The building roof has the function of preserving the internal environment from external agents, resisting the elements, preventing the onset of humidity and containing the building's heat loss. To obtain these performances, modern roofs have adopted a complex stratigraphy: the various layers interact with each other to perform the different functions required by the roof.

Among the elements that make up the urban drainage system there are crowning and closing devices. The UNI EN 124:2015 standard defines:
• crowning device the upper part of a collection well composed of a frame and grate with or without cover;
• closing device the upper part of an inspection pit or inspection chamber composed of a frame and a cover and/or grid.
In this case, the gully gratings play the fundamental role of connecting the road surface and the sewer pipes, intercepting the rainwater that flows on the surface, but also that of closing manholes serving the electricity, telephone and road lines.
Based on their hydraulic role, the gully gratings are designed to significantly interfere with the rainwater runoff regime, counteract road erosion and avoid dynamic and viscous aquaplaning linked to the thickness of the water film on the roadway.

The structure of a building flooris is a result of an elaborate stratigraphy that depending on the material chosen and the type of floor on which it is laid.
The use of the terms subfloor, laying base and reinforced mesh as synonyms often misleads, because they are different parts of the stratigraphy.
In usual building practice, the subfloor is laid on top of the attic: a horizontal layer, approximately 10 cm thick, having the function of filling the cavity with the systems and compensating for thickness irregularities.
The reinforced mesh is subsequently laid as a support layer for the floors which has the purpose of resisting the various mechanical stresses imparted both by the flooring and by its operation, distributing the static and dynamic loads.
It is one of the components of the stratigraphy of the floor that must be studied with greater attention based on the type of floor and the physical and mechanical performance required, which is why it is said: "each floor has its own reinforced mesh".

The cover/grid system, frame and well form a single body used for specific functions which will have to withstand stresses and be accessible for inspections and maintenance. The installation of the frame on the well is therefore an operation of fundamental importance to guarantee the stability of the device.
Before proceeding with the installation, it is therefore essential to take into consideration both the materials used and the project, as well as the minimum time to be respected before restoring normal circulation to prevent premature subsidence of the bedding, with the consequent separation of the frame from the cockpit.

Combined kerb and drainage units are fundamental elements of connection between the roadway and rainwater sewer pipes, designed to intercept and convey the rainwater (or road washing) that flows in the surface. They are installed on the roads, in correspondence with the sidewalk kerbs of streets, squares or parking lots, to prevent water from excessively accumulating on the surface, exposed to the meteoric event. In addition to this thanks to hinged covers, they allow cleaning and an easier access to underground rain collecting systems.

Chambers are very important in the rainwater management, in fact they stand as a fundamental part of the system. Moreover, the drain trap is an essential element of the gully/chamber system by conveying rainweater correctly, preventing bad smells coming out from the drains, avoiding in the same time clogging and whirpools. In most of the market available drain traps , however, rainwater and debris often create stagnation, becoming an environment issue for the proliferation of unpleasant insects such as tiger mosquitoes, cockroaches, drain flies, and several other insects and rodents, creating a real hygiene issue. These problems are often addressed with insecticides and chemicals that may accumulate, from time to time, in the aquifers and in the surrounding soils with a relapse toxicity problem to the environment.
As a possible solution against insect larvae, with particular focus on sustainability, Link proposes the innovative ECOSYSTEM: an intelligent tilting lever (open/close) mechanism.

The industrial insulation details generally provide that the insulation of the pipes takes place during downtime for maintenance, when the temperature of the pipes is low, and then changes rapidly when the system returns to operation, creating an important thermal expansion that can lead to to severe losses of heat and energy. Therefore, a double layer insulation system is often required to mitigate the potential opening of the joints.
Expert in such processes, Paroc offers half-shell cup solutions and, in addition, the innovative PAROC Pro Lock single-layer solution.
PAROC Pro Lock is a unique solution, which offers the advantages of double-layer insulation but with a single single-layer application. It is a single cup with 2 overlapping thicknesses and staggered interlocking joints (Z-Lock) - both circumferential and longitudinal - which minimize the heat loss caused by mechanical expansion.

