April 18, 2013 - PRLog -- Russell Roof Tiles has secured a £750,000 contract to supply roofing solutions at the new £252 million Center Parcs holiday village - the largest leisure project in the UK today.

Russell Roof Tiles is the UK’s leading independent manufacturers of roof tiles and fittings. Its Grampian tiles and Russfast fixing system will feature on all 625 forest lodges at Center Parcs Woburn Forest (Bedfordshire) – the fifth holiday village, due to open in spring 2014.

This innovative fast track scheme will deliver two, three and four bedroom lodges. The timber frame panels are being constructed off-site, using sustainably sourced timber and all of the latest modern building materials before being assembled back on the 365 acre site.  All of the 625 new look timber framed lodges will feature traditional tiled roofs.  Russell Roof Tiles’ Grampian product which is being used combines the traditional appearance of slate tiles with the security of an interlocking design.  The project is being installed by leading specialist roofing contractor Steadfast Roofing with whom Russell Roof Tiles has a long standing relationship.

As well as the lodges, the site comprises a 75 bedroom hotel and spa with six associated spa suites and two leisure buildings including indoor sports facilities, subtropical swimming paradise, restaurants and retail outlets. The site will include outdoor sports and leisure facilities and a lake.

Andrew Hayward, Managing Director at Russell Roof Tiles commented; “We’re delighted to be involved in this project. Both quality and aesthetics are central to every Center Parcs village so it’s great that our products fit the bill.  Due to the fast track nature of the project speed of installation is key so an interlocking product is perfect.  Also on a scheme of this nature maintenance considerations are important which is why the maintenance free Russfast Dry Hip, Russfast Dry Ridge and the Dry Verge systems were selected.”          

Don Camilleri, Woburn Construction Director at Center Parcs said; “We are pleased to be working with Russell Roof Tiles, they care as much as we do about the quality and design of their products and we are excited to have them involved in this project. Lodge construction has already started and we look forward to seeing the lodges completed by January 2014 to be enjoyed by guests from spring 2014.”

Center Parcs welcomes 1.6 million visitors at its four villages each year, whilst managing to achieve carbon reduction. This new project fits with the Government’s target for green investment and reduction in carbon emissions. Center Parcs has said that Woburn Forest will be an “exemplary sustainable tourism destination”. It is investing in energy efficiency and renewable technologies, including a biomass-powered district heating system and solar panels, in order to meet its target of consuming 25% less energy than the average existing village.
