Strategic Partnership with Willmott Dixon

We’ve been a strategic partner with Willmott Dixon for several years now, ever since our Fire Door Foam^TM was mandated on their ‘Yellow Book platform’.  The online manual exists to enable their staff and supply chain partners to use verified products on their projects. 

To meet their careful criteria we had to demonstrate the foam’s high-performance fire-stopping capabilities when installed between different substrates and timber fire doorsets.  As such a safety-critical component, we also had to provide its third-party test certification from Certifire, IFC and Warringtonfire to assure them of its credentials.

Ryan Atkinson, Senior Strategic Buyer at Willmott Dixon comments

“Fire and Acoustic Seals Fire Door Foam^TM is now listed on our ‘Yellow Book platform’ – Willmott Dixon’s online guide to preferred materials, site installation and workmanship best practice.

The foam went through our rigorous diligence checks to ensure it meets the set criteria required to become a specified product in the guide and to become a key component of the Willmott Dixon standard kit of parts. 

This product represented a rounded view of quality, cost and time which are some of the key factors we consider when selecting products for our ‘Brand Standard’.”

Our Fire Door Foam^TM has since been used on many Willmott Dixon projects across the UK. One of these is the high-profile Perry Barr Residential Scheme in Birmingham which will provide 1,400 much needed new homes in the city when complete.

Ashley Devonport, Senior Quality Manager at Willmott Dixon comments

“Fire and Acoustic Seals Fire Door Foam^TM has been used to seal the gaps between the door and substrates on the apartments, risers, and communal areas on the prestigious Perry Barr Residential Scheme. 

This product is mandated on our Yellow Book platform and was selected for its excellent fire-proofing properties and independent test evidence.

Julian and the team also provided excellent product training and speedy technical support when needed.”
