pgb-Europe showcases extensive range 22 November 2018

At Fastener Fair France pgb-Europe will be showcasing its extensive range of more than 15,000 different high-quality fasteners – according to DIN, ISO and EN standards – including TUV certified SB bolts (EN 15048) and HV/HR bolts (EN 14399), from stock.

Also on display will be its pfs-screws – a range of professional wood screws for different applications all with CE Marking, and technical reports. The screws are produced under pgb’s own supervision in its wood screw factory in Vietnam.

As well as its pfs-screws, pgb will also be outlining the benefits of Hapax – high-quality solutions for invisible and visible fastening of wooden decks. A diverse range of Hapax wedges and tools that will help users construct wooden decks accurately, fast and professionally will also be displayed. Another of pgb’s innovations include its SMART® high-quality nylon, steel and chemical anchors – covered by European Technical Assessments. For designers, pgb will also be presenting its free professional calculation software, produced under its supervision in its production facility in Poland.

New for this year, pgb will also be showcasing its SMART® insulation fixings. The economical, energy efficient and safe fixings – suitable for ETICS as well as all building materials – include the innovative S-IPT 8 – a screwed-in fixing, which is strongly recommended for thick insulations. It has a short embedment depth and is the most versatile.

Also available is the S-IPH 10, a hammered-in fixing with very good pullout resistance and a very short installation time. Accessories such as special insulation discs for soft insulation like mineral wool make the SMART insulation plugs suitable for all jobs. The STY anchor is a special threaded insulation plug to fix light things to external insulation.
