Application The installation for Mid and South Essex NHS Foundation Trust was carried out by C J Driscoll and Ruddick Contractors, for J W Steele & Sons Ltd, with Mapei materials supplied by RendMaster.
The invention follows Phase One works completed on the historic building last year. The Phase Two surface refurbishment works included a 450m2 courtyard area and stairwell. They followed an earlier Mapetherm installation within a courtyard area and across a one-sided section of original walling spanning approx. 400m2. The Mapei specification featured Silancolor Tonachino 1.5mm, a full silicone resin topcoat and Silancolor Base Coat primer, which were both applied over Mapetherm AR1 GG, reinforced with Mapetherm Net and then applied onto Mineral Wool insulation boards, pre-installed by the contractor. Silancolor Tonachino is a water-repellent, breathable siloxane coating product, used to repair and protect internal and external surfaces.