The appropriate classes of manhole covers and/or gully tops are distinguished according to the place of installation, the loading classes and are divided into groups. This classification, indicated in the UNI EN 124-1 standard of 2015, chapter 4, determines their use and place of installation, dividing them into groups numbered from 1 to 6. The Standard dictates (data in brackets) the minimum loading class of reference for each individual group. According to EN124-2015, manhole covers and/or gully tops must comply with certain parameters relating to the production material, whether or not combined with different materials, as well as meet precise design requirements.

In physics the wheelbarrow is a second type lever which, consisting of a rigid body (lever) capable of rotating around a fixed point, fulcrum, (the axis of the wheel) does not carry energy, but moves towards an external position forces. In the second type lever, the transfer of energy is always advantageous because the power arm (the force we apply to lift the handles) is always longer than the resistance arm (the force we have to overcome - the load). It follows that the transport of a load through this type of lever is useful for those who have to carry weights.
Structurally, the wheelbarrows are formed by a container that receives the load, resting on a frame made of sheet metal, equipped with pedestals to support the wheelbarrow without it overturning and two handles, as an extension of the poles connected to the wheel axis. The poles form the frame of the wheelbarrow, and the supports for ground support are fixed on them.
Link offers a series of accessories studied to complete the building range, including wheelbarrow wheels, performing and safe because tested not only at the manufacturer, but also by national laboratories, designed to give completeness to the building range.

When planning a sustainable building, the main challenge is how to achieve eco-friendly goals while ensuring a safe and well-functioning structure. In terms of energy, efficiency, it is not a question of how much insulation to add, but what is the right application choice for the building, considering both the entire ecosystem-building and its function as a system, to achieve full owner satisfaction and occupants.
Thinking in terms of design through the lens of integrated systems (so that the acoustic, thermal and humidity mitigation systems work fully and efficiently throughout the life of a building), which takes into account the physical interfaces between the facade and the the building structure, as well as the functional structure between the envelope and the systems, represents a salient point in eco-friendly design. The regulatory framework, in this context, has changed over the years, paying particular attention not only to the aspects of energy containment of buildings, but also to those related to acoustic well-being, sustainability and safety (with particular attention to the danger of propagation of fire).
The trend in recent years to build ever taller buildings has brought the increased fire risk to the building system to the attention of researchers. In fact, architects and designers of curtain walls have often recognized that the void created between the attic and the external wall, if left unprotected, would allow fire and smoke to spread quickly from one floor to another.
Firespan 40 & 90 EU panels offer a solution to this problem as they have been tested to the North American standard ASTM E2307: a fire test standard for evaluating the performance of perimeter fire barrier systems that measures the capability of perimeter fire barrier systems prevent the spread of fire when the outer wall flexes or deforms during exposure to fire. ASTM E2307 also determines the period of time in which the perimeter fire protection system limits the penetration of the flame through the cavity (internal void between the floor and the external wall.)
Firespan 40 & 90 EU are Underwriters Laboratories certified fire resistant panels, moisture resistant, which guarantees anti-corrosion and anti-mold effect, moreover they do not deteriorate over time, maintaining constant performance of thermal insulation, fire protection, better acoustic comfort and vapor barrier with the foil faced Firespan 40 & 90 or used in steel back pan assemblies. The panels comply with the North American standards ASTM C 612 and UL specific for mineral fiber panels.
Firespan 40 & 90 EU possess the certifications necessary for the buildings to obtain the LEED and are scrupulously examined at each stage of the life cycle in order to calculate their environmental impact
All related information is collected and published in technical documents and certificates called EPD (Environmental Product Declaration) in accordance with the EN 15804 standard.

