Bradite proves a boon for community café B


radite’s One Can has helped create a bright, airy and welcoming atmosphere in


a South Croydon community venture. Boon Café Croydon was conceived,


in the words of its founder Georgina Arsalides, as “a space for families to enjoy, a place for groups to meet and new friendships to form.” The


non-profit enterprise has been


transformed in appearance thanks to One Can paint, 50 litres of which were donated by Bradite.


“While putting together our vision for


Boon, we saw Bradite One Can and were able to choose a beautiful sky blue colour in their RAL colour range.” says Georgina. “Bradite was happy to gift the paint which we are so very grateful for, and the vision came to life.” Friends joined Georgina to do the decorating. “I was amazed at the coverage and how far the paint went. All the painting volunteers found the paint easy to use and were equally impressed with the two-coat prime and paint system.” She adds: “we had a quick turnaround of the renovation period, and the fact that the paint dries quickly and doesn’t have a strong odour was hugely beneficial. It was great that we didn’t have an overpowering smell whilst painting, which made the process more enjoyable

and comfortable!” Boon Café provides a hub for community activity and, in addition to the teas, coffees and tasty cakes, provides space for family storytelling, creative workshops and parties. And the


colour scheme has not gone


unnoticed. Georgina says: “I have had so many compliments on the colour of the room. People have been asking where it’s from, as they want to redecorate their house in the sky blue!”

Aruba: A trusted ceiling tile for generations T


rusted by generations of architects and installers,


Aruba is specified throughout the UK almost every single


day. With impressive sound properties, and a range of colours available it is an incredibly versatile range that can be found everywhere from hotels and offices to classrooms and retail environments.


The range has been named after the white sandy beaches of the Caribbean due to the finely sanded finish of the tile’s surface. The Aruba tile also reflects the vibrancy and colourful nature of the Caribbean, as it is available in 35 colours, the largest option of standard colours available on the UK market. For further design creativity,


the


Aruba family can be specified in alternative shapes such as the

Additional tiles with enhanced performances are available within the Aruba family including Aruba hH, Aruba Max and Aruba dB, each bringing unique performance capabilities.

a thorough solution. Combining Class C sound absorption with a sound attenuation level of 34 dB, the tile controls background noise levels whilst allowing sound to travel, creating an acoustically comfortable setting. It contains up to 44% recycled content, is 100% recyclable and is scratch resistant. Recently specified for an industrial site in


one of the UK’s most important manufacturing areas, the coloured Aruba tile was able to meet the aesthetic, functional and acoustic requirements set out for the project.


Aruba hH The Aruba hH tile offers enhanced high humidity resistance, making it ideal for areas such as changing rooms. It also has the same acoustic qualities as the Aruba tile; but can remain stable in conditions of up to 99% Relative Humidity (RH).


Aruba Max The Aruba Max is a more robust variation of the standard Aruba tile, designed for interiors that require a higher technical performance. With an increased tile thickness, it offers higher sound attenuation levels of 35 dB, and is perfect for settings such as classrooms where sound still has to travel but in a controlled manner.


Aruba dB


For internal settings that require extra levels of privacy such as meeting rooms and small offices, the Aruba dB tile offers the highest sound absorption rating at 39 dB and reduces sound transmission through the ceiling void.
