SFS has launched a new 16-page guide designed to help specifiers, engineers, offsite manufacturers and contractors navigate the growing demands of Modern Methods of Construction (MMC).
The publication provides an overview of the company’s fastening, fixing and support solutions for a wide range of offsite and MMC applications, with a particular focus on helping projects achieve high standards of energy performance, fire safety, durability and buildability.
The guide covers product categories including metal, timber and concrete connections, fastening systems for roof and wall cladding, flat roofing, rainscreen support systems, internal flooring applications and ergonomic installation tools. It also highlights specialist solutions such as NVELOPE support systems for rainscreen façades and concealed fixing applications.
As the construction sector continues to adopt offsite manufacturing and MMC approaches, SFS says there is growing demand for tested and compliant solutions that address critical junctions and interfaces, where issues such as thermal bridging, fire performance and long-term structural integrity can have a significant impact on building performance.
Phil Chambers, Business Development Manager (MMC) at SFS, said: “We have proved ourselves to multiple clients in the sector by developing innovative solutions to challenges which result from changes to the Building Regulations, as well as practical problems presented by trying to improve productivity, safe working practices and long-term durability.
“Our solutions can tick all the boxes in terms of energy performance, the structural engineer’s requirements, and the needs of specialist sectors such as defence. Customers gain confidence from our experience and the ability to offer fully engineered and tested, unique products.”
Alongside product information, the brochure explains how SFS solutions can help eliminate pre-drilling requirements, improve fixing reliability and accommodate multiple material layers in both new-build and refurbishment projects. It also outlines the company’s digital design tools and technical support services, helping specifiers meet BIM and NBS requirements while supporting efficient project delivery.
The new MMC guide is available to download from SFS and is intended as a practical resource for construction professionals looking to optimise performance, productivity and compliance across offsite and modern construction projects.
