HUNTER DOUGLAS TOPLINE CEILING CHOSEN
FOR SOUTHBANK PLACE DEVELOPMENT
A Hunter Douglas Architectural ceiling system that combines an attractive finish
with superior acoustic comfort has been installed at a landmark London o ice
and residential development.
Southbank Place, a joint project between Qatari Diar and Canary Wharf Group,
is one of the capital’s most high profile developments and will comprise more
than 800 new homes, 48,000 sq of shops, restaurants and bars, and 530,000 sq
of o ice space when completed.
Hunter Douglas Architectural supplied 620m of Topline, a wood panel system,
for the main foyer of Two Southbank, a 407,008 sq , 15-storey o ice building.
The TLS 13/3 ceiling system comprises a core of MDF engineered solid wood
(ESW) with a decorative finish of high quality real European oak veneer. A small
oval opening is achieved through a staggered single groove pattern while the
other side has a perforation design that enables sound energy to pass through,
helping to achieve superior acoustic absorption.
It also supplied 128mm x 2730mm panels with 50mm Rockwool and 0.2mm
Soundtex acoustic insulation, which results in 0.75 NRC.

FORBO: HELPING TO MAKE
SPACES COVID SECURE
Forbo Flooring Systems has launched an array of services, guidelines and new
products to assist specifiers, contractors and facility managers throughout these
challenging times to make spaces COVID secure.
With the whole world having to adjust their lives to remain safe and prevent
the spread of COVID-19, Forbo understands the concerns and complexities that
now exist as a result of this, including social distancing.
As such it has recently launched
a range of Coral Logo entrance
flooring mats, which have
been designed to encourage
social distancing and prevent
unnecessary slips.
In addition to this, Forbo has also
developed a new service for its
Tessera Layout and Outline carpet
tile collection and its resilient
sheet ranges. The service allows specifiers to choose carpet tiles that feature
directional arrows within the design, or have loose arrows cut into existing
resilient installations or resilient materials, to aid wayfinding and to help clearly
identify one-way systems within a building.
As well as arrows to aid wayfinding, Forbo has also launched a selection of
circles which are available in its new Allura LVT range. The circles, which can be
inlaid within a square tile format, will help to encourage people to remain two
metres apart – especially in queues!
Forbo’s website is also home to a variety of online tools, such as downloadable
literature and a room planner.
