UK Roofing & Cladding – Class A is the Only Way!
Story
As part of Hodgson Sealants’ drive to help the roofing & cladding industry more easily meet regulations for air tightness and thermal performance, the company has phased out its HP400 NFRC Class B sealant to establish its high performing, industry recognised, GCA NFRC Class A butyl sealant as the new minimum market offering.
“Sealants play a critical role in ensuring the tight standards of the Building Regulations are met”, comments Noel Burke, roofing specialist at Hodgson Sealants. “All too often this small but critical component is forgotten or selected based on price”.
“This is why we feel the GCA Class A sealant should be the minimum standard we put out to the marketplace. Contractors and Specifiers can have complete confidence that any Hodgson sealant that is specified will keep their building air tight and weatherproof”.
GCA can be used for a number roofing and cladding applications, including sealing external metal sheeting, end and side laps, rooflights, gutters and flashings, penetrations and roof and wall membrane sealing.
