Since 2014, the Naked Flame company ethos has always been to supply products that are constructed from fully sustainable and traceable premium timber as well as using the most energy efficient, off-grid heaters for its tubs and saunas. Following business use advice requiring liner systems for tubs, Naked Flame will now only offer a fully recyclable Polystone liner system to complement its existing eco packages. Fibreglass and other non-recyclable options have been removed from sale as the company continues to promote all things green and sustainable.

Company owner, Gareth Edwards, explained: “We feel that this is extremely important for us as a company to be able to supply site owners wishing to promote their own eco site affiliations with a product that suits and can be advertised as such.”

Retrofit liner systems are also available for the older, solid wood Naked Flame tubs allowing owners to bring them up to date without the need to replace the whole tub.

Sustainability is at the front of many people’s minds and, in the context of foundations, minimising the use of concrete should be a priority. Ground screws are a high-quality alternative to concrete and perfect for structures such as pods, cabins, lodges, decking and shades, even in poor ground conditions and on slopes. Add in their re-usability, speed of installation, long lifespan and low impact on the soil environment you have a very effective, stable solution for your foundations.

They are installed quickly, without the vibration or mess normally associated with concrete footings.

Based in the Westcountry, FIRST BASE Ground Screws UK provides a friendly, professional, wraparound service, from initial advice and ground testing to package tailoring, project support and installation using a national network of installation partners.
