Amvic ICF System |
|
|
Info: Can be used for almost any kind of
building, including residential developments, commercial
units, industrial buildings, self-build homes and
extensions, basement and earth sheltered development. It
is a cost effective method of construction that is more
sustainable and environmentally friendly than standard
masonry or timber frame.
Amvic is the most
user-friendly ICF on the market due to its innovative
design, which increases speed of construction, reduces
labour costs and provides the highest level of
performance during and after construction. The powerful
combination of the patented, reversible FormLock™
interlock, EPS composition, innovative web design and
web spacing result in a truer system, that requires less
support during installation; less wastage when compared
against other ICF systems; the ability to withstand
internal concrete vibration, ensuring a structurally
superior wall. |

AthyECOSlate |
|
|
Info: Homeowners want cost effective
eco-friendly building products that look good, are high
performance but with low lifetime maintenance. Builders
are looking for lower cost, labour saving materials. We
have developed AthyECOSlate, a hard impact resistant
plastic roof tile made from a specified recycled plastic
to satisfy both.
Our roof slate has
significant advantages over traditional roof tile
materials such as ceramic, slate or cement. AthyECOSlate
is much quicker and easier to install and it can be
walked on without cracking. It is light weight so your
roof design needs less supports and can be more flexible
from a design viewpoint. It is durable, low cost and
requires no maintenance as they will not crack, lift,
break or warp. As they do not contain any natural
minerals or asphalt / cement, they do not encourage the
growth of algae and moss. |

Auro |
|
|
Info: AURO decorating products are good for
you and good for the environment. They stand out among

uncompromising in their environmental standards. Their

a tiny amount of a synthetic, lead free drier, as no
natural alternative exists. This drier constitutes less
than 0.3% of the total volume of the product, and is
only used where necessary in some of their wood
finishes. |

|
Info: Specialises in reclaimed building
materials. We promote and facilitate the use of

sense. Construction and demolition waste is an untapped
resource. We work with demolition projects and with the
salvage sector, to reclaim unwanted materials and to
find end users for those materials. In doing so, we
are diverting materials from landfill and saving our
demolition partners money in waste disposal costs. We
work with all types of construction projects, to
increase the use of reclaimed materials in the building
process. We source materials to meet the needs of these
projects, and we offer advice on the use and
specification of reclaimed materials. |
