Boldon School
Tyneside
Architect Waring and Netts have specified Colorcoat HPS200® in both Sargasso and white with Eurobond’s Europanel to provide an attractive finish with inherent fire protection, increased sound insulation and greater thermal performance for Boldon School, a PFI secondary school in South Tyneside.
The combination of Colorcoat HPS200® (now superseded by Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra) and Europanel met the schools demands for a maintenance free, thermal and acoustically efficient building envelope.
Fixed to vertical studwork, the cladding achieved a Grade A fire rating. Additionally, the greater thickness of the panels improves sound insulation and thermal efficiency throughout the structure. These advantages are particularly beneficial for the school’s 220-seat community theatre, swimming pool and sports complex.
Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra®
Colorcoat HPS200 Ultra® pre-finished steel provides exceptional performance and corrosion resistance for building envelope applications. Guaranteed for up to 40 years it is backed up even more extreme testing and real world global data to demonstrate it’s super durable characteristics.
