Here at STS we are very conscious that many of our products are used in both large commercial and domestic projects. Whether you’re constructing a shopping mall or refurbishing a house it is crucial that the products used comply with British Standards. More than ever there is an emphasis in the UK on using the right products to produce the right finish that is backed by leading test houses and associations. We work closely with many testing houses to ensure that our products are consistently manufactured to the highest standards and are fully compliant with the British Standards for all their applications including tile backing, external tile backing, wet room boarding, and other external uses such as sheathing board and render carrier.
Working with the TTA is of all importance to STS as they provide the needed guidance, assurance, and control to the tiling industry. We are pleased to announce that we have yet again renewed our Association with the TTA and will be working closely with them and other key, industry-leading test houses to ensure our NoMorePly and other related products are continually manufactured to this high standard.
If you want to see more information about what the TTA does, please head over to their website: www.tiles.org.uk where you can read of the many benefits they bring to the UK tiling industry.
One important change that was made to the British standards is that they have condemned the use of plywood as a suitable background material for wall tiles. STS has been producing fibre cement backing boards for nearly 20 years and has consistently worked with the tiling industry to ensure they are suitable for large, heavy porcelain, ceramic, and natural stone finishes. Our 12mm fibre cement boards will hold more than 100kg per m² and come in two unique sizes (1200×800 & 2400×1200) so whether your project is small or large we have your back covered.
If it’s strengthening the floor you are looking to do then check out our 6mm PrePrimed NoMorePly tile backing solution. This is ideal for overlaying onto an existing timber floor before tiling to ensure enough flex is taken out of the floor to avoid cracked tiles and grout lines.
