Best foot forward with anti-slip decking
A £140 million shopping and leisure park in
Northamptonshire has used Antislip Plus Smooth
decking from Marleyto provide a durable and
effective external anti-slip surface for visitors. The
timber decking boards are specifically designed
to provide a durable and effective external
anti-slip surface to minimise any risk of slipping – even in adverse
weather conditions. Marley’s Antislip Plus uses a unique formula of
resin-based aggregate inserts, which are injected into the deck board
grooves. For the smooth boards required by this project, grooves are
specially machined into the boards to receive the inserts.

Providing a quality sealing solution
Resiblock& South Tyneside have once
again combined to provide quality sealing
solutions in South Shields. Following
successful sealing works of Resiblock ‘22’
A.F in Ocean Road, South Tyneside realised that nothing could come
close to “The Worlds Favourite Paving Sealer” Resiblock, when
sealing works were specified for Sea Lane in South Shields. The
seafront location comprised of both Concrete Block Paving and
Concrete Slabs and therefore Resiblock ‘22’ A.F was the perfect
product due to its ability to seal and stabilise a variety of pavers, as
shown in the Ocean Road sealing works.

Shade sails installed at Woburn Forest
In spring 2018, Jeckellscompleted an
installation at Center Parcs Woburn
Forest to create three shade sails at
their Cycle Centre. A structural
engineer was involved to ensure
everything was strong enough and
the colours of the posts and sails
complemented the surrounding forest
environment. The installation was
such a success that Jeckells have now been commissioned by Center
Parcs to complete a similar project at Longleat Forest.

Seamless surfacing for pathways at park
Over 800m² of Addagrips Terrabase Classic Resin Bound
porous surfacing was installed to rejuvenate the pathways
in Battersea Park on the banks of the River Thames,
London. The requirement was for overlay of existing
pedestrian walkways with a smooth, low maintenance,
seamless finish in a colour similar to adjacent paths. A
special blend of aggregates was required, named ‘Battersea’. The natural
stone that helped create this bespoke resin bound colour was supplied
by Long Rake Sparand was installed with their Terrabase system as a
Terrabase Classic paving. Long Rake have a large offering of specialist
dried aggregate granules that are perfect for use in resin bound paving.
