance to dirt build-up, as well as the growth of algae and fungus. To enable the render to be applied around the circular windows which feature throughout each property, a curved bead was also supplied by Sto to help form the neat render finish.
