Description:<\/h3>

The redevelopment of The Westbury Hotel in London involved significant challenges in balancing heritage preservation with modern upgrades. The facade required careful refurbishment, including removing existing cladding down to the metal supports, installing a new facade, and custom-built ceilings, while maintaining structural stability and aesthetic appeal. The building’s dramatic triangular atrium demanded complex engineering solutions, including raking columns, intricate floor-beam connections, and large transfer structures to support the upper levels. As a protected structure, the project had to comply with strict heritage guidelines and planning requirements, addressing concerns such as vibration, noise, and dust control to minimize disruption. Despite these challenges, the project successfully integrated modern systems and high-performance materials while preserving the hotel’s historic character.<\/p>

To meet strict fire, moisture, and durability requirements, Effisus provided tailored building envelope solutions, combining technical innovation with practical application methods developed specifically for this project:<\/p>

Solutions & Technical Details:<\/h3>
  • Effisus Vapour FR<\/strong> applied on the interior for airtightness, vapor control, and fire safety compliance.<\/li>
  • Effisus Breather FR<\/strong> applied on the exterior to protect against weather while allowing controlled vapor diffusion.<\/li>
  • Effisus 2Bond DS<\/strong> to ensure secure fixing and sealing of membranes without mechanical fixing.<\/li>
  • Effisus 2Adjoin TI<\/strong> to seal overlaps and around penetrations on Effisus Breather FR UV System<\/li><\/ul>

    Custom application methods were developed to accommodate multiple product types across different facade zones, overcoming challenges such as revised design packages after tender and providing guidance to designers with limited experience on large-scale projects.<\/p>

    Our Added Value:<\/h3>

    Effisus delivered a fully coordinated, compliant solution covering both interior and exterior envelope protection, ensuring strict adherence to fire performance and all project requirements. The team provided close collaboration with main and facade contractors, including on-site support and comprehensive technical documentation. Their adaptability and integrated approach ensured the project’s success despite complex installation conditions.<\/p>

    Client Testimonial:<\/h3>

Despite this, Effisus made the installation very easy, the products were robust, and the team provided rapid on-site support whenever needed. The team resolved all questions within days, and the reports were always client ready. From start to finish, Effisus delivered exceptional guidance, technical expertise, and reliability.
