Catnic Launches CAD Database
Catnic has launched its most recent Fastrack CAD Database on CD-ROM aimed at assisting architects and specifiers in the creation or modification of project documentation.
The two categories Catnic is sponsoring are the Best Private Housing Development and the Best Craftmanship Awards.
Competition is likely to be fierce as the brick awards are unique in recognising brick excellence and the importance of improving standards across the whole brick sector.
John Pryer, marketing director at Catnic, comments; "We have chosen to sponsor this year's Brick Awards as its principles of recognising good practice, management and design are closely aligned to our own".
"We are also acutely aware of the issues being faced by the industry, especially in areas such as skills shortages and health and safety, and believe that high quality, accurate brickwork is of paramount importance".
The innovative Catnic Brikmat is a fast and accurate bricklaying system designed to help both skilled and unskilled bricklayers construct brickwork to a consistent course height, without the need to check gauge and level at every course.
Accomplishing high accolades itself, Brikmat has achieved BBA certification following extensive trials on a broad range of sites.
The brick spacing system helps even out brick intolerances, alternating between the two spacing sizes as necessary, significantly reducing the time needed to inspect and re-work.
As with all Catnic products, Brikmat is fully supported by the company's dedicated technical and sales team.
Catnic has enjoyed a reputation for superior quality products and technical expertise, backed by excellent customer service for more than 30 years.
