The Phoenix Building, Swindon College, Swindon, UK

Swindon is situated alongside the M4 corridor, often described as the UK's 'silicone valley'. Hence, it is perhaps not surprising that such a place sees great merit in expanding local educational facilities to meet the growing need for trained technicians.

As part of this expansion, Swindon College has been provided with a new administrative building which also incorporates refectory and teaching facilities. The many benefits of the waterborne Firebreak product, such as speed of application; minimal thickness requirements and quality of finish, made it an easy choice for use to provide the specified structural fire resistance requirements.
