Pura makes facade specification easy with NBS Source

Pura Facades, part of the national Vivalda Group, has signed up to NBS Source, the trusted platform for specifiers. The move allows architects, designers, developers and contractors to obtain trusted, up to date information and data on the UK’s widest range of cladding materials including such as glass reinforced concrete (GRC), fibre cement, cement particle boards, terracotta, solid metal (aluminium) and composite infill panels – all from a single source.

NBS has a mission to “help the construction industry to build better with lower risk”. The digital platform provides connectivity between suppliers like Pura Facades and specifiers who value the comprehensive range of products available on the site. 

By allowing manufacturers to provide comprehensive information about their products on a free-to-use and easily accessible platform, NBS provides specifiers with a library of information, data and performance detail that removes ambiguity from their specification process.

Wes Hague, group commercial director at Vivalda Group, said: “Our adoption of the NBS platform is further proof of our move closer towards architects and contractors who are looking for proven, transparent and trusted façade partners able to help them through the often complex process of facade system specification.  With our longstanding association with brands such as MetSkin (solid aluminium) Reider (GRC), Tonality (terracotta), Viroc (cement bonded particle board) as well as Vivalda’s infill composite panel, we are ideally placed to provide specifiers with a ‘whole market’ view of rainscreen facades, also providing support and advice on associated products.”

Pura Facades is part of Vivalda Group, the UK’s largest supplier of façade systems. Operating from 11 location across the UK and Ireland, the company provides a total cut-to-size fabrication and just-in-time delivery service. The business not only supplies cladding panels, but also a complete range of ancillary products including fixings, framing, breather membranes, fire barriers and insulation.
