Ceramic composite elements KerAion Plus with invisible fastening

System description
The KerAion Plus composite elements consist of 8 mm thick KerAion base panels which are covered with 6 or 8 mm thick ceramic tiles (e.g. series Chroma II). The individual tiles of the surface covering with a maximum side length of 40 cm must not cover more than an area of 0.12 m² (DIN 18515, Part 1). Bonding and pointing are carried out in-plant by a specially tested technique.

Essential system advantages

• Proven and safe invisible fastening with system KerAion Quadro
• Varied possibilities of application above all at the protection of historical monuments, renovations and restorations
• The look of smaller ceramic formats combined with the fastening technique and the construction-physical advantages of rear-ventilated, heat-insulated facade systems
• Applicable up to the size of 120 x 120 cm (grid sizes of the surface covering matched to the respective panel size of the base panel)
• Non-combustible, building material class A2
• General approval of the supervisory authority by the “Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik”, Berlin, as extension to the existing approvals Z-33.1-21 and Z-33.1-27

 

SikaTack®-Panel - invisible fastening by glueing technique

System description
The economical system SikaTack®-Panel is a glueing system for the hidden and stress-free mounting of facade panels. The system consists of the permanently elastic glue SikaTack®-Panel, the SikaTack®-Panel mounting tape, self-adhesive on both sides, for the fixing of the panels as well as the corresponding products for the pretreatment of the bases. With the system SikaTack®-Panel, facade panels are invisibly fastened on commercially available substructures.

Only those companies are permitted to carry out the glueing who have furnished proof of the corresponding aptitude according to Annex A of the general approval of the supervisory authority (no. Z-10.8-286).

Essential system advantages

• Invisible fastening by glueing technique
• No weakening of the facade panel by undercut anchors
• The low panel weight of 18 kg/m² facilitates transport and handling and also permits the use in case of a statically demanding building structure
• Complete system: building material class B1, max. building height according to the legal construction specifications of the country concerned
• Great design scope thanks to a wide variety of sizes up to 120 x 120 cm
• General approval of the supervisory authority by the “Deutsches Institut für Bautechnik”, Berlin: no. Z-10.8-286

Important:
The use of silicone caoutchoucs must be absolutely avoided, because silicone fluids segregate and effect sticky surfaces on which dirt adheres. Therefore, only use the system components mentioned (foamed pieces, EPDM rubber profile, neoprene rubber washer) and pointing, bonding and sealing materials recommended by us. We will be pleased to inform you in detail. The usual final cleaning after completion of the construction works is still required.
