WHY SUPPORTING THE CEF AWARDS IS IMPORTANT TO RTU… A certain magic in the simple act of gathering in one place
I n an age where digital screens bridge the gaps between individuals and entire industries, there’s a certain magic in the simple act of gathering in one place. As sponsor of two categories in this year’s CEF Awards, RTU sees this event as an excellent chance to support our industry peers, advocate for our sector and engage with the wealth of expertise in the room. Much of RTU’s progress is proactive, driven by a commitment to extensive research and development, and attained through a dedicated focus on observing, listening and comprehending the specific needs and demands of the construction industry. We also recognise that progress and meeting expectations are the ability to address the multifaceted needs of our customers, their clients and the ultimate end-users of the buildings. RTU continues to focus on and develop Core and Signature Product Ranges to excel in our role as project partners. We look beyond the building to the experience delivered to the end-users while supporting sustainable practices and enabling design visions, and, at the same time, lowering energy costs and ensuring safety, performance and durability. RTU believes that only with
this multifaceted approach can we be authentic in providing places for people to connect, whether to work, live, meet or enjoy serendipitous interactions. The winners of the RTU-sponsored categories are prime examples of delivering on the values above. Felix O’Hare & Company won Best Commercial Construction Project for Queen’s University Belfast Student Centre, a hub for social interaction, collaboration, and relaxation, fostering a sense of community and belonging. Kelly Brothers won Best Social Housing Project for Moylinney, Newtownabbey, a scheme that has delivered safe, durable, and energy- efficient homes that enhance its residents’ overall living conditions and wellbeing. SIGNATURE PRODUCTS FROM RTU ULTRAFLO® HEMIHYDRATE LIQUID FLOOR SCREED Enjoy improved energy efficiency and lower running costs with underfloor heating. A key benefit of Ultraflo is minimal drying shrinkage compared to cement-based screeds. Minimal drying shrinkage reduces the risk of cracking and allows areas between movement joints to be dramatically increased.
ULTRACEM® Our Portland cement-based, pump- applied liquid floor screed excels due to its fast-track qualities and the speed and ease of installation over traditional sand/ cement screeds. Ultracem is a diverse product compatible with all standard floor coverings including tiles, wood, vinyl, carpet and wet areas.
ULTRABEAD® Our specially engineered thermal
lightweight screed improves the thermal performance of internal floors. Ultrabead is Kiwa and NHBC Accept accredited and is manufactured from a high-quality, factory-produced EPS bead that meets the BS EN 13163 standard criteria. ZIRCON® POLISHED CONCRETE This technically designed decorative concrete delivers a sleek polished floor that can be finished with various grades of polishing to achieve the desired look for your project.
