Novostrat – Building the Brand

At the beginning of 2008 it would be fair to say that most people would have said Novostrat –Who?
Although Novostrat was already the largest manufacturer of Polyethylene foam in Ireland, to their recent target sector, i.e wood and laminate floor underlays, they were positively embryonic. How things change. After a year of major brand building, Novostrat is right there, winner of the best Underlay 2008 at this year’s FloorStyle exhibition, sporting a range of 8 laminate floor underlays and two carpet underlays, and now with a network of distributors and retailers across Ireland and the UK, Novostrat is being recognised and respected.
Novostrat is building its brand on a series of distinct selling points which separate them from the competition. A low tog rating, which makes the range ideal for underfloor heating applications, a low physical weight, which makes them ideal for storage, carrying and installing, high acoustic insulation, with ‘Sonic Gold’ achieving a 0.22 dB rating….. but most of all, very competitive pricing for a very high performance product.
Novostrat underlays are made using polyethelyne foam with a variety of foil and membrane laminations – as such they are fully recyclable, they achieve a Class 0 fire rating and the manufacturing process neither produces nor uses any harmful HCFC’s, heavy metals, chlorides or bromides. These very green credentials are finding favour with Local Authorities and environmentally aware developers who are now insisting on ‘Green’ products.
Novostrat High Performance Underlays are not being sold directly to the consumer and interested distributors, merchants and retailers can make contact through the website http://www.novostrat-insulation.com/
