We consulted the management of Churchill Square Shopping Centre in installing heavy duty recessed Entrance Matting to tackle this issue head on! We believe in stopping the two things that cause these slips & trips at the entrance; dirt and moisture.

SentryGlas® interlayer provides improved load bearing strength and stiffness of glass façade for the Enzo Ferrari Museum
Kuraray – Trosifol® - SentryGlas®
SentryGlas® interlayer provides mproved
load bearing strength and stiffness of glass façade for the Enzo Ferrari Museum.
Engineering the façade was a considerable challenge. Lighter façade panels enable more subtle supporting structures. For decades, interlayers made of polyvinyl butyral (PVB)
have been the industry standard when producing laminated safety glass. Architects are well aware of the possibilities and limitations of such glass when used extensively in façade
engineering, for roofing and window panels. In contrast, SentryGlas® enables an entirely new approach because the interlayer is over 100 times stiffer and five times stronger
than PVB.

ABG blueroof - Green Extensive, Rathbone Market, London, UK
ABG
The designer obtained consent under the latest SuDS regulations in the densely build area of London. Restriction on outflow rates to sewers demanded high attenuation. The original design for stormwater attenuation involved discharging tanks under the ground. This was expensive and took up valuable space, an alternative was required.
ABG proposed their Blueroof system which could be installed directly on to the hot melt waterproofing system allowing various surface finishes. Due to height limitations a cascade system was used. Various roof finishes included paved access, landscaped areas and bio diverse to attract wildlife. This increased the potential for BREEAM points.
