Green Zone: Vinyl Composite Tile (VCT) Corrected with Quartz Tile Flooring Products

admin — Tue, 26 May 2009 19:22:37 +0000

Knight Quartz Flooring is generally regarded as the global leader in quartz flooring. In this video, watch Mike Baldwin talk about how his quartz flooring product solves the problems normally associated with vinyl composite tile (VCT).

All Knight Quartz Flooring products contain over 70% quartz particles thoroughly mixed into a flexible vinyl base. The final product is homogenous and contains no additional fillers. Instead, Knight Quartz Flooring utilizes very fine and naturally weathered quartz particles for reinforcement.

With a homogenous through-marbled composition, color and marbling are consistent and last for the life of the product. The high natural quartz content of Knight Quartz Flooring results in exceptional durability and wear resistance, contributing significantly to lifecycle and performance cost savings.

Possessing a high PSI strength, endless design possibilities, low moisture absorption rate and a significant cost-to-own savings, Knight Quartz Flooring outperforms the competition and is THE Resilient Flooring Solution.

Rooftop Grease Management - Avoid Roof Leaks and Expensive Repairs With Grease Containment System

admin — Tue, 26 May 2009 18:35:29 +0000

The patented Rooftop Defense Systems® from Grease Guard are so effective at containing grease and oils from rooftop exhaust systems, that Underwriters Laboratories Inc. has listed it for effectiveness and safety. This is the most oil absorbent, noncombustible, rainproof, structurally sound, closed, listed, grease containment system on the market today.

The Grease Guard and Drip Guard are comprised of a patented fiber filter system that absorbs and traps grease and oil, keeping them off the roof. The system begins with the grease deflecting flashing, which channels all contaminants discharged from the exhaust fan into the G2® Grease Guard® filter system. The contaminants and rainwater are captured in the porous top pre-filter and then dispersed toward the Advanced Filter Composite®.

The Advanced Filter Composite® consists of transfer, absorption and barrier filter layers. The transfer filter repels rainwater and harmful ultraviolet rays, while quickly transferring the contaminants to the absorption filter layers. The nearly fifty absorption layers trap and hold the contaminants within the G2® Grease Guard® system. The contaminants wick throughout the absorption layers and are prevented from exiting the system by a leak proof barrier layer. Under the Advanced Filter Composite® lies the bottom airflow filter, which allows air to circulate throughout the filter system.

The final component is a fire barrier layer, which is placed in the bottom of the G2® Grease Guard® system to protect the roof and building from any potential exhaust system fire hazards. The entire filter system fits within a 4″ high sturdy patented frame that is assembled around the exhaust fan and contaminated areas.

Invisible Modular Green Roof Systems Means Long Term Green Zone Sustainability

admin — Tue, 26 May 2009 04:38:25 +0000

Julie Ardner talks about LiveRoof, developed by career horticulturists for long term sustainability, and is the first and only invisible modular green roof system. Each LiveRoof® module arrives to the job site with full- grown plants inside the container and is simply set in place on the rooftop. The unique patent-pending Soil Elevators ™ are then removed for a seamless fit.

No need to start with a brown roof and farm it for years, waiting for it to become a green roof. Prevegetated modules discourage weeds and save the time and money traditionally required to develop and maintain a green roof grown from plugs, seeds or cuttings. Other systems may require three or more years for establishment and intensive care is needed during this time period. Well-established LiveRoof® plants and roots mean an instant green, successful, and instantly functional green roof.
