This project delivered another new product to us; Cor-ten rainscreen panels.
The Project
This is one of our smaller projects in compassion to others. The project delivered another new product to us; Cor-ten rainscreen panels. The premise of these panels is that they are designed to build up a layer of rust to create a rusty and aged aesthetic to the structure (we would advise not to lean on these panels, especially if you are wearing white! We also provided gold anodised aluminium cladding & the single ply roofing to the project. Overall we were very happy with the new build, as we believe the design and colours contrast well with the surrounding buildings.

Achilles Building Confidence is one of the most in depth construction accreditation standards available; and Sage BEC is qualified to level 5 – the highest level of competence available. The service is designed to meet the increasingly demanding legislative and risk management requirements of construction clients.

This scheme is developed in line with best practice across the industry, something which Sage BEC are dedicated towards
Sage BEC takes responsibility for the greenhouse gases we cannot avoid emitting by using the Climatecare offset calculator to determine how many tonnes of CO2 we produce in our trading year. To achieve Carbon Neutral status we pay Climatecare to reduce the equivalent amount of CO2 in another part of the world by investing that money into emission reduction projects replacing fuel hungry inefficient technologies with efficient low-carbon technologies in developing countries. Take a look at the Climatecare website to see the advances being made; from the simple provision of efficient cooking stoves to full blown wind and hydro power schemes.
