When was your partitioning wall last
serviced?
Many educational establishments now benefit from one or more
partitioning wall systems, delivering flexibility to available space by
allowing smaller classrooms to be quickly created, as required. As
with any product, the lifespan of a moveable wall can be dramatically
extended with routine servicing and timely repairs. Partitioning
experts Style,
recommends a service
contract as the most
cost-effective solution,
helping ensure safe
operation and maximum
acoustic performance
long into the future.
Style is the sole UK
supplier for both
DORMA and Skyfold
moveable walls and our
engineers are the only
ones in the UK currently
qualified to maintain
these systems in line
with manufacturer
recommendations.

maintenance of moveable wall systems, Style offers a comprehensive
aftercare service with a nationwide team of in-house trained
engineers.

flooring collection - Polysafe QuickLay PUR
Polyflor, the leading UK
Manufacturer of
commercial and
residential vinyl
flooring, is delighted to
announce the launch
of the new Polysafe
QuickLay PUR
Collection. Polysafe
QuickLay is a loose lay
safety flooring designed
for adhesive-free
installation and is the perfect solution for busy commercial
environments in need of a quick turnaround and where
sustainable slip resistance is a priority.
Designed to be a practical choice for contractors and specifiers
alike, Polysafe QuickLay is a temporary or permanent floor
covering which achieves the same performance and durability as
other Polysafe flooring collections but with the added benefits of
adhesive-free installation. The specially formulated studded
emboss on the underside of Polysafe QuickLay works as a barrier –
allowing moisture to escape from the subfloor – facilitating
installation over new concrete floors of up to 97% RH. The unique
double sided Polysafe Quicklay tape is fitted around the perimeter
of the room, underneath all seams and doorways securing the
flooring in place.

Armstrong helps herald “All for one, and one for all”
A trio of Armstrong Ceiling Solutions feature at the new Balloch Campus
in Dumbarton.
Ashowcase campus which has enabled three schools to co-locate has also
proved a showpiece for a trio of Armstrong Ceiling Solutions, including
TechZone, the industry’s first easy-to-specify-and-install ceiling solution
with integrated technical services.
The new state-of-the-art Balloch Campus in West Dunbartonshire features three
highly acoustic Armstrong Ceiling Solutions throughout – Perla OP 0.95 Tegular
mineral tiles on Prelude 24 TLX grid, Parafon Hygien Board mineral tiles on a 24mm
corrosion-resistant grid, and Armstrong’s revolutionary TechZone integrated ceiling
system incorporating Perla OP MicroLook planks.
Delivered by main contractor Morgan Sindall, they were specified by architects Holmes
Miller for the £16 million campus for “cost and quality” reasons and installed by
Armstrong’s Green Omega specialist sub-contractor Brian Hendry Interiors.
As part of their membership of Armstrong’s Green Omega network of recycling
installers Brian Hendry Interiors also recycled 300m2 of the new ceiling tile off-cuts
during the installation process, preventing almost a tonne of material going to landfill
and the consumption of an equivalent weight of raw materials.
For maximum acoustic comfort some 1,600m2 of Perla OP 0.95 600mm x 600mm tiles
with a Tegular edge detail within a standard 24mm grid were used in offices,
classrooms and stores. These tiles perform to Sound Absorption Class A and were also
the first mineral ceiling tile in Europe to win Cradle to Cradle certification as part of
the new generation of sustainable and acoustic ceilings offered by Armstrong.
In the corridors and breakout areas Armstrong’s TechZone integrated ceiling system
was specified with a 15mm XL2 grid, fabricated to special lengths of 900, 2100 and
2400mm.
