NATRATEX landscape surfacing gets a new look


T


he NatraTex brand has just been relaunched with a new look. The new brand logo has been developed to convey the natural aggregates used in the manufacture of the product. At the same time this successful and established product range in hard landscaping has been simplified to NatraTex Cotswold for all buff surfaces, whether pedestrian or trafficked, and NatraTex Colour for all colours available other than buff. The NatraTex rebranding comes as a new identity is also introduced for the BituChem Group, the manufacturers of the NatraTex range, to reflect its growing position in its key markets of hard landscaping and highways. NatraTex Cotswold has proved to be a particular favourite due to its attractive and stylish reflection of Cotswold stone.


Often used to match the corporate colours of a building or to create multi- use games areas (MUGA), NatraTex Colour can significantly reduce the cost of a project by eliminating the need for surface or demarcation paints.

acksons Fencing was commissioned to supply and install security fencing around two perimeters at Bickley Park School in South East London. The school site consists of a mix of listed buildings and newer contemporary facilities, all set in attractive grounds. The modern structures include a purpose-built nursery, with strong environmental credentials, and a multi- purpose astro pitch, to complement the existing sports facilities. The eco nursery features modern, airy classrooms filled with natural daylight; an outdoor covered decking area and an additional natural outdoor environment to promote free-flow indoor/outdoor learning. Jacksons Anti Trap Bow Top fencing was installed around the nursery site perimeter to provide a visible layer of security that was aesthetically pleasing to the eye and sensitively fitted to lessen the impact on the area’s main occupants; very young children, as well as to complement the surrounding natural habitat. Jacksons EuroGuard® Flatform welded mesh fences and gates were installed to protect the school’s new astroturf pitch.

ltro has launched the new Altro Wood™ Safety collection and three new complimentary flooring ranges, inspired by nature and combining functional performance with modern design.


Both the 2mm Altro Wood Safety and 2.85mm Altro Wood Safety Comfort give the performance and slip resistance you’d expect from an Altro safety floor (PTV ≥36).. The new Safety collection retains many of the most popular current Altro Wood colours alongside exciting contemporary shades. Altro Wood Safety is ideal for environments such as hospital and care home corridors and patient rooms, retail, schools and universities. Its 14dB sound reduction makes it well suited for noisy environments such as corridors and classrooms in schools and kindergartens, and many areas in hospitals and social housing.
