Actis invests in state-of-the-art machinery to handle huge growth in demand for Hybris
Actis has invested in a new Hybris plant in South West France.
Sales of Actis’ honeycomb insulation Hybris are growing at such a rate; the company has invested in a state-of-the-art machine which can produce the material four times faster than its predecessor. The 2,000 sq m plant has been built at the company’s headquarters in South West France and will cater to the growing number of British and European Actis enthusiasts.
Actis UK and Ireland sales director Mark Cooper said: “Our original Hybris machine was pretty impressive, and now the growth in its popularity means we have made a significant investment into a second-generation plant. Its increased manufacturing capacity will enable us to meet current and future demand.”
CE marked Hybris and its three sister products, insulating vapour control layer HControl Hybrid and insulating breather membranes, Boost R Hybrid and Boost R Hybrid Roof, have LABC and LABSS registered detail and are accepted by the LABC, Premier Guarantee and the NHBC when used in accordance with certification. They help eliminate thermal bridging due to their ability to squash into gaps and wrap around corners.
Mark added: “Architects, specifiers and builders choose Hybris because not only does it achieve impressive thermal performance, it is quick, clean and easy to use, produces very little waste and is light and easy to carry.”
