Solutions
Fixings, mapped to the problem they solve.
Five solution areas covering everything that goes into, onto and around the concrete, from the anchor cast into the raft to the reflective coating on the roof. Each carries its own standards set, corrosion strategy and certification package.
Civil Solutions
Structural bolting, anchor bolt assemblies, rebar couplers and formwork accessories, with the waterproofing, tanking and thermal insulation around the concrete.
Construction Chemicals
Admixtures, non-shrink grouts, repair mortars, anchoring adhesives, sealants and industrial flooring, the chemistry that makes the mix work at 45 °C.
MEP Solutions
Beam clamps, threaded rod, channel support, cable containment, pipe fixings and plumbing systems, the support and distribution layer, drill-free where the structure allows.
Sustainable Solutions
Flange bolting for refineries and gas plants, plus mounting structures, balance-of-system and earthing for utility-scale and rooftop solar.
Architectural Solutions
Drywall and ceiling systems, facade and cladding support, tile and movement joint profiles, linear drainage, decorative screens and urban elements, everything that closes and finishes a building.
How we scope
Three questions decide the fastener.
Before a grade is confirmed, the technical desk resolves the same three variables on every enquiry. Most substitution disputes on site trace back to one of them being assumed rather than answered.
- 01
What is the duty?
Tension, shear, or a preloaded slip-critical connection. Pressure-retaining or structural. This sets the grade family (F3125 A325 against A490, A193 B7 against B8M) before anything else is decided.
- 02
What is the environment?
Inland dry, coastal chloride, buried, insulated, or sour. This sets the material and the coating: electro-zinc, hot-dip galvanized, PTFE, or a move to A4 stainless and duplex alloys.
- 03
What must be proven?
EN 10204 3.1 as standard; 3.2 with third-party witness where the client requires it. Add PMI, hardness to NACE limits, Charpy impact, or coating thickness records as the specification dictates.
Product profiles
Twenty one profile families.
The manufactured range behind the five solution areas, listed by the article code a specifier actually writes on a drawing, with the stocked sizes and stock lengths against each series.
