Hanson Structherm is supplying its High Build external wall insulation (EWI) system to a major housing refurbishment scheme in Watford.
The 26-week project for Watford Community Housing Trust will see up to 118 properties in Boundary Way upgraded using more than 8,200 square metres of EWI.
It is part of the Trust’s commitment to providing quality homes for its residents. EWI is an efficient and cost-effective way of improving the thermal efficiency of a building, reducing both CO2 emissions and energy bills.
The project will use 60mm phenolic insulation and a silicone render finish to the first floor and the company’s Fastbrick insulated real brick slip cladding system, providing a total of 65mm phenolic insulation, to the ground floor.
Regional manager Mark Wooldridge said: “We are delighted to be working with Watford Community Housing Trust and contractor Concrete Repairs Ltd on this major project.
“As well as upgrading the appearance of the properties, our EWI system will greatly improve the thermal performance of the houses so residents can look forward to seeing their energy bills being cut dramatically in the future.”
