The decision by Tingdene Homes to switch from tiles to Marbrex decorative panels from Swish Building Products for the bath and shower rooms of the park homes it builds has made fitting easier and cut installation time by up to 50%.Marbrex panels in Beige Marble are installed in
shower rooms, around baths and over basins in the majority of the
units that are fabricated by Tingdene, which is the UK's largest
manufacturer of residential park homes.
Steve Walker, Product Development Manager of
Tingdene, explains, "We produce approximately 18 units a week, and
the use of Marbrex really helps to speed up the process, because it
is simple to install and does not require gluing and grouting.
What's more, the panels are waterproof and look good."
"We build residential park homes for both the
standard and luxury ends of the market, as well as leisure homes
and log cabins for holiday use. We are also called upon
occasionally to build extensions for schools and we need to know
that the products we install are of the very highest quality, and
will conform to the relevant Building Regulations."
Marbrex panels conform to the Food Safety Act
1990, the General Hygiene Regulations 1995 and achieve a Class 1Y
fire rating. Available in a variety of different designs, the
versatile panels can be easily fitted to walls or ceilings, even
over existing tiled surfaces.
The panels have waterproof tongue and groove
joints that do not require grouting, producing a surface that is
easy to clean. Their honeycomb structure helps to insulate the room
and so reduce condensation. This in turn helps to discourage the
growth of mould.
Available from a national network of
stockists,Marbrex wall panels are available in 2.6m and2.7m lengths
with ceiling panels of 4m, and come with a comprehensive selection
of fixing trims to ensure a professional finish. Some designs take
decorative strips in gold and silver to form striking highlights
between panels.
