There has been much talk recently about BIM Level 2 and Common
Data Environments (CDE) such as Satellite CDE’s, Constellation CDE’s
and other variations of CDE. At Asite we believe in and enable one
CDE, with all the functionality that users are attempting to create
using these variations.
Earthborn paint confirmed
as Ska compliant
Earthborn has achieved its first
Ska Rating Product Compliance
label with its Ecopro Matt
Emulsion.
The RICS Ska Rating system
enables specifiers to certify
an office or retail fit-out for
sustainability best practice.
Ecopro Matt is a high
performance, environmentally
sound alternative to
conventional emulsions. Totally
oil, acrylic and VOC free, it is
highly breathable and odour
free. It gives excellent covering
power and a durable finish.
Ecopro Midsheen Emulsion,
which offers greater resistance
to marking, has been awarded
the ultimate eco credential - the
European Ecolabel
Many Earthborn paints hold the
stringent EU Ecolabel so Ecopro
Matt Emulsion passed the Ska
compliance test with flying
colours.

The Adoddle CDE leverages the Adoddle Model Server (cBIM) and
the Appbuilder engine to deliver powerful functionality for the entire
project team down to each and every individual user. All of your
models are federated, instead of existing as files in different folders
and projects. Even though ownership of component models remain
with the originators, everyone has a clear view of the merged model
within cBIM.
The Adoddle Platform also:
•
Supports ACL so that the owners can update their own models and
data is made available to other collaborators at the right time.
•
Supports cross model querying so everyone can see where objects
are being used and where they could be used more effectively
•
Supports versioning so that everyone is working off the latest
version
•
Supports accurate audit trails so that every user inter-action is
tracked & reported on
•
Is flexible enough to allow people to work the way they want, whilst
supporting rules that can also ensure all parties will follow agreed
naming conventions
“Whether you are approaching level 2 or are preparing for level 3, 4
and 5 - Adoddle is ready for Business - Get to IT" said Tony Ryan Asite

We are pleased to announce the
launch of Infinity Paint Company,
the only online paint company that
allows you to order exactly the
colour, finish and quantity of paint
you require from the comfort of
your home.
Archetech - Issue 20 [Page 48]
Jim Bruce, the Managing Director
of Infinity Paint Company, in
explaining the benefits said “We
manufacture paint using a new and
innovative system which produces
paint 'on demand'. You can select
precisely the colour and finish
required without the compromise
you may have encountered in
the past with conventional paint
suppliers. It also means you can
order just the quantity of paint
required, reducing unnecessary
waste.”
Colour selection is made via the
website where customers have
the option to select from screen or
order free colour palette swatches
of pure paint. It’s also possible to
order tester pots in any colour and
any finish; a service only Infinity
Paint Company can offer. It's easy
to find the colour you're looking
for by simply scrolling through
the colour palettes, grouped in
families; creams & whites, pinks &
reds etc. You can make selections
from the designer collection,
which includes 240 specially
selected shades, or the master
collection, which holds an archive
of thousands of colours.
Choosing the right paint finish is
also much easier. By selecting the
spaces you want to paint; living
room, bedroom, exterior etc. you
are presented with a selection of
appropriate paint finishes. Finally,
the handy paint calculator assists
with selecting the quantity of paint
you require, it helps to stop you
running short or buying too much
paint.
