Tooling

Expansion joints
Movement joints Screed joints Structural expansion joints Flexible rubber joints
Movement joints are installed in order to allow compensation of movements occurring in larger areas of hard floor coverings (ceramic tiles, marble). Expansion joints profiles are used to cover the opening built within the structure of larger buildings in order to absorb movement of the structure. These joints have to cope with different types of loads: light, medium, heavy and wide movements. We therefore propose a wide range of profiles with extended combination possibilities.

Classification via

Type of use
Light and medium duty
Place of use: schools, office buildings, hospitals, public buildings Type of traffic: pedestrian, trolleys, wheeled carts This range includes: - screed and movement joints: these rigid and compressible profiles are used to divide screeds, tiled floors (ceramic tiles, marble, stone floor) - expansion joints to be installed on all locations throughout the building where the structural architectural joint runs: floor/floor, floor/wall, wall/wall, ceiling.

Heavy duty
Place of use: shopping malls, train stations, airports, car parks Type of traffic: cars, vans, forklifts, trucks.

Wide movements
Place of use: all places where a wide architectural movement joint has been designed, seismic movement areas. Type of traffic: any heavy load.
