Reaction coatings are fire-stopping and fire-sealing products which, when exposed to high temperatures in case of fire, start reacting creating a thermally insulating effect which increases the resist

Intumescent products are fire-stopping and fire-sealing products which foam up or expands permanently when exposed to high temperatures which creates a fire-sealing effect. The expanded product seals

Ablation coatings are fire-stopping and fire-sealing products which are activated when exposed to high temperatures due to their chemical compositions. Chemical and/or physical reactions are triggered

Masonry mortar or bonding agents serve to produce masonry from masonry units. In most cases, masonry mortars are covered by EN 998-2. Masonry

Masonry wall elements are room-height and predominantly room-width prefabricated elements (including parapets and gables). The individual masonry wall elements are manufactured at the factory from mas

Masonry is made from masonry units bound by mortar or other bonding agents and possibly other accessories. Different techniques are used to produce masonry for different application areas. In many cas

Glass fibre reinforced plastic (GFRP) rebars are one example of non-metallic rebars. They are serrated to ensure sufficient bonding with the concrete. Reinforcements made of glass fibre reinforced pla

Decorative wall coverings in roll or panel form are primarily applied to interior walls, partitions or ceilings for decorative purposes. They can be made of a variety of materials (e.g. vinyl, foamed

Coatings for resilient floor coverings can consist of several layers and/or products and be one-, two- or multi-component systems. Polyacrylates, polyurethanes, epoxy and alkyd resins and others are u

Wood floor coatings can consist of several layers and/or products and be one-, two- or multi-component systems. Polyacrylates, polyurethanes, epoxides, alkyd resins, curing oils, waxes and others are

With wood flooring, the floor covering is made of wood. Various designs are possible for parquets . In general, wood elements are arranged in specific patterns. Variants range from solid parquets to m

Floor coatings are applied to load-bearing substrates. Such coatings – for example, based on synthetic resin – can be used immediately after curing. They can be made up of multiple layers and differen

Resilient, textile and laminate floor coverings are covered by EN 14041:2004/AC:2006 and include, amongst others: Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and rubber floor coverings: This type of floor covering usual

Other concrete construction techniques include, e.g., knife-edge bearings and ring beams. A knife-edge bearing is used to introduce vertical and horizontal forces into sheet piling profiles and steel

Universal adhesives are used across large surface areas to bond floor coverings to the substrate. They can consist of one or two components. Acrylate dispersions, epoxides, polyurethanes, silane-modif

Prestressing steel bars are used in various prestressing systems for concrete structures. Prestressing steel bars are manufactured in hot rolling mills (by quenching, cold-drawing or additional temper

Prestressing steel strands are used for prestressing structures. A prestressing steel strand is made from a number of wires twisted together in the same direction and with the same lay length. The str

Prestressing steel wire is used for prestressing concrete structures. Prestressing steel wire is made of wire rod which is either manufactured by cold-forming and subjected to a finishing thermo-mecha

Membranes for use as roof or wall underlay are installed underneath the roofing of pitched roofs or underneath the external wall cladding. They serve as an additional rainproofing measure to prevent t

Flexible sheets for concrete waterproofing are used as an additional waterproofing measure for waterproof concrete systems. For this, the flexible sheet is inserted into the formwork prior to concreti

Joint sealing tape is used to seal joints between windows and facades or facade joints for protection against wind and driving rain. It is usually compressible to compensate for temperature-induced fa

Liquid applied roof waterproofing kits are usually multi-component systems and are applied in liquid form in multiple layers. After curing, they form the roof waterproofing. Waterproofing of buildings

Waterproofing slurries are used for waterproofing of buildings. Differentiation is made between mineral-based waterproofing slurries (rigid or flexible) and polymer-modified thick coatings. In additio

Drainage systems serve to drain rainwater or surface water from buildings in a defined manner. They are used below roof vegetation or are installed below ground around structures. There are linear and

Bridge deck waterproofing protects the bridge structure and/or any components or structures underneath it from water ingress. Bridge deck waterproofing usually consists of multiple layers, such as a p
