RTU has supplied a number of the materials from both its core and signature ranges for use in the development of the highly anticipated Newtownabbey Crematorium.
RTU supplied Ready Mixed Concrete, Building Mortar, Plaster, Traditional Screed, Liquid Screeds (Ultraflo® and Ultracem®) and Exposa® in Amber Beach for the building and grounds of the new state-of-the-art facility.
Commenting on the development, RTU said: "A thoughtful use of materials enables this building to fit seamlessly into its rural surroundings with materials that exude a modern yet rustic comfort. Exposa® carries this aesthetic outdoors and is used extensively for pathways, walkways and designated seating areas that provide a connection with nature and areas for reflection.
"Excellent performance is essential for any installation, especially within public facilities. Exposa® is manufactured to withstand heavy foot traffic, vehicular traffic, and even harsh environmental conditions while maintaining its structural integrity. With its durability, you can be sure our decorative concrete will last for years to come."
