Stand S1031
Sterling OSB – one of the UK’s most versatile, popular and sustainable building materials – will take pride of place on the Norbord stand this year. The versatility of the product will be demonstrated with new roofing and flooring applications and a new range of solutions which meet UKTFA fire-rating requirements for timber frame buildings. Sterling OSB uses only timber from immature trees thinned from Scottish softwood forests, processed in Norbord’s Inverness factory using heat energy generated by the bark and other unusable leftovers from the manufacturing process. With similar biomass plants at each of its three UK factories, Norbord has remained one of Britain’s largest generators and users of renewable heat energy for more than a decade. Sterling OSB is made in a variety of thicknesses and offers a high-performing, low-cost alternative to plywood in many applications. Economical enough to be used for site hoarding and packaging, it is also strong enough for structural use, such as wall sheathing and flooring. Both square-edge and tongue-and-groove boards are available and Sterling OSB3 is a moisture-resistant grade for use in humid environments. As well as carrying FSC chain of custody certification, Sterling OSB is BBA-approved and recognised by NHBC technical standards for housing applications.

Stand S1930
Kemper System’s will mark the company’s return to Ecobuild with its Kemperol 2K-PUR solvent-free liquid waterproofing system and Stratex Warm Roof System.
Kemper System’s innovative Kemperol 2K-PUR solvent-free and odourless system is the first and only solvent-free wet-on-wet cold liquid waterproofing system available on the UK market to date.
The past year has seen a 33% growth in sales for the hard-wearing and durable waterproofing membrane, which bonds to almost any substrate to create a totally seamless, monolithic, U/V stable, elastomeric membrane. Based on an 80% castor-oil formulation derived from sustainable sources, the liquid system also incorporates a flexible non-woven reinforcement fleece, which is manufactured using a 25% recycled plastic bottle content. As the resin saturates the fleece in a single application process, the cured membrane cannot delaminate and is offered with a 20-year warranty.
Complementing the sustainability credentials of the Kemperol 2K-PUR system, Kemper System’s Stratex Warm Roof System offers a completely integrated warm roof system that incorporates primers, vapour barrier, insulation and waterproofing with a range of optional surfacing. Featuring a rigid PIR insulation board with a unique tongue and groove interlocking joint, the system significantly reduces cold bridging and gives a much smoother surface finis...01.02.13Roofing Today Reader Offer

Leading specialist waterproofing contractor, Stirling Lloyd Construction has won the Liquid Applied Flat Roofing Award at the recent 2012 Roofing Awards ceremony in Birmingham. Stirling Lloyd, which works on a wide range of building and civil engineering contracts, was recognised for its successful completion of a major 34,000m² roof waterproofing project at a prestigious new sports stadium in London. The award judges recognised the seamless protection against water penetration and other corrosive processes that was provided by the Knutsford-based company's Eliminator system, as well as the perfomance of its liquid applied expansion joint system, Sentinel Saba, which allows movement in three dimensions to accommodate the project's specially designed curved joints. Now in their seventh year and formerly NFRC Awards, the Roofing Awards have become an industry-wide competition recognising and rewarding outstanding standards of workmanship and safety within the roofing industry. Stirling Lloyd Construction's MD, Jim Meagher was delighted to be presented with the award, commenting: "It is a great achievement to win this coveted award and to be recognised as this year's leading liquid applied roofing contractor.