Urban spaces have experienced a great transformation in history following the historical and cultural changes of man, immediately perceptible in the architecture and plans of our cities.
Structural changes that have brought out the difficulty of calibrating this evolution with the needs of the community and its territorial identity, such as to trigger, in the architectural debate of the 21st century, strategies for recovering data spaces, putting hand to new "hooked" architectural elements to existing buildings. The search for new design solutions has led to architectural experiments such as parasitic architecture designed to transform urban space by taking something from existing buildings and inserting new elements.
Whether it is a question of hanging green spaces or urban en plein air constructions, galvanized grids and recessed access cover can offer their contribution in ectoparasitic architectural creations.

Renovating the house is a necessary process in the life of a property that is inevitably destined to age. The interventions can take place both on the building part and on the systems and can concern important redevelopment actions or simply be planned for a restyling of the interior of the house.
Beyond the extraordinary or ordinary maintenance interventions, even the simple decision to renovate the house, starting with a new paint job, requires targeted planning and the implementation of some precautions. In fact, painting is one of the simplest ways to bring aesthetic changes to the rooms of the house through an apparently simple operation that requires some precautions, such as: knowing the types of water-based paints, the characteristics of the surfaces, trying the chosen color, having the right amount (detergent, spatulas, sandpaper, putty, etc.) and protect the environment (floors, stupid, electrical sockets, baseboards and furniture).
The walls must be carefully prepared, brushed and often washed. If there are cracks and holes, it is necessary to scrape the damaged areas by removing the parts that tend to come off and fill the cracks. Similarly, in the event that there is upholstery to be removed, it is necessary to proceed with a deep wetting, or if there is mold, a specific treatment is essential. Works that involve a significant production of debris, powders and liquids that can compromise the success of the work.
For this reason, as a first precaution, it is essential to spread a specific cloth on the floor that protects it from fragments, from any stains and from frequent passages with work shoes.
Link Industries, offers its customers PFR-110/125/150: a professional, non-slip, absorbent, reusable cloth, hot coupled with PE film, 180g / sqm.
It is commonly called "Millefiori" for the colored dots of the recycled fabric that constitutes it, whose raw material is verified in accordance with the "REACH" regulation 1907/2006 / EC, to ensure constant monitoring of any risks of intrinsic chemical substances in the products marketed.
The application of a specific felt, instead of the common newspaper sheet or polyethylene sheets, offers a greater grip reducing the risk of slipping and, given the structure of the cloth coupled with the polyethylene film, holds liquids more easily avoiding the stains. The specific grammage performed protects the floors from accidental impacts, scratches and grooves due to the pressure of stairs or small scaffolding.
Correctly spread, up to covering the skirting board on which it can be fixed with relative paper tape for building works, it saves 1/4 of the time, minimizing the final phase of restoration and cleaning. It can also be used several times and used not only in building applications but also in removals as a packaging membrane, minimizing the investment.
We offer two main ranges both consisting of an aluminum structure, raw finish, PUSH & PULL closure and moisture resistant plasterboard:
ECO RAW RANGE - Consisting of angular fixings with self-tapping screws and door lock with steel fin
ECO PLUS RAW RANGE - Consisting of rivet fasteners and door lock with chain and EVO gaskets.
Link hatches are easy to install and their assembly usually involves 4 phases:
1) marking INTERNAL CONTOUR and engraving the shape and size of the hatch on the plasterboard panel
2) insertion of the hatch in the hole made in the plasterboard to position the external frame
3) fixing the hatch frame using suitable plasterboard screws
4) hatch door installation and closing

The manhole tops are structures with a removable cover used on services, drain and sewer to grant access and inspection to underground chambers. To the same extent, the gullies are similar assemblies in this case with slotted tops, designed to receive water for discharge into the drainage systems.
Link manhole tops and gullies designs, provide an efficient securing feature called "Smartlock". The elastic properties typical of ductile cast iron, applied onto lock bars, allow the securing of the tops to the relative frames avoiding accidental or unauthorized openings and in the same time greatly reducing clatter. Smartlock is available on all C250 and D400 manhole tops and Gullies.

