THE EDUCATION SECTOR
When it comes to comes to being qualified to
deliver high performance fenestration solutions
for the education market, Senior Architectural
Systems’ recently extended PURe range of
aluminium windows and doors puts the company

Already a popular choice in the education sector
thanks to its robust construction and exceptional
thermal performance, Senior’s patented PURe range
now includes the new PURe Commercial Door – the
company’s largest and most flexible door system to
66 JUNE 2019
date. Ideally suited for use in medium to high tra ic
areas where frequent access is required, the new
PURe Commercial Door is available as a standard,
electronic-locking and panic-exit system and with a
wide variety of door stiles, allowing it to be specified
in a multitude of di erent configurations and design
options. Designed to perform up to a maximum
leaf size of 1400mm x 3000m and 180Kg, the robust
PURe Commercial door system can achieve U-Values
as low as 0.94 W/m2 K when calculated as a CEN
Standard door and is able to receive double or triple
glazing from 28-60mm for maximum thermal and
acoustic performance.
Senior also has a number of supply chain
agreements in place with key main contractors
working in the education sector. The company’s
extensive range of aluminium doors, windows and
curtain walling systems has been widely specified
for use on primary and secondary schools, colleges,
universities and student accommodation schemes
across the UK.
Senior’s thermally-e icient PURe windows in
particular have become a popular choice with
main contractor
Bowmer & Kirkland
(B&K). A er
being successfully
trialled by B&K in
2016, Senior’s innovative
window solution has now
gone on to be specified on over
30 projects as part of the company’s
delivery of the Education Funding
Agency (EFA)’s framework contracts.
Awarded a UK patent in 2016, the PURe system
is the first on the UK market to benefit from an
enhanced thermal barrier manufactured from
expanded polyurethane foam (PUR) and has the
potential to provide up to a 35% improvement
in U-values. Traditionally used in cladding and
insulation products, the innovative use of PUR
as a thermal barrier in windows and doors gives
the PURe range the potential to o er exceptional
thermal performance, with the aluminium window
achieving U-values as low as 0.71W/m2 K when
calculated as a commercial CEN standard window.

TESSERA CHROMA: A FUSION OF COLOUR
AND TEXTURE
Fusing together organic texture with chalkier
colours has led to the development of Forbo
Flooring Systems new contemporary, high-end
carpet tile collection: Tessera Chroma. The
carefully composed colourways, which o er a
colour balance when combined, allow you to
playfully clash shades to create more dynamic
and diverse workspaces.
Chroma is the quality by which we
communicate colour; it’s how we define
a colour’s purity, intensity or saturation. It
also provides a measure of how we can fuse
relationships between colours to bring balance
and harmony to a space and Forbo’s Tessera
Chroma collection has been created with this
in mind.
Jason Holmes, Head of Textile Design at Forbo Flooring Systems, commented:
“There is a new, more sophisticated trend emerging onto the workspace design
scene, where we see schemes morphing into leisure and hospitality inspired
spaces characterised by carefully curated colours and the introduction of iconic
accessories.”
Comprising 12 neutral and 15 bright colours, Tessera Chroma’s palette
has been selected to have a subtle blended e ect, thanks to each colourway
consisting of three di erent shades. This has helped to provide a warm aesthetic
and allow specifiers to create eclectic colour combinations that can bring out the
desired personality of spaces.
