Saniflo spells out the showering possibilities
Story

The UK’s leading designer and manufacturer of pumps, macerators and shower cubicles, Saniflo UK, now has a stylish, easy to follow leaflet and poster spelling out all the Saniflo shower pump and shower tray possibilities.
The two-page leaflet highlights in detail the features of the Sanifloor 1 and 2, Sanifloor 3, Traymatic, Sanishower Flat and the Sanishower +, with important information about the low level and traditional height options displayed for each product, whilst the eye-catching poster provides an at-a-glance overview of the Saniflo shower pump range.
The Saniflo range of shower pumps and trays offers a solution for every type of bathroom, from uber contemporary bathrooms that require sleek, low level shower trays, which is a growing trend; to the more traditional bathrooms with step-up higher shower trays; and, there’s also a solution for wetroom applications even when floor formers are used. The height of the Saniflo shower trays ranges from 0cm to 12cm.
Ann Boardman, Saniflo UK Head of Marketing and Product Development, comments: “With the Saniflo range of shower pumps and shower trays it really is possible to have the shower you want anywhere a water supply can reach, without the need for mains drainage to be present at the site of the shower. There are subtle yet important differences between the products and this new leaflet clearly and concisely explains the best product for specific scenarios, from contemporary to traditional designs, helping industry professionals make the right choice for their clients.”
The new leaflet is being distributed to merchants and installers nationwide.

Universal Roof Clamp Ring Simplifies Roof Outlets Installations

The installation of roof outlets has been made easier and faster thanks to the development of a universal roof clamp from Saint-Gobain PAM.
The new clamp ring has been designed to work with all roof types from liquid membrane installations with a typical thickness of just 2mm up to standard felt or bitumen with a depth of up to 8mm.
Says Mike Rawlings, Marketing Manager for Saint-Gobain PAM UK, “We are constantly developing the Vortx range of outlets. The development of the Universal roof clamp is in response to customer demand. It will help make both specification and installation simpler for the roofing contractor.”

Marshall-Tufflex trunking pre-fabricated into Battersea apartment project
Story

More than 500 apartments in the £9 billion revamp of London’s iconic Battersea Power Station have utility cupboards pre-fabricated with a cable management solution from leading British manufacturer Marshall-Tufflex.
The cupboards were assembled off-site and delivered complete with Marshall-Tufflex Sterling Profile 3 white trunking to supply power for apartment ventilation and heat interface units, cupboard lighting, hot water, the fire alarm and security system, satellite television, BT networks, a leak detection panel and washing machine. A ‘non-power’ section carries EMS wiring and outgoing data, telephone and TV cables together with a link to energy metering/billing services. Electrical wholesaler was Edmundson Electrical, Twickenham.
“This has been a really interesting project to work on for two reasons,” said Marshall-Tufflex Project & Specification Manager, Barry Roberts. “We are best known for working in the commercial cable management sector, so to supply a large and prestigious domestic project was an interesting request. It is also somewhat unusual for trunking to be pre-fabricated in this manner but for this project it made total sense and allowed for an integral element of each apartment to be prepared in a controlled environment and simply slotted into place and connected up at exactly the right time in the build schedule.
“Marshall-Tufflex’s Sterling Profile 3 has delivered an incredibly neat finish that keeps all cabling hidden and inaccessible while delivering a large amount of power and data cabling to the required services. Its square edges fit cleanly together and multi-compartments allow for versatility and full segregation of services,” added Mr Roberts.
Sterling Profile 3 is 167 x 50mm and available in a variety of colours and finishes, with a range of corners, flat angles, bends and tees available. Dividing fillets allow further segregation of services within each compartment and aluminium screening inserts or conductive spray coatings are available to assist with both electromagnetic immunity and emissions.
