Surfasology International and Miers Construction Products sign distribution deal for BBA approved CEMflex Plate Waterstop and UK launch

Construction professionals across the UK have started to hear more about this amazing and very efficient novel waterstop system that provides total reliability for non-movement joints in concrete. Those that haven’t already seen it or read about it soon will.

Adding to that; Tim Nicholson, MD, for Miers Construction Products went on to say: “When Surfasology International first approached us, I have to say like many in the industry, I wondered whether any improvement in current waterstop technology was possible. After seeing it and understanding how it worked we were converted! It really is like nothing we had seen or supplied to our customers before. It really does mark a real technical breakthrough in thinking. When this technology is coupled with the vastly reduced risk of incorrect fitting and the huge reductions in labour cost and fitting times that we could see, we felt that it was a product that we could take on. Miers has a reputation for bringing innovation to the market, and whilst many construction professionals can be initially sceptical about new technologies – seeing really is believing – we think that CEMflex has a great future here in the UK. It’s been phenomenally successful across Europe and particularly in Germany where it is manufactured to the highest standards, and used across major infrastructure projects. The German quality and engineering expertise that Surfasology put behind the product really convinced us. We look forward to talking with old and new customers alike about this product and particularly specifiers who will soon be hearing a lot more about its simple and reliable application. As a taster; the fact that it’s approved for use at up 5bar water pressure and is both BBA approved and safe for use in concrete construction with drinking water is sure to impress many. We look forward to expanding our ‘Innovative structural waterproofing portfolio’ with the help of Surfasology International and as a business, we are very excited about the coming year and the new technologies we will be marketing together” Eddie Grace, MD of Surfasology International added; “We are delighted to be working with Miers. We were keen to talk with them when we started establishing our UK arm mid-2014. Miers are the kind of added value distributor who value the quality of their relationships with suppliers as much as they do their customers. That fitted perfectly with our philosophy too. We care about the end user of our products and Miers know we are there to help their customers with full technical support as and when required. Our successful experiences in Europe with CEMflex means the time is right to bring it to the UK. In Miers we have a great partner with shared values. We look forward to developing a portfolio of linked and innovative active waterproofing solutions over the coming years”.
