Premium apartments in front of the Manchester skylineA total of 376 apartments are being built in five distinctive high-rise buildings. These are up to eight storeys high. Bridgewater Wharf is located between the digital business hubs of MediaCityUK, the trendy bars and restaurants of Deansgate and the elegant financial district of Spinningsfields. Fire protection class B and efficient working as criteria for window sealingWilliam Arcroft and his team are responsible for installing the windows. For him it was clear: the traditional products for sealing windows are not efficient. The installation takes too long and the cleaning effort is relatively too high.The robust, fully adhesive window tape Trestard 420 black FR fulfils the fire class B-s1,d0 required in Great Britain and is easy to apply. Furthermore, it is the ideal adhesive tape for the construction of high-rise buildings made of SFS, concrete or blockwork.

The iQ student accomodation complex on Bath Street in Glasgow is an urban development initiative replacing a vacant 1970s office block. The 12-floor building brings a fresh, contemporary design to the heart of the city. This modern facility includes 551 beds and a range of communal areas, such as a sports hall, games room, and catering facilities, spread over 1523 square meters. The project, built by GRAHAM and designed by Cooper Cromar, is the result of a successful collaboration to enrich the student experience in Glasgow.Comprehensive Support from SIGA The fire rated sealing tape, Trestard 420 black FR, was chosen for its reliable performance and ease of application. SIGA’s experts provided on-site support, delivering tailored recommendations and hands-on assistance to ensure the installation was executed smoothly and met all required standards.

Local resources, local suppliers and sustainable wood-based materials were the requirements for this 18-storey building in Brumunddal. Located 140 km north of Oslo, Mjøstårnet is tallest cross laminated timber (CLT) building in the world and is celebrated by the international construction industry as a first-class engineering achievement.

The roof of this listed building had been renovated multiple times in the past. The roof was originally built to be highly vapour-proof, as was the standard at the time. Solving the construction physics requirements was the job of Buschina & Partner Ziviltechniker GmbH. The particular challenge lay in the fact thatthe outer shell of the building cannot be altereda solution that worked from a construction physics perspective had to be found for the attic conversion with interior thermal insulation

Luxurious high-rises were built on the River Irwell in Manchester. The challenge for M3 Build: To find a robust window sealing system that complied with fire protection Class B or higher. 

In this wooden building in the center of Vienna, the walls, ceilings and floors are made from solid wood(CLT). The construction protection covering and sealing for the individual elements were achieved with the SIGA products Wetguard and Rissan.