The software calculates the solutions realized obtained with PAROC technical insulation products based on equations described in standard EN ISO 12241, which provides the methods for counting the properties related to the heat transport of building and industrial installations, mainly in steady state, providing a simplified approach to the treatment of thermal bridges. Furthermore, the latest developments of the program open the door to the world of shipbuilding: the database of available products has been updated by introducing the PAROC Marine & Offshore range, including all the relevant specialized coatings dedicated to them. This update allows to perform the calculations related to all the isolated insulated elements present on ships and offshore installations - such as drains, pipes, ducts, tanks - by correctly using the MED-certified PAROC products.
To perform calculations with Marine & Offshore products, just access the software link, place a check mark in the "Marine object" selection box under the "Select object" item. The offer of the product database goes on to naval ones.
tick the "Marine object" box under the "Select objet" heading. The product offering will be switched to marine products.
The introduction of Marine & Offshore products with specific coatings allows the correct thermal emissivity to be used in calculating the surface temperature of the insulation. This represents a considerable importance both for the protection of the embarked personnel, guaranteeing the effective safety of the material used, and for the guarantee of the correct functioning of the insulation applied. In fact modern shipbuilding increasingly pays attention on the issue of weight saving of boats for reasons of fuel efficiency, navigation autonomy and maneuverability. Moreover, a useful software, always updated and correctly configured on applied products by the parent company , is an indispensable tool for designers in order to assess the weight of the insulation used.
Calculus is free and easy to use with any device.

The form modeling activity, in foundry processes, represents one of the fundamental and most delicate steps in the cast iron product cycle, whose design and implementation requires specific skills and high levels of precision. It is the place where ideas become a shape; where the cast iron melted in the oven, collected in the ladle and transported in the pouring channel, reaches the mold in order to produce a carefully prepared form.

From an experimental study carried out on different insulating materials by an independent external laboratory, Paroc stone wool proved to be one of the most performing insulation materials in terms of moisture resistance. The analysis was carried out on four different mechanisms of moisture transport and their effect on buildings with the awareness that moisture penetrates the structures not only during atmospheric precipitation, but also through a silent path, difficult to control.

The analysis was carried out on four different mechanisms of moisture transport and their effect on buildings with the awareness that moisture penetrates the structures not only during atmospheric precipitation, but also through a silent path, difficult to control.
Moisture transport mechanisms are carefully studied in the building design phase, but they must also be carefully assessed during the construction of buildings, not only for the correct application of the products, but also for the interchanges between different materials and their conservation in the dockyard.
An independent study conducted by the VTT (VTT-S-05337-17) demonstrated that there are differences among the insulating materials in terms of moisture resistance.
In fact, during the construction of a building a certain amount of atmospheric water is inevitably given to the structure, in addition to the one contained in construction materials, and even if the insulation does not get wet, the humidity level of the rest of the components increases. For this reason, the water vapor permeability of the insulation materials plays a key role in the drying time of the entire structure, allowing moisture to escape.

Frequently the atmospheric precipitations exceed the infiltration of water into the ground. In environments with non-waterproof surfaces such as woods and fields, the runoff phenomenon is poorly perceived because the meteorological waters are generally filtered into the ground. Instead, in urban environments, characterized by overbuilding, the surfaces are mostly impermeable and rainwater flows superficially in a motion often conditioned by depressions, pipes and channels. These runoff waters, if they are not managed correctly, can cause damage to the environment, because they are responsible for the leaching of particulates and heavy metals deposited on the asphalt. Devices for gully tops and manhole tops for vehicular and pedestrian areasand tanks for the drainage and containment of rainwater, wastewater or irrigation: these become the fundamental safeguards for the containment of this phenomenon.

