The Tayfen Court project involves the installation of 513 UNipanelLB panels for external walls, 397 UNiwallLB panels for internal compartmentalisation, and the UNifloor system, all integrated to form UNisystemLB.
This project marks the first deployment of the UNisystemLB, designed for buildings up to six storeys with a maximum finished floor height of 18 metres. UNisystemLB is a loadbearing structurally self-supporting system comprising UNipanelLB external wall panels and UNiwallLB internal compartmentalisation walls.
UNisystemLB panels, ready installed with head shutters, windows, and doors tailored to Weston Homes' specifications, forming the backbone of Tayfen Court. The panels come complete with internal and external insulation and brick tie channels, ensuring airtightness, thermal efficiency, acoustic performance and fire safety.
The complete programme spans just 13 months, as opposed to 18-months for traditional brick and block build from breaking ground, with the installation rate at an average 15 panels per day. The first panel was installed on-site on 1st August, with topping out scheduled to begin on 22nd October. The initial completions are expected in March 2025.
British Offsite is also supplying 225 prefabricated bathrooms, 146 wardrobe systems and 146 quartz kitchen worktops.
British Offsite managing director Shaun Weston said: "We are thrilled that UNisystemLB panels are being delivered and installed on-site in Bury St Edmunds. Tayfen Court showcases the potential of our UNisystemLB technology in delivering high-quality, energy-efficient homes swiftly and reliably. Our product is fast, flexible, reliable and competitive, making it an ideal solution for modern construction needs. This partnership exemplifies our commitment to innovation and excellence in offsite construction."
