Building profiles

Dry construction consisting of metal framed walls with plasterboard is well suited for changing room space through partitions or by extending the top floor. This enables individual and flexible room design. Even suspended ceilings can be realized quickly and cost-effectively. Noise protection and fire protection requirements can be realized quickly and conveniently through the use of suitable insulating materials in the cavities.

Partition walls in wood post and beam construction have many disadvantages. For instance they weigh more and wood absorbs moisture and warps. This not only results in wall curvature, it also causes undesired noises. Also it may be that technical fire protection requirements are not satisfied.

Metal-framed walls are ideally suited for partition walls and suspended ceilings. They can be implemented easily and individually. Fast realization and suitability for fire protection and noise insulation are additional advantages of metal-framed walls.

Plaster is not only a design element it also serves to protect the building façade. Edges and delimitation show clear lines and enable the visual desires of the builder to become reality. Surfaces delimitation and edges that are realized with plastering profiles contribute to a building’s clean and precisely worked out contour. Moreover with plastering profiles the thickness of the plaster application can be uniformly maintained. At the same time the profiles serve as plaster reinforcement. The profiles are also an aid for the DIY enthusiast without a plastering machine, as they enable precise plaster work. For this we have a selection of different profiles in our product line.

If you do not attach corner beads (corner rails) prior to plastering then, as shown in the photo, the corners will chip over the years through climate influences or corner impact from objects such as push carts, tricycles, furniture or similar items.

If corner beads (corner rails) are properly installed prior to plastering then you can effectively prevent this chipping of the plaster.

Builder's squares are required to check the planarity of walls, also for smoothing screed or for smoothing a bed of chippings when laying interlocking paving stone. The builder's square with integrated water level also allows you to check whether a wall is vertical or whether a floor is horizontal. The builder's square is made of aluminium and is available in six or four lengths.

The floats are required in order to draw off the plaster planar when plastering a wall. The float is made of aluminium and is available in eight lengths.
