Chris Jones, managing director at Hazlin, believed the company are now set to match their competitors by providing doors in a variety of sizes and configurations, decorative veneers, laminates or protective PVC sheeting.
He said: "Our new radiation doors will carry two layers of lead which prevents any discernable radioactive leakage and ensures performance is not compromised through the fitting of locks and other ironmongery.
The acoustic door disseminates harmonious frequencies up to 47 Decibels through a unique layer of materials and both are fire rated from FD30 to FD60 depending on the thickness.
Their high performance is enhanced by the use of hot melt polyurethane adhesive which once cured does not deteriorate.
In addition, the Torwegge is a quicker machine cutting production time by 75%, which means we can offer customers a shorter lead time from order to final delivery." * About Hazlin - established in 1974 Hazlin manufacture a range of doors that are fire, acoustic and radiation resistant, and include a variety of vision panels, veneers, joinery and finishes.
