Cavity Trays of Yeovil is the longest-established cavity tray company and has a proven track record.
It was in the 1920’s that a West Country family of builders first started fabricating “damp courses and other devices to allay the fears of the unpredictable and volatile English climate”. Today the fourth generation of the same family continue the tradition. The terms ‘Cavity Tray’ and ‘Cavitray’ created by Eric Shillabeer, the founder of the limited company, have become part of everyday building language. With its operating centre still based in Yeovil, Somerset, Cavity Trays supplies internationally and its approved products are accompanied with a performance warranty for the benefit of architect, builder and client.
Preformed envelope protection includes fire barriers and reveal closers to compartmentise cavity wall construction.
The Type P Parapet Cavitray overcomes the structural deficiency suffered when a parapet is constructed with DPC built into both skins resulting in all upper masonry resting on a potential slip plane. The Type P is preformed and supports itself, leaving one outer skin structurally uninterrupted.
