New Stair Nosing Profiles: Wide Q-Range Stair Nosing
The experts at Quantum Flooring Solutionsare constantly looking for ways to improve the functionality of
its specialist products and, following an extensive programme of research and development, they’ve now hit
upon a unique design which will considerably improve user safety on the nation’s staircases. Unlike
conventional stair nosings which are manufactured with two separate pieces of narrow tread, Quantum’s brand
new concept features a single expansive layer of slip-resistant PVC across the entire upper surface of the carrier,
crucially creating a greater area of grip than any other product available. This new Wide-Tread addition to
the top-selling Aluminium Q-Range is perfect for installation in all types of public and commercial buildings,
and is especially suitable for high footfall locations including schools and hospitals. It is also fully Equality
Act compliant; its exclusive broader design and choice of 25 distinctive tread colours help to generate a far
more obtrusive ladder effect on the staircase, maximising visibility and security. A free site survey and measuring
service will prove just how cost-effective this industry-first, new product development can be for your projects.

The Pool House, Warwickshire
Kerakollproducts were used throughout for the installation of the
porcelain, marble and limestone tiles and bathrooms in this modern
house on a beautiful site overlooked by Oversley Castle. Barry
Montacute, the Contracts Manager at Tile & Flooring commented: “We
now specify Kerakoll products for all of our projects. We are very
impressed with the performance and the green credentials of the product
range. Kerakoll [is] always available for advice with all of our projects
and I personally value this service.” All wet areas were waterproofed
using the Laminate No Crack Waterproofing system for the floors which
uses Biogel adhesives to form laminated bonds between both the
substrate and the Aquastop Green membrane and between the membrane
and the tile covering. Nanodefense Eco was used to waterproof the
shower walls before tiling. The choice of adhesive and grout depended
on location and the need for speed dictated by access for other trade:
Biogel No Limits and Revolution were both used alongside Fugalite Bio
and Fugabella Eco Flex. The overall result is extremely impressive.

Fresh water from FONTAS-S II filter tap
One of the impressive innovations in BLANCO’snew
Smart Tap Collection is the BLANCO FONTAS-S II
Filter. An integrated BWT multi-stage filter purifies
the water, reduces limescale and heavy metal content
and, thus, enhances the taste. BLANCO filter systems
provide three options – warm, cold and filtered cold
water – in this multi-functional tap. The BLANCO FONTAS-S II Filter
is notable for its pull-out spout. This spout allows flexible use around
the sink, making it easy to fill household appliances. It is unique to the
market because of its separate nozzles and two pipes within the spout –
keeping the filtered water perfectly pure from the first drop to the last.