The primary interest of each owner is that their investment is functional, efficient and advantageous. To obtain such a performance, plays a decisive role the performance of the building envelope that they must guarantee a wholesomeness of the indoor parts and the longevity of the systems. The technological evolution of the energy performance of the building envelope is expressed fully in the Passive House, whose energy demand for heating and cooling the internal environment is cleared of passive devices. An integral part of the passive architecture is the "Rendered facade", as a composite solution that provides for the application with gluing and / or mechanical fixing of insulating panels on the external side of the building envelope, finished superficially with a shaving cycle with reinforcement network. This solution, properly designed and correctly laid (both in new buildings and in renovations), becomes the main instrument to achieve correct thermal insulation by minimizing energy consumption, maximizing comfort, while increasing efficiency and durability of the system. investment and the real life of the structures with a low environmental impact.
Based on the European Standards (ETICS System), Paroc has developed a special panel, the LINIO 10, which meets the characteristics required for the single rock wool product for the cladding system and which meets all the requirements for the insulating panels contained in it. in the ETA (European Technical Assessment), obtained according to the ETAG004 Guidelines by the leading market systems.
To complete the passive insulation system of the building envelope, Link proposes glass fiber nets as reinforcing elements for the external glazing cycle of the cladding system, and for the insulating cover package it recommends a series of breathable and control membranes steamed for the correct migration of the water vapor flow from the inside to the outside of the building, also through the cover:
• nets fiber glass (reinforcing elements of the external shaving cycle of cladding systems) are a material that does not rust, is not attackable by biological agents, has no problems of aging or deterioration, and according to the type chosen, finds large use in buildings for reinforcement of the finishing shaving cycle in ETAG004 insulation systems, or as networks for thick plasters or nets for thin coatings of plasters.
• transpiring membranes (which provide a waterproof and airtight cover, resistant to loads) and vapor control barriers (which regulate the flow of steam that migrates from the inside to the outside of the heated building, avoiding thermohygrometric situations critiques with formation of interstitial or superficial condensation in the covering stratigraphy, especially in winter periods).
The proposed solutions can be used to reinterpret "old methods" in an innovative way, reaching, with extreme ease of installation, the highest performances, solving at the same time the problems related to the recovery of the existing and / or the efficiency of the new one.
The future is the Passive House, informed to increase the efficiency and functionality of your home through a new green and sustainable approach.

Modern construction can be defined not only by triumphs of contemporary architecture but also by ever-developing installation technologies. From heating and water pipes to smoke and exhaust pipes and chimneys, from HVAC equipment to ventilation ducts – installation systems perform many roles in terms of a building’s proper functionality; fire safety being one of the most important. Why should proper technical insulation be given priority when speaking about buildings’ passive fire protection?

