Unitex Base Board now awarded BRANZ accreditation

Unitex®, Australia’s first manufacturer of EIFS (External Insulating Finishing Systems), is proud to announce that they have been awarded BRANZ accreditation for the impressive Unitex Base Board Cavity System.

BRANZ Appraisals are independent and unbiased assessments of building products, materials and systems. Products are assessed for Building Code compliance and fitness for purpose. As well as evaluation and testing, BRANZ assesses and continually monitors technical literature, quality control, installation, service performance and maintenance. When it comes to providing third party accreditations for cladding systems, BRANZ is recognised as the leading authority by the Australian Building Codes Board (ABCB).

“I am thrilled that Unitex has been officially recognised as the leading quality manufacturer and supplier to the Australian building industry,” said Andrew Concannon, Managing Director.

Unitex has been manufacturing the highest quality, protective and decorative cladding systems for 28 years.

The world renowned EIFS system offers the ultimate external insulation in both heat and cold. By choosing the Unitex Base Board System for your project you are not only purchasing the highest quality products by the Australian market leader in the EIFS industry. You also receive a complete warranty (on the full system as specified), proven insulation properties and weather tightness - all backed up the southern hemisphere’s most rigorous authority in scrutinising cladding systems for weather protection - BRANZ.

Unitex customers can also be confident in the quality of manufacture, delivery to site, installation and technical support. While the home owner will enjoy the comfort of insulation, savings on future energy bills and the simply outstanding, low maintenance finish.

In 28 years of supplying Unitex Base Board for projects, Unitex have not had a single claim against their 7-year guarantee. With over 5 million square metres of external walls in Australian homes and commercial projects protected from this country’s harsh, seasonal weather conditions by Unitex, that’s reassuring indeed.
