EXPANSION JOINT SYSTEMS
FOR FLOORS, WALLS & CEILINGS
Great Design For

Great Building
The Steadily increasing demands in the building industry as well as new building materials and methods lead to a
greater and greater number of optimized joint pro les.
Therefore, we put the efforts in researching and manufacturing to produce a magni cent masterpiece that satisfy
our client needs.
For Special problems that cannot be resolved with existing pro les, the quali ed engineers of our engineering
department develop suitable special systems. By maintaining a permanent and open communication with our
partners like architects, customers and end users, we are in position to recognize new challenges in time and to work
out suitable problem solutions.
Our Missions
Projects
In each time sales team has an opportunity to get any project in hand,
they request from our engineering department to make the necessary
site survey, their own suggestion and presales designs and studies to
propose it to the client as a solution for his project in any type or circum-
stances.
Sales Strategic Team

Our quali ed sales team are deployed and cover the entire Kingdom of
Saudi Arabia areas and in many G.C.C. countries under our client's
project location, supported by all the necessary catalogs and samples
that required by the client.
Customer's Relations
Our goal is to gain and maintain a very close and longtime relationship
with our clients. Honest communication, operating ethically and ful ll-
ing our commitments are standard rules in our work. We believe a
great relation leads to a great success.
Quality Assurance
We promise you that only perfect products leave our works. Regular
training and further education of our master artisans and skilled workers
as well as modern machinery are a permanent guarantee for a high tech-
nical standard. adhearing to the delivery dates promised by us is the
highest percept for us.
Supply & Installation

Our installation team is made by an incredible high quali ed engineers
and technicians who are aware of the installation issues, quality, safety
and schedule. In other hand we know that our client will be satis ed
with our shipping and supplying the equipments into the site by a high
safety and fast transportation.
Technical Advice
One of our main tasks consists in giving detailed technical advice and
information to the planning offices and to our customers as the
earliest possible stage. Particular demands and wishes can thus still be
considered and worked individually and creatively.

For floating floor finishes, the profiles are installed after the insula-
tion sheets have been placed.
The perforated mounting brackets of the profiles are pressed into
the first fresh layer of screed. Then more screed is applied.
The thickness of screed below the profiles must be at least
20 mm, which guarantees that the screed will not break off under
load.
The perforated mounting brackets ensure secure fixing. This
method of installation avoids the transmission of sound.
For floating floor finishes, our profiles of series GU 35/… are par-
ticularly recommended as a carpet and/or PVC-floor covering is
usually laid on the screed later on.
These profiles are supplied with a flush mounted distance insert.
The top edge of the aluminium profile can be used as a screeding
guide.
The distance insert protects the profile until the finish is laid. So
the aluminium profiles are flush with the screed and cannot be
damaged by site traffic.
When carpets are to be glued, the carpet must slightly overlap
the distance insert. The excess is cut off after glueing, using the A steel roller may be used to assist installation. Do not use

strip. The perforated side plates are fixed to the substrate with
nonrusting steel nails. Before the aluminium side plates are fixed,
a 70 mm wide strip of mortar must be applied on both sides of the
joint. The profiles are designed for a thickness of plasterwork of
12 mm, 15 mm or 20 mm. If thicker plaster skins are required, E 15/300
compensation must be made for this in the initial mortar layer
placed under the side plates. The profile must be fixed rigidly to
the substrate and must on no account be allowed to have free
movement, otherwise cracks in the plaster will occur. Fixings
must be made as far as possible from the edge of the joint to pre-
vent spalling of the wall.
SERIES GB 25/...
The surfaces on which the profile will be placed adjoining the joint
must be smooth and free from contamination. The protruding part
of the profile will be placed in the joint, so that the side plates pro-
vided with cellular rubber strips lie firmly on the base. Then pro-
files are aligned and fixed by screws and dowels. If joints on the
inside of the building are to be covered, it is sufficient to glue the
profiles in place with a contact adhesive. For this, the wall sur-
faces, however, are to be absolutely smooth and free from con-
tamination and paint. Always leave a gap of approx. 5 mm at the GB 25/300
butt joints of the aluminium profiles in case of exterior use. After
installation a permanently flexible sealing compound should be
applied to these gaps.
SERIES GB 12/...
The surfaces on which the profile will be placed adjoining the joint
must be smooth and free from contamination. Then profiles are
aligned and fixed by screws and plugs. If joints on the inside of
the building are to be covered, it is sufficient to glue the profiles in
place with a contact adhesive. For this, the wall surfaces, how-
ever, are to be absolutely smooth and free from contamination
and paint. Always leave a gap of approx. 5 mm at the butt joints
of the aluminium profiles in case of exterior use. After installation
a permanently flexible sealing compound should be applied to
these gaps.
Please remember when installing the profiles with fold GB 12/500 Scale 1 : 2
insert:
1. The insert must be installed in slight tension in width to

ensure that the ribs in the insert retain their straightness.
2. Fold inserts must always be installed in one continuous
length (not butt- or lap-jointed).
3. Always start installation at the top of the joint. To avoid
slipping, the insert must be fixed on the top by pinching the
aluminium groove with a pair of pliers, chisel, hammer or
similar. Before installation is started, the first 1 - 2 metres of
insert must be pinched at intervals of approx. 100 mm on
both sides. Then further aluminium profiles are pushed from
below and fixed with screws.
