CaberFloor P5 ticks the eco boxes
The conservation of our natural environment
has become ever more important to
developers , consultants and contractors , whose
clients want to see more sustainable products
being used in homes and business premises . As
a result , West Fraser ' s particleboard products
- including CaberFloor P5 - are specified in
preference to more traditional flooring for ecoconscious
projects .
90 % of the wood used in West Fraser ' s
particleboard is recycled while , being a fully
engineered product , CaberFloor helps to
minimise waste through accurate usage and
pinpoint specification . Meanwhile , specifying
CaberFloor saves time on site as fewer
intermediate supports or noggins are required
during installation .

Zentia launches new acoustic calculator
An online acoustic calculator that helps
architects and other specifiers check ceiling
product performance against acoustic
standards in just three simple steps has
been launched by the UK ' s leading ceilings
manufacturer Zentia .
While the focus of the new acoustic calculator
is education , due to its particularly stringent
acoustic requirements , future developments
of the calculator will expand on this strong
baseline . Zentia ' s new acoustic calculator also
allows the user to view technical details and
sustainability information , order a sample ,
contact Zentia ' s specification team for a
consultation , and to add their chosen product
to an NBS specification . The launch of the
acoustic calculator comes hard on the heels of
another innovative Zentia design tool - Sonify
3D Studio , an online parametric configurator
that allows each design of discontinuous ceiling
to be visualised and exported as a Revit file to
support digital workflows .
