“This was a very complex job and Europanel was primarily chosen to meet the aesthetics of the project. The main feature on the building is a huge window pod that runs down 2/3rds of the elevation. At the time of design, we were unsure of how to incorporate this. We asked Eurobond how it could be done – Eurobond didn’t know at the time but found a way!”

“Utilising a composite panel system with a non-combustible core ensures that the system doesn’t contribute to fire spread and Eurobond products uniquely offer symmetrical protection which helps defend against arson attack too.”

“From the value engineering point of view we wanted to achieve the biggest possible spans with the minimum amount of steelwork – whilst achieving fire performance to Crown Standards. We have really exploited this benefit on phases two and three and are generally spanning 6 metres from column to column – in some cases we are even spanning 7 metres.”

“Although we specified Firemaster panels for the internal partition walls of the centre, we still needed to ensure they were capable of withstanding the harshest of weather conditions as every building component had to be transported on the Snowdon Mountain Railway – we therefore wanted a product that was as tough and durable as possible.”

“Safety was a key consideration for the building’s interior construction. In a large development such as this, a product was needed that provided a high level of fire protection. Firemaster Extra is non-combustible and emits minimal amounts of smoke in the event of a fire. Both key factors in safeguarding Tesco’s stock against fire or smoke damage”

“We were extremely impressed by Eurobond’s capability. Often with composite panel systems you are restrained to designing around a company’s manufacturing capacity and often find yourself being asked to move a window or alter a feature band. With this project there was no such option, Eurobond was tasked with delivering a wide variety of modules to fit that design, which they did to a high standard”.

“Premiums in the re-insurance market increased some years ago for properties using cladding with PIR or PUR cores. It therefore made sense to specify fire resistant products from the outset that met with insurers’ requirements and did not penalize clients in the long term.”
