BP Silverwater

The Challenges

The refurbishment of the BP in Silverwater, NSW, was constructed through local architect, Arrowfield, with building conducted by Clifford Construction P/L. The new service station begun in November 2016, with a completion date of June 2017, with a total project size of 1,300sqm. The client was seeking a roofing product that was not only stylish and sleek, but was time efficient to install, and held the ability to stand the harsh Australian Climate. This called for Bondor’s® 250mm SolarSpan insulated roofing product to be the chosen for the project.

The Solution

The project manager at Clifford Constructions P/L said they used Bondor’s products after Arrowfield architects had carefully selected SolarSpan for the job. “This was our first time using Bondor’s SolarSpan and we were pleased with the outcome. Its design intent was for exposed ceilings, providing a warehouse-style look, which complemented the polished concrete floors. As the roof material was a pre-finished product on the underside, this eliminated the need for internal ceilings to be installed.”

World-First: Secure End Lap Insulated PIR Roofing

The Challenges

Current sheet-to-sheet end-laps that are acceptable in other parts of the world have caused frustration and complications throughout Australia’s commercial roofing industry. These complications see leaking roof laps in several shopping complexes around Australia and are often very difficult to rectify. Confusion also exists around material warranties, who covers what and for how long.

The Solution

Australia is leading the world with Bondor’s new innovation in end lap protection with SecureLap by Bondor providing building occupants and roofing contractors with the assurance that their PIR insulated roof is sealed effectively from the harsh Australian conditions and high rainfall especially with ‘low pitch’ long spanning roof runs. SecureLap® is the answer to the “low cost focus”, driven by today’s market realities where a simplistic approach to connecting long panel roof runs over one purlin (rather than two with expansion steps), are required. Bondor developed SecureLap® as a unique lapping solution for local conditions. This was achieved through industry wide feedback and consultation, extensive in-house product development and rigorous weather testing to Australian Standards (conducted by CSIRO).
