Progress: Abercromby Industrial Est

Significant progress has been made at the Abercromby Industrial Estate in High Wycombe, with major roofing upgrades underway across multiple units. The project aims to enhance the durability, insulation, and efficiency of the site’s structures, ensuring compliance with modern building regulations.

Units 3 & 4: Over-Roofing for Enhanced Protection

Work on Units 3 and 4 has involved the installation of a high-performance over-roofing system designed to improve insulation and longevity. The key components used in this phase include:

• Ash and Lacy AG40 System – a robust roofing solution offering enhanced durability.

• Knauf FactoryClad 40 Insulation – improving thermal efficiency and reducing heat loss.

• TATA LG Plastisol Coated Roof Sheets – providing a weather-resistant and aesthetically appealing finish.

Units 1A, 1C, & 2: Comprehensive Roof Replacement

A more extensive refurbishment is taking place on Units 1A, 1C, and 2, where the existing corrugated asbestos cement roof sheets and timber slates have been removed. The replacement work includes:

• New Galvanised Metal Purlins – ensuring a strong and long-lasting roof structure.

• Kingspan KS1000RW Composite Roof Sheets – installed to meet current building regulations for insulation and energy efficiency.

• Triple Skin Rooflights – designed to provide 12-15% natural daylight, enhancing workplace environments.

• Highline/Trimline Plastisol Gutters – improving water management and drainage efficiency.

• HDSharman Plygene Liners – offering additional protection against leaks and ensuring a longer-lasting guttering system.

Commitment to Quality and Compliance

The ongoing work at the Abercromby Industrial Estate reflects a commitment to high-quality construction and regulatory compliance. These upgrades not only modernise the facility but also improve sustainability by enhancing insulation and maximising natural light.

As the project progresses, further updates will be provided, ensuring stakeholders remain informed about the continued improvements at the site.
