Leading construction fastening solutions manufacturer EJOT UK has strengthened its support for architects, engineers and specifiers by partnering with NBS Source, further improving online access to the digital information on its core anchoring and flat roofing products.

EJOT’s decision to become an NBS Source Partner has been driven by the growing pace of digital transformation within the construction sector, coupled with the strategic and objective evolution of the platform in recent years. These factors make NBS Source increasingly well-positioned and ready for an extensive portion of the EJOT product portfolio, with the potential to play a key role in the company’s broader strategy to support increased digitalisation in the building design and specification process.

It adds a further dimension to how the company provides access to its library of products, many of which are already supported by detailed technical datasheets, installation guidance and third party certification such as European Technical Assessments (ETAs), as well as certification from internationally recognised bodies including FM Approvals.

Within the EJOT product range now available on the NBS Source platform are the majority of its concrete screws, through-bolts, resin anchors and heavy-duty mechanical anchors. These include its LIEBIG Safety Bolt and Superplus BLS anchors, which are renowned globally due to their excellent performance characteristics and modular design that overcomes many of the common challenges associated with post-install anchoring in concrete and hard base materials.

Several of EJOT’s most specified flat roofing fastening solutions are also listed on the platform. These include the EJOT HTK 2G tube-washer with TKR fastener combination, an FM Approved thermally-broken fixing for roof membranes and insulating materials to steel and timber substructures, and the EJOT JBS-R and EcoTek adjustable tube-washer combination for fixing tapered insulation to concrete roof decks.

EJOT’s fastening systems and products are regularly deployed in safety critical applications where accurate information, certification and test data has always been vital to inform and support decisions at the specification stage. However, these information requirements are now becoming the norm for all types of projects to comply with new processes and legislation driven by the Building Safety Act, particularly for the golden thread of information.

James Uttley, EJOT UK’s Technical Support Engineer, commented: “We are excited to be partnering with NBS for the first time and be part of what is a nationally and internationally respected platform for building product information.

“By listing our core anchoring and flat roofing fastening solutions on NBS Source, architects and designers can benefit from easier access to a range of industry-leading products to incorporate into specifications for both new build and refurbishment projects.

“But it is not only about accessibility of product information, it is about the accuracy, detail and quality of that information in a digital format. The Building Safety Act has led to the implementation of new construction processes that demand more detail than ever before on every aspect of a building’s specification in an effort to maximise supply chain transparency.
“Hence why NBS Source is so valuable as a resource that specifiers can depend on to obtain credible and trustworthy information as they seek to reduce the risk of costly errors and delays further down the line.”

Jack Mowat, Account Manager at NBS Source added: “We’re pleased to welcome EJOT’s fastening products to NBS Source. Their expanded presence on the platform provides specifiers with clearer, more detailed technical information to support accurate and well-informed specifications. Increasing the depth of product data available benefits both EJOT and the wider NBS user community as they compare options and make informed decisions.”

NBS Source is a cloud-based digital platform which provides a comprehensive and structured library of construction product information, allowing architects, specifiers, and manufacturers to find, compare and integrate product data into their projects. As a single, centralised source of information for all types of projects, users can search for and select products based on detailed technical data, performance criteria and compliance documentation to arrive at robust specifications that are crucial for improving quality, sustainability and safety in the built environment.
