i-Jump is Mansfield’s popular trampoline park frequented by great numbers of ecstatic children and their accompanying guardians. When designing the interior, i-Jump needed to create a practical and easily managed space while still being fun. In order to achieve this, i-Jump has covered the walls using Norbord’s revered SterlingOSB Zero. It is the UK’s only manufactured OSB that doesn’t contain any added formaldehyde making this an ideal choice for somewhere like i-Jump. Stephi Grayson iJump’s Operations Manager has described the versatility of HexxHome was established to help serve the needs of a generation of people who do not want to purchase a home from a volume house builder; people who believe in sustainable construction and are prepared to devote the time and resources to find the right partner to help them design and build a better home. HexxHome was selected to build an exemplar new house on the Show Home complex at Graven Hill Village. Our three bedroom home has been designed by Charlie Luxton Design using the patented HexxHome build system. SterlingOSB Zero as one of its most unique features. With its high adrenaline atmosphere i-Jump has benefitted greatly from the use of a material that Stephi has described as “totally self sufficient and effective”.
Now that the decoration itself is completed Stephi, her colleagues and all their enthusiastic customers can simply enjoy the inviting appearance of the park without having to worry about degradation and upkeep.
