Lightweight construction specialist Empower Construction recommends Hebel
PowerFloor as a high performance alternative to concrete slabs in subflooring
applications.
A perfect example of how lightweight materials can add value to
residential homes, Hebel PowerFloor is a solid, non-loadbearing subflooring
that is similar to concrete in look and feel but comes at a significantly lower
cost.
Hebel PowerFloor delivers several benefits to the homeowner and is preferred
over traditional flooring materials such as concrete for reasons such as reduced
costs and faster construction (up to 50%); greater insulation benefits,
requiring less heating and cooling; high fire resistance for peace of mind; superior
acoustics with reduced footfall noise and sound transfer between floors; and an
excellent base for ceramic tiles, carpet or polished timber boards.
Combining strength, thermal and acoustic insulation properties, Hebel PowerFloor
is the ideal choice for first floors and suspended ground floors as well as
decks and balconies.
Empower recommends PowerFloor to residential builders looking to try lightweight
materials in construction. Empower’s Managing Director Ryan Steyn observes that
once builders experience the speed of installation and costs savings of Hebel
PowerFloor, plus all the benefits they can on-sell to their clients, it opens
their eyes to the possibilities of lightweight construction.
As a lightweight construction specialist, Empower provides impartial
advice and customised solutions to clients to help them save time and money.
Their services encompass wall systems, flooring, fencing and coating, with the
advice on the right materials tailored to each project’s specific requirements.
