Knauf SFS speeds construction at prestige Crest Nicholson development
New homes in Portishead, Bristol Ninety4 on the Estuary included of 94 one and two-bedroom apartments.
Located along the Dockside of the Marina, the apartments overlook the estuary of the Bristol Channel and have a panoramic view of both Severn Bridges.
Crest Nicholson site manager, Dominic Hampton: The speed that it went up was terrific. The whole project went very well and Knauf facades provided excellent technical support in the initial stages, observing the fitting and checking the detailing. In particular their technical staff did full checks to ensure that the whole infill remained secure to the building.
The SFS panels are constructed from floor to soffit of the primary structural frame, effectively infilling the external wall, and are insulated both on the internal and external face.
The external face of the SFS panels carries 125mm of insulation which is then protected by a rainscreen panel that is rendered with Knauf Render Systems.
