News
Ward Insulated Panels has supplied an insulated roof deck that helped to meet tight deadlines on the Anchor Point residential development in Sheffield. Advanced Roofing Ltd installed Topdek supplied with an integral Trocal membrane to the popular city centre development of 188 contemporary apartments.

Topdek is a factory pre-engineered single fix roof deck that facilitates faster on-site assembly. It comprises a high-performance single-ply PVC outer membrane integrally bonded to a FIREsafe PIR insulation core approved to Loss Protection Certification Board (LPBC) standards with zero Ozone Depletion Potential (zero ODP) and a steel trapezoidal profile inner deck.

Richard Clapp, operations director for Advanced Roofing Ltd said: “We have been using Topdek for a long time and it is always the product we recommend to our clients. It is a really efficient product to use because it takes very little time to install. We always work to tight deadlines and, with large projects like Anchor Point, it’s vital that we keep to our schedules. Topdek allows us to do this as it is both easy and quick to fit and makes the whole project run smoothly.”

Mark Brookes, associate director of the developer, Magellan Residential said: “Anchor Point is a contemporary development comprising of one and two-bedroom apartments, four-bedroom townhouses, and prestigious offices. Each home is well planned and reflects today’s appeal for ‘contemporary urban’ living.

“We had a big demand for the apartments at Anchor Point and with such a high level of interest it was important that every aspect of the development ran smoothly and we completed the project within the deadlines.” As one of the leading producers of insulated roof and wall panels, Ward prides itself in being a market leader when it comes to new and innovative products. Topdek provides excellent thermal performance, insulation continuity and airtightness, which can contribute to lower energy usage and Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions over the building’s lifetime.
