isit JACKON’s stand at UK Construction Week and fi nd out how the sustainable houses of the future will be built.
JACKON’s two building systems - JACKODUR®
Atlas and THERMOMUR® Insulated Concrete Formwork (ICF) - are revolutionising UK house construction. This technology is growing at a time when the Future Homes Standard is set to be a key feature of the construction industry going forward, underpinning the green development of the housebuilding market. JACKON’s building systems help developers meet and surpass the requirements of all the latest regulations, including the recent changes to the Part L regulations, which have meant that from June this year, all new homes must produce 31% less CO2 emissions, compared to what was acceptable under the previous Part L regulations. This puts the responsibility for achieving improved energy performance on to the developers of new dwellings. By using THERMOMUR® ICF moulded
expanded polystyrene (EPS) to create the formwork and JACKODUR® ATLAS extruded polystyrene (XPS) to create an insulated fl oor slab, as well as JACKOBOARD® insulated tile backerboard for internal tiling in bathrooms, wetrooms and other areas, developers can ensure that their projects are sustainable and energy-effi cient. JACKON THERMOMUR® achieves a u-value of
0.15 for walls with no added materials, and the JACKODUR® ATLAS system can be designed to achieve 0.11. ICF integrates insulation materials into the concrete formwork, totally revolution- ising the way a house is constructed. As well as being easier and quicker to build, an ICF house provides considerable advantages during the life of a building. The benefi ts include: dramat- ically improved insulation and air tightness

bits, it’s a privilege to join the board. I do not underestimate the responsibilities that come with the role, but I am excited to take them on.”
Harrison Thompson congratulates Alison on this fantastic promotion.
