Project name: University of York
Product: Natura
Sector: Education
Location: York
Architect: Building Design Partnership (BDP)

Overview:
The University of York's flagship £66 million Heslington East campus development has benefited from using Marley Eternit's fibre cement Natura rainscreen cladding.

The architect, Building Design Partnership (BDP), specified Natura with the Pro coating because it met all the aesthetic and durability requirements set out by the client.

Fibre cement has one of the lowest levels of embodied energy of any cladding material and the Heslington East campus aims to achieve a BREEAM ‘Very Good’ rating.
