Flat Roofing A NIGHT TO REMEMBER IKO Polymeric enjoyed a very successful night at this year’s SPRA Awards winning five awards with their projects demonstrating the best use of Single Ply. Working with DVC Roofing, the company was the winner of Best Detailing Award for their Goosecroft Lane project, a residential building based in Northallerton. This complex, multi-slope pitched roof is a great example of what can be achieved with good planning and a highly-trained workforce. Aesthetics were the key; therefore every single detail had to be spot on with no tolerance for short cuts. DVC Roofing’s installation team made sure that every element of the roof build-up was installed as neatly as possible to give the roof a crisp and neat finish on the standing seams. Tongue and groove type OSB deck, adhered vapour control layer and insulation coupled with careful loading of boards ensured a consistent bond and provided the roof with a superb finish. As well as being the winner of the Best Detailing category, IKO Polymeric was also highly commended in four other award categories: Best Innovation with Hinkley Point C Power Station Temporary Accommodation, Best Refurbishment and Best Sustainability with North Hertfordshire District Council (NHDC), and finally Best Safe Working with Rock House Sen School. IKO Armourplan was the choice of single ply membrane for all these winning projects and ticked many different boxes to match the specific requirements of each project. For the Hinkley Point C Power Station, IKO Polymeric worked with Marksman Roofing to produce prefabricated roofing sheets to waterproof a 10,000m² roof. 44 identical roof modules were manufactured offsite with Armourplan PSG membrane and shipped to the site for final installation. The modular manufacture methods provided up to 50% Contact IKO Polymeric: www.ikopolymeric.com reduction in the schedule compared to traditional build, assured levels of quality and minimal environmental impact. Working with Delomac Roofing, IKO Polymeric also showed great initiative with the refurbishment of NHDC Offices. The ‘Zero Defects on Handover’ target was achieved through successful supply chain cooperation and potential waste to landfill has been dramatically reduced by retaining the existing deck and using woodwool as a contributor to the required thermal upgrade. And lastly, thanks to NRA Roofing’s attention to Health & Safety issues during the installation of the pitched roof at Rock House SEN School, IKO Polymeric closed the night with five awards. EUROPE MOVE FOR PFC Perfect Finish Coatings (PFC), one of the biggest waterproofing contractors in the Gulf region with its HQ in UAE, Dubai, is proud to announce that it is expanding to Europe and initially starting operations in the UK. After establishing in Cambridge, PFC was chosen to carry out main waterproofing works at Thematic Districts on the Expo 2020 site, Dubai. The project was partially funded by English financial institutions, so PFC was perfectly matched to implement these works, having presence in the UK and UAE, as the UK presence was a requirement from the Expo authorities. Currently PFC has reached more than 1,000,000m² of successfully installed membrane, with a similar area of roofing to follow. Having a very successful track record of projects with big UK construction players like Laing O’Rourke, Kier, Balfour Beatty, Mace International, Maclaren, Khansaheb interserve, plus many more for more than 10 years in the UAE, the team at PFC is very confident of providing value in the UK market. A spokesperson for PFC explained: “We have strong project managers and engineers in our team, consisting of English and professionals from other countries, and we can involve them as well as a locally employed team in England in executing various complex projects. “The UAE has the presence of all well-known international construction chemicals manufacturers, and we at PFC have approved applicator certificates from all major brands like Sika Sarnafil, BASF, MAPEI, Fosroc, Kingspan and Stirling Lloyd, to name just a few. We have full support from their management to enter the UK Contact PFC: www.pfc-gulf.com market. We at PFC can execute any complex project using any known waterproofing system, starting from membranes like TPO, PVC and bitumen, to liquid spray applied Polyurea systems, brigde deck waterproofing and hot melt. “We are excited to make such an important step in the development of PFC globally and start our operations in Europe, and especially in the UK. We are looking forward to building relationships with main contractors and clients in the UK, and to show our strength and experience in delivering big complex waterproofing projects.” 50 TC AUGUST <strong>2018</strong>
