Heating buildings with renewable energy
Sustainability
Energy efficient, underfloor systems
Successful installation

The event was attended by 50 delegates from all over Ireland and was a resounding success.

Larsen MD Peter McGill said “we were delighted to have a full room with people travelling from Cork and Galway etc and it was a great opportunity to showcase best practice in the use of sustainable screeds in which we are leading the field. Our Flotherm screed is proving exceptionally popular in self build and social housing projects at present.”
