Possible applications in building industry

Concrete Reinforcement

Durostone® FRP Rebar: New generation of fibre-reinforced composite reinforcement bars. Combine extremely high strengths with low weight and longer service life.

Composite fasteners

Durostone® fasteners are ideal for the thermal separation of building components - they can be used as threaded rods or hexagon nuts, for example.

Bridge renovation

CFRP louvres als ideal solution for bridge renovation: much lighter, elekctrical and thermal insulating, corrosion resistant and resistant to aggressiva media.

Door sills and window frames

Pultruded frp profiles with a special shape tailored to your requirements, reduced weight, good thermal insulation and good surface for paint.

Ballistic panels

DuroProtect® and LignoProtect® have been developed for a wide range of civil and military applications: bullet-proof, blast-proof, splinter-proof or fire-proof.

Benefits of using thermoplastics or composites in the building industry

Material-saving

Our production methods allow resources to be optimised by getting the maximum material benefit out of each product.

Weight reduction

Minimum 30% weight reduction compared to aluminium and more than 75% compared to steel

High mechanical properties

The high mechanical strength offers the advantage that even under high loads, the safety and reliability of the product can be maintained and designs can be optimized.

Close tolerances

Highest precision and accuracy in manufacturing not only offers more safety, but also facilitates the assembly of individual components

Partnership

As your partner our experts support you in designing your application with the right material

Properties for the different construction applications

How can you benefit from our Composite or Theromplastic advantages? Here are a few properties of how our products can support your project:

Durostone® FRP Rebar High performance reinforcement bars

  • High corrosion resistance - no rust
  • Permanent alkali and chemical resistance as well as high acid resistance even in very demanding environments
  • Resistant to concrete carbonation and acid attack, e.g. aggressive mountain water or industrial waste water
  • Greatly reduced maintenance and servicing costs
  • Enormous tensile strength and first-class durability of mechanical properties
  • Very good bond stress properties for optimum force transmission
  • Significantly easier and safer handling on construction sites
  • No electrical or electromagnetic conductivity
  • Transparent for radar, radio and radio waves
  • Very low thermal conductivity, thus avoiding thermal bridges

Durostone® composite fasteners like Frp threaded rods or hexagonal nuts

  • Electrically insulating and non-magnetic.
  • Partial discharge-free at high electrical field strengths.
  • Ideal for construction projects with high-frequency technology and electrostatic safety.
  • High resistance to aggressive liquids and gases.
  • Resistant to UV radiation, weathering and chemicals.
  • Perfect for construction applications in corrosion protection, waste water treatment and cable ducts.
  • Very low thermal conductivity (0.3 W/mK).
  • Avoids thermal bridges in insulation systems.
  • Ideal for refrigeration and air conditioning technology as well as energy-efficient buildings.
  • Around 75 % lighter than steel.
  • Easy processing and installation with reduced weight.
  • Particularly suitable for load-bearing structures and lightweight construction projects.
  • Provides stability and safety in demanding building constructions.

Durostone® and Glastic® pultruded profiles for door sills and window frames

  • Excellent thermal insulation: Minimises thermal bridges, increases energy efficiency.
  • High strength: Light and stable, withstands high loads.
  • Weather resistance: Resistant to moisture, UV rays and chemicals.
  • Low weight: Easy to install, saves time and money.
  • Freedom of design: Flexible in shape and surface.
  • Environmentally friendly: Durable, low-maintenance, resource-saving.
  • Sound insulation: Reduces noise, increases living comfort.

Ballistic panels made of DuroProtect® and LignoProtect®

  • Effective protection against ballistic impacts, ideal for security-relevant building areas.
  • DuroProtect® and LignoProtect® have very good blast resistance and protect against splinters.
  • Significantly lighter than traditional protective materials such as steel, they are easier to integrate into construction projects.
  • DuroProtect® and LignoProtect® are characterised by high resistance to aggressive chemicals, are UV and corrosion resistant as well as wear-resistant and can be adapted to specific building requirements and architectures.
  • Combines protection with insulating properties, ideal for energy-efficient buildings
  • DuroProtect® and LignoProtect® are available in flame-retardant and self-extinguishing versions
