A


new Home Bargains store at Prescot
Parkway, Merseyside, opened its doors
to customers this Spring. (2017). The
2415 m² (25,973 ft²) store is located just off
the Manchester Road, near the M57. It
features a wider range of goods such as health,
beauty and household items including a
698 m² (7,500 ft²) garden centre. The store’s
131 space car park is drained by some 151
metres of RECYFIX® MONOTEC, Hauraton’s
high capacity channel drainage system.
Hauraton Limited introduced the RECYFIX
MONOTEC, system in January 2016.The new
Home Bargains store joins the numerous
installations successfully completed in the
United Kingdom.
Two MONOTEC sizes were installed in the
Home Bargains car park’s red block surface
both channel sizes having a nominal grating
width of 100mm. The larger channel has an
overall height of 380mm and provides a cross-
section of 355.5cm^2. The smaller channel has
an overall height of 230mm and provides a

cross-section of 190.5cm^2. The 151 metres of
channel installed has a total water capacity of
just over 5078 litres.
All RECYFIX MONOTEC one metre long
channel component is of a sturdy monolithic
design where the HEELSAFE grating and the
tongue and groove linking system are integral
to the channel moulding. The whole unit is
made of tough, virtually unbreakable
polypropylene (PP) formulated to be very
resistant to daily temperature fluctuations
from frost conditions to strong sunlight,
including the Ultra Violet (UV) spectrum. PP is
naturally resistant to de-icing salt. Complying
with the requirements of EN 1433, the PP is
given its UV resistance by adding just sufficient
stabiliser so that the structural strength of the
material is unaffected and a consistent
appearance is maintained. The MONOTEC
channels have a loading category of up to
Class D400.
In addition to the car park drainage, two
sizes, 100 and 200, of the company’s

RECYFIX®PLUS channels were also installed
in the service yard against the retaining wall,
the 105 metres of channel being supplied with
HEELSAFE ductile iron gratings for a D400
loading category.
Ian Burton, Hauraton‘s Project Manager for
the North West comments; “With a maximum
weight of 10.4kg per channel, John Rogers of
William Tarr and Co Limited, the groundwork
contractor, was particularly impressed with the
easy handling of the MONOTEC channels and
how robust the product was with no breakages
reported during the installation process.
Matching Trash Boxes and End Caps were also
supplied. All Hauraton surface water drainage
systems’ comply with European Standards
(hENs) and carries the CE mark”.

Gerflor have ‘Eureka’ moment!
A recent refurbishment by Eureka! The
National Children’s Museum in Halifax,
West Yorkshire was instigated to redevelop
their retail visitor area to expand its offer for
visitors. It was an expansion plan that would
require 400m² of high-quality flooring from
international flooring specialist Gerflor. The finished project produced
an environment truly fit for purpose and would see 300m² of Gerflor’s
Taralay Impression Control vinyl safety flooring installed in the cafe
and shop areas, together with a further 100m² of their Tarasafe™
Super for the on-site kitchen facility which services the cafe.

Forbo sets the bar for restaurant design
The natural aesthetics, durable
performance and extensive colour
palette of Forbo Flooring Systems’
Allura Wood luxury vinyl tiles (LVT)
collection have all played a significant
role in creating a contemporary, stand-
out environment for Evoo, a new
‘barzzeria’ in Barnsley, Yorkshire. Allura Wood LVT benefits from
advanced production technology to ensure maximum dimensional
stability and high scratch and stain resistance, so that the appearance
of the floor remains as good as the day it was installed.

Secure access for jewellery boutique
Boodles, the top-end jewellery store, recently contracted Warrior
Doors to develop an automatic entrance solution that would meet
their stringent demands for security while also providing a welcoming
shopfront. Manufactured entirely from stainless-steel, the bespoke
entrance consists of two individual automatic sliding doors, powered
by TORMAXiMotion 2302 operators, that work in tandem to create
an attractive entrance lobby. This ‘airlock’ solution is capable of
withstanding even the most determined security breach, combining
an impressive interlocking system with security glass certified to LPS
1270 1,2,3, to deliver a product that is secured up to LPS 1175 SR3.
The Swiss-designed TORMAX iMotion 2302 combines an
exceptional life span with assured reliability thanks to the unique,
high-torque motor that has been cleverly designed without any of the
elements that commonly wear out, such as gears and brushes.
