The team at EOS are supporting prominent rainscreen and facade manufacturer, BTS Facades and Fabrications to bring an innovative and high-performance complete walling solution to market. Taking a safety-first approach, the pioneering Vantage® Secret Fix-Full System (SF-FS) is a complete through-wall system incorporating an external rainscreen facade and internally protected using their innovative Thruwall® system.
Steve Thompson, Managing Director of EOS said:
“Bringing our expertise in developing advanced steel framing solutions to the project team, the new Vantage® Secret Fix-Full System is protected by our ground-breaking Thruwall® system – developed in partnership with EOS and Etex.”
Partnership Approach
Developed by BTS in partnership with EOS, Etex, Siderise, DuPont, Knauf Insulation, SFS and Nvelope. Mark Wiper, BTS’ Technical Manager, said:
“Working collaboratively enables us to harness the collective intellect of industry-leading experts as well as deliver proven performance. This level of testing and collaboration gives clients confidence in our system knowledge and in our ability to bring projects to market.”
Testing and Accreditation
The Vantage® Secret Fix-Full System is believed to be the first in the UK to have successfully completed two large scale tests in accordance with the most recent BS8414-2:2020 standards. The Vantage® Secret Fix-Full System was recently tested by UKAS-accredited test laboratory Efectis UK and Ireland, and successfully conformed to all the stringent criteria for both internal and external spread of flame, as well as mechanical failure.
Compliance with BS8414-2:2020 provides not only technical credibility but importantly for designers and specifiers – certified assurance is now a pre-requisite for many tender opportunities, giving the new Vantage® Secret Fix-Full System a commercial advantage.
