Skanska Specifies Cygnus Wireless Alarm
System For New City Building
The Monument Building in the heart of the City of London
is one of the current projects to use Bull Products latest
Cygnus wireless alarm system during construction works.

specified some 26 units for installation across all 10 floors
of the building project. The Cygnus alarm system can
link as many as 480 alarm and detector units in different
zones on a construction site, and individual units can be fire
alarm call points, first aid alerts, combined call points and
first aid alerts, smoke detectors or heat detectors.
Bull Products offers a full one-year guarantee on all
Cygnus devices and provides high levels of technical,
on-site and after-sales service support in addition to its
standard maintenance contracts.

Engaging Sales Brochure Details
Celsius Solid Roof
Is Your Structural Waterproofing Design
Robust Enough For a Warranty?

Installer and homeowner enquiries for Synseal’s innovative Celsius Solid Roof are now fully supported by an
informative new sales brochure entitled “Quick to fit,
strong and warm… the right roof for the job.”
This engaging and well-presented 24-page publication
provides full technical details to illustrate how the product
components are delivered to site in kit format to exactly
meet project specifications and then swiftly fitted
together to build a truly warm roof construction.
Celsius Solid Roof uses a skeleton of specially-engineered C24 construction grade structural timbers to form
ridge and hip assemblies that neatly receive the Kingspan
TEK Building System structural insulated panels and,
because no aluminium is used, any possibility of cold
bridging is eradicated. The brochure fully explains this
fundamental technical advantage along with sections outlining end-user benefits, speed of installation, key suppliers.
Are your structural waterproofing designs based on a
risk assessment produced by a qualified specialist? Have
you appointed a waterproofing specialist at an early stage
of the design? If not then a building insurance company
is unlikely to issue you with a warranty.
BS 8102: 2009 and NHBC standards now include
recommendations that any waterproofing system designs
are based upon an appropriate risk assessment and
produced by someone suitably qualified.
INK Technical Services helps housebuilders and architects
meet the standards’ requirements so insurance companies
are satisfied that a robust waterproofing system is in place.

RMIG appears on The House That 100k Built
RMIG has helped an ambitious couple on BBC TWO
show The House That 100k Built to successfully build
their dream home in Burnley. The world’s leading perforated materials specialist was shown on the programme
and delivered an eye-catching perforated decorative panel
that would transform the dull staircase into a striking
centrepiece of the home’s downstairs.
RMIG worked very closely with Wajid and Anam during
the consultation period and specified a 3mm thick aluminium screen featuring Islamic script that was extremely
personal to the couple. Using its innovative ImagePerf
technology, RMIG expanded on Anam’s artistic designs
and produced a stylish and tasteful floor to ceiling
perforated screen.
With the couple’s time and budget constraints in mind,
RMIG delivered the high quality and stunning screen in
a cost and time effective manner.
RMIG can perforate sheet metal to meet any desired
style, producing limitless designs and patterns to achieve
unique and attention-grabbing architectural visions.
