In addition to the visual appeal and functional characteristics of these Profilpas profiles for floors and coverings, they also stand out for their versatility. The company has designed especially eclectic ranges which can fit into any space. From workplaces to living spaces, bathrooms to terraces, stairs to external or internal angles, these profiles provide tailor-made solutions which both suit and enhance the interior style of the customer’s space.
The materials used to make the profiles for floors and coverings are also varied. Aluminium, steel and brass profiles certainly stand out among the protagonists, combining material quality and refined design, to which PVC profiles are also added.
A Mapei system has been used to complete an extensive LVT floor installation at Islington Wharf 4, Manchester – a collection of 106 contemporary-styled canalside apartments. The installation was completed for Morgan Sindall Construction on behalf of Waterside Places and Latimer Developments. It spanned 7000m2 and featured Amtico Acoustic LVT flooring.
Set in Manchester’s New Islington, the £21 million development is the final phase of a 20-year regeneration of the area delivered by Waterside Places - a strategic joint venture between national placemaker Muse and the Canal and River Trust. The landmark 15-storey building, designed by Ryder Architecture, includes one and two bedroom canalside apartments finished to the highest standard and overlooking the New Islington Marina. Within the development, 54 apartments are available for affordable sale on a shared ownership basis. The development benefits from a ground floor convenience store, a Metrolink stop for fast access to the city centre and Manchester Piccadilly train station is a 10-minute walk away.
All Mapei products specified at Islington Wharf benefit from EMICODE: EC1 Plus formulations, with very low VOC’s, promoting a safe application and environment. Mapeproof Primer – a one-component, rapid drying ready-to-use waterproof surface membrane and Latexplan Trade – a protein-free, low odour levelling and smoothing compound – were used to prepare floors throughout apartments and corridors. Amtico Acoustic was then installed within apartments using Ultrabond Eco 4 LVT fibre-reinforced adhesive - a highly shear resistant, hard set, wet bed formulation.
