Darlington Railway Station, a key stop on the East Coast Main Line, is undergoing a major transformation aimed at improving capacity, accessibility and sustainability for decades to come. The redevelopment represents one of the most significant rail investments in the North East in recent years.

As part of the regeneration, ARBO® has supplied its high-performing ARBOSHIELD Pro® range of Class A membranes through MMR Fixings. The installation forms part of a specification that prioritises safety, durability and environmental responsibility, ensuring the new infrastructure meets the UK’s fire protection standards.

Details of the membranes can be found here:

ARBOSHIELD Pro® Class A W1 Breather Membrane
ARBOShield Pro Class A W1 Breather Membrane has a Class A2-s1, d0 reaction to fire and is a high-performance vapour permeable wall membrane with a low emissivity reflective surface.
