Building membrane specialist, ITP Ltd, has supplied Stamisol Safe One, the UK’s most advanced breather membrane, for a development of supported living apartments in Gateshead. |
|
The three-storey Astell House building includes 12 apartments, offices and communal space developed by Home Group, a leading provider of integrated housing, health and social care. Structural steel specialists. Intelligent Steel Solutions Ltd, installed Stamisol Safe One within the external wall to maintain the long-term condition of the building envelope. The membrane provides effective and durable protection against rainwater while allowing the release of internal water vapour, preventing the build-up of condensation in the insulation layer. |
Winner of Product of the Year in the Façade 2022 Design and Engineering Awards, Stamisol Safe One is the first breather membrane in the UK to combine a W1 rating for water tightness, breathability to BS5250 standards, waterproofing of 7,000mm, UV resistance of 5,000 hours and a Euroclass A2 limited-combustible rating, going above and beyond the fire safety standards required under post-Grenfell building regulations. |
ITP Account Manager, Caroline Collins, said: “Since its launch in the UK, Stamisol Safe One has been chosen for a wide range of projects and the product has received widespread industry recognition, including multiple award nominations. The system is an especially popular specification for high-rise and higher-risk buildings as its Euroclass A2 credentials match the standards required by law for cladding, ensuring that fire safety is maximised throughout an external wall. Stamisol Safe One is manufactured to provide those safety standards without compromising the effectiveness of its primary functions in allowing the building to breathe and preventing the ingress of rainwater.” |
