Maximise property value by releasing valuable floorspace by using a thinner profile, single layer partition system
Achieve outstanding acoustic performance and provide high levels of fire protection
Deal with high humidity areas
Protect high traffic areas
Enhance aesthetics

SUPPORTING YOUR PROJECT

For larger projects, we add value before, during and after the construction phase. Working with the project team, we can support the initial tender, finding ways to improve aesthetics or building performance, cut construction costs, reduce build times or suggest ways to lower on-going maintenance costs.

University of Bath

The University of Bath is investing over £200m in a five-year programme to further improve the world-class facilities it offers on campus. Alongside a new teaching space and centre for the arts, the University developed a new, state-of-the-art student accommodation complex. The design brief was to create 708 en-suite bedrooms across five buildings also featuring communal kitchens, lounges and refectory area, whilst also achieving fire and sound rating criteria throughout the site. Siniat worked with architects, Stride Treglown, design build contractor Laing O’Rourke and sub-contractor BR Hodgson. The build coincided with some very challenging weather conditions, so the water resistant qualities of GTEC Weather Defence certainly helped on site.
