INDUSTRY NEWS 📢 TTA Represents the Industry by Successfully Lobbying NHBC to Change Their Guidelines The Tile Association (TTA) has been working with the British Adhesives & Sealants Association (BASA) and Construction Products Association (CPA) to highlight concerns with the NHBC Technical Guidance 2023 Clause 9.2-06 Wet Area Specs – Tanking requirements. Since the guidelines proposed by the National House Building Council (NHBC) on 27th July 2023 did not concur with the British Standards Codes of Practice for wall and floor tiling or products available on the British market, TTA believed that the NHBC's technical guidance would cause major confusion, lack of availability and possible misuse of product. TTA Technical & Training Manager Martin Pouncey and experts from TTA's Technical Committee have addressed these issues and agreed a number of changes to bring the guidance in line with British Standards and best practices. The date of effect on the guidance has been delayed from 1st July 2024 to the end of December 2024 until matters are resolved. The Tile Association has come to the rescue for the benefit of its members and the industry. TTA is committed to raising tiling standards and will continue to pursue this matter. A further meeting has been agreed to address remaining concerns. Contact TTA to find out more technical@tile.org.uk. #Technical #BritishStandards #Membership

🌟 6 Cᴏᴍᴍᴏɴ Mɪꜱᴛᴀᴋᴇꜱ ᴛᴏ Aᴠᴏɪᴅ Wʜᴇɴ Iɴꜱᴛᴀʟʟɪɴɢ PPGI Rᴏᴏꜰꜱ 🌟 Installing a PPGI roof can be a significant investment for your property, but ensuring it’s done right is crucial for durability and aesthetics. Here are six common mistakes to avoid: 1️⃣ Neglecting Proper Measurements: Always double-check your dimensions to prevent costly errors. 2️⃣ Ignoring Manufacturer Guidelines: Follow the installation manual closely for optimal results. 3️⃣ Overlooking Ventilation Needs: Proper ventilation can prevent moisture buildup and extend the lifespan of your roof. 4️⃣ Using Low-Quality Fasteners: Invest in high-quality fasteners that are compatible with PPGI materials for secure attachment. 5️⃣ Forgetting about Drainage: Ensure proper drainage to avoid water pooling, which can lead to rust and damage. 6️⃣ Skimping on Professional Help: While DIY can be tempting, hiring professionals can save you time and money in the long run. By avoiding these pitfalls, you can enhance the longevity and performance of your PPGI roof.

Another challenging issue we have been dealing with over the past few years is the ban on engineered stone that Federal and State and Territory Governments have implemented. Check out the latest in an article I was interviewed on - regarding the domestic ban that took effect 1 July this year (with some state tansition periods), the import ban that will commence 1 Jan 2025, and broader silica regulations that commeced 1 September this year. https://lnkd.in/ggHEm64Q HIA has an extensive catalouge of resources to assist industry in keeping up to date, how to practically apply with the silica rules and other useful safety guidance. https://lnkd.in/gFguKSWs

🌏 The WTO report for the third quarter of 2024 shows that the global goods trade prosperity index has reached 103, maintaining positive growth. This positive trend has created a favorable environment for investment and maintenance of coastal projects. The advanced technology of Yukuo FRP sheet piles complements the recovery of the market and can provide an ideal solution for your project. Sheet piles and seawall piling are often used in coastal projects. The change of waves leads to dry-wet cycles, resulting in an increase in corrosion rate. In most cases, corrosion occurs in the splash zone, which can be defined as the difference between the lower and upper limits of the waves.The large size of sheet piles and seawalls, and the fact that they are partially submerged in water, make their corrosion resistance challenging. Yukuo frp sheet piles are an economical solution for such projects. Features and advantages: -Can effectively replace steel sheet piles and wooden piles -Can achieve fast and economical transportation and installation -Will not corrode, almost no maintenance required.

How to Choose Good Gypsum Powder When selecting high-quality gypsum powder, pay attention to the following points: 1.Purity: High-quality gypsum powder should have high purity to ensure effective application. 2.Fineness: Fine and uniform particles make mixing and application easier. 3.Strength: Choose gypsum powder with high strength and moderate hardness to ensure stability and durability after construction. 4.Whiteness: The whiter the gypsum powder, the better the quality and the more aesthetically pleasing the result. 5.Eco-friendliness: Opt for non-toxic and eco-friendly gypsum powder to ensure safety and health during construction. Choosing the right gypsum powder ensures smooth project execution and achieves ideal results.Learn more about this product,view https://buff.ly/3X5Rfsw #GypsumPowder #BuildingMaterials #ConstructionGuide #EcoFriendlyMaterials #InteriorDecoration

Giacomini multilayer pipes and fittings are widely used in plumbing and heating systems due to their reliability, versatility, and ease of installation. Giacomini multilayer pipes consist of multiple layers, typically including a polyethylene (PEX) or polypropylene (PPR) inner layer, an aluminum core, and an outer protective layer of polyethylene. This combination provides the pipes with both flexibility and strength. The fittings are often made from brass or plastic and are designed to securely join the pipes while ensuring a leak-proof connection. Advantages: -Durability -Flexibility -Thermal Expansion -Easy Installation -Leak-proof Connections -Certified -Long Lifespan

Vacuum Insulation Panels (VIPs) are advanced thermal insulation materials that provide exceptional insulation performance with minimal thickness. They consist of a rigid core material enclosed in a gas-tight envelope, creating a vacuum that significantly reduces heat transfer. VIPs are ideal for applications requiring high thermal efficiency, such as refrigeration, construction, and packaging. Key Benefits: High Insulating Performance: VIPs offer superior thermal resistance compared to traditional insulation materials. Space-Saving Design: Their thin profile allows for more efficient use of space. Durability: VIPs have a long service life when properly handled and installed. Applications: Refrigeration units Building insulation Cold chain logistics #VacuumInsulationPanels #VIP #ThermalInsulation #EnergyEfficiency #SpaceSaving #SustainableBuilding #Refrigeration #ConstructionMaterials
