Education - Refurbishment

Education buildings are responsible for sizeable amounts of wasted energy and carbon emissions. Many of these buildings were constructed in times when sustainability and carbon footprints were not considered to be issues.

Hanson Structherm’s experience within the education refurbishment market means we are thoroughly familiar with the problems likely to be encountered in old and failing schools and gives us a unique position within this sector to drive through real changes for pupils, staff and the environment even when times are tough.

While the government has ditched the Building Schools For The Future programme, many schools continue to leak warm air through poorly insulated walls. This not only costs thousands of pounds in wasted fuel but massively adds to the schools carbon footprint.

The external refurbishment of existing schools in an economic climate of spending cuts is a real alternative when building from new is no longer an option.

Hanson Structherm provide a fully integrated external refurbishment solution to schools built using non-traditional methods such as Hills, SCOLA, Vic Hallam and CLASP systems. The result being a watertight and thermally efficient building envelope with significantly reduced carbon emissions due to improved thermal efficiency, but more importantly a huge saving in a schools annual fuel bill.

Our refurbishment systems offer a range of flexible solutions that conform to current regulations and energy standards:

• Structural Insulated Cladding – for defective system built schools
• External Wall Insulation (EWI) – for stable but thermally inefficient schools
• Fastbrick – a robust EWI system for areas prone to high levels of usage
• Renders & Finishes – a wide choice of colours and textures to transform tired facades