Designed for efficient air and water circulation for heating, ventilation and air conditioning purposes, HVAC systems often pass for a building’s “cardiovascular system”. Since it is common for pipework to cross through individual fire separation walls, it is crucial for them to retain sufficient fire protection. Because pipe penetrations weaken a partition’s overall resistance, professional fitting and proper materials are necessary in order to prevent/minimise fire transition through individual fire zones. Because of that all openings and service penetrations must meet certain requirements:
According to EN 1366-1 standard there are various types of ducts that differ in virtue of the propagation from inside or outside to the fire conduct (iào, ißo) and the vertical or horizontal arrangement of the pipeline ( I-I). When describing service penetrations’ fire resistance, we employ similar performance criteria as in the case of building components and construction, namely fire protection rating related to integrity (E) and insulation (I). Normally the fire resistance classification is given as a time limit (in minutes 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240 or 360) during which the performance criteria is fulfilled in a standardised fire test. Integrity (E) is the ability of a test specimen of a building construction element to prevent the flames and hot gases from passing through when exposed to fire on one side, and to prevent the occurrence of flames on the unexposed side. Insulation (I) defines said object’s ability to restrict the temperature rise of the unexposed face to below specified levels. Construction meets its integrity limit after ignition of a cotton wool pad or sustained 10 seconds’ flaming on the unexposed side. The limit for fire protection rating related to insulation (I) is met when the temperature increase on the unexposed side exceeds 180°C in relation to the initial state. The analogy between performance criteria between barrier walls and service penetrations is no coincidence. The latter, being part of fire separation walls, should be classified with fire protection classes (EI) required for said constructions, meaning a necessity to employ insulation materials with fire reaction class not lower than the fire resistance of the construction itself. Fume seal (S) defines the passage of flue gas to the side not exposed to fire.
Depending on the installation type, different insulation methods and materials should be applied and ventilation ducts must be selected with the appropriate fire-fighting performance. Paroc has developed a non-combustible wired mat usually covered with aluminum foil interposed between the wool and the net for fire protection of the ventilation ducts. The product is PAROC Hvac Fire Mat (Alucoat), a fireproof, flexible mattress made of biosoluble rock wool, covered with aluminum foil on one side and then quilted with a triple-twist hexagonal galvanized steel mesh. It is tested to achieve a protection up to EI 120 of rectangular and circular ducts, both vertical and horizontal, for internal and external fire exposure. For all the solutions, the product thicknesses to be applied and the characteristics of the metal pipelines will have to respond to what reported in the laboratory certificates.
At the time of installation it is required to cover the ventilation duct with the PAROC Hvac Fire Mat Alucoat mat and to close the longitudinal and transverse edges with galvanized steel wire. Fix the mat further to the ventilation duct with the galvanized steel wire every 330 mm (two fastenings per mattress band).

The grid is a rectilinear group consisting of two plates contained by a border that is distinguished in:
• the supporting plate is the one with the largest dimension suitable for unloading weight on the edging;
• the connecting plate (or secondary) is the one that connects and unites the load-bearing plates, unloading the weight on them and making them solid.
The grid can be contained in a frame for the intended use, whose function is to interpose between the grid and the product on which it will be supported.
The different production process distinguishes the grids in three types:
• electro-welded - smooth and twisted connecting rounds sold welded to the bearings .;
• pressed - the connecting plates are interlocked by means of special grooves arranged mechanically by very high pressure;
• printed - the supporting plate, with a closed profile, is formed by punching a pre-galvanized steel sheet obtained through the cutting processes.
Link, thanks to its long experience in the sector, is able to develop a wide range of customizations, while a series of steel grids, pressed (with or without frame), hot-dip galvanized according to the UNI EN standard are always available in stock ISO 1461, standard mesh (33x33 mm) and light duty heel proof (33x11 mm) as a selection proposed by our technicians.
The range of sizes available, the various possibilities for customization, durability and a marked aesthetic taste make these products widely used in various applications. For more information please contact us.

A wonderful LNG ferry, commissioned by Baleària, built by the Visentini Shipyard and equipped with NAVIS Link
In 2017, the Visentini Shipyard in Donada (RO) has signed a contract for the construction of two LNG ferries ordered by Baleària: an ambitious project that starts off the first dual-fuel ferry ro-pax from Spain operating in the Mediterranean. The Venetian shipyard therefore will build two ferries commissioned with identical characteristics and powered by liquefied natural gas to enhance the fleet's eco-efficiency. In fact, the use of LNG and other clean energies will reduce CO2 and NOx by over 40%, while at the same time eliminating harmful emissions of sulfur and other particles.
The Visentini shipyard, an historical Link’s customer, has contacted us, knowing our products and the availability of our technical office, for the use of new lightweight stone-wool solutions and the Paroc Marine Navis Slab has joined into the ambitious Baleària project, combining the excellent quality that has always distinguished PAROC marine insulation solutions with the technological innovation required by the sector.
Hypatia de Alejandria presents itself as "our case history": a newbuilding, eco-efficient, built according to the new naval dictates that ask to reduce the weights of the boats so that they can consume less fuel and impact less on the environment. In fact, the new solutions, 40% lighter than in the past, were used for all steel structures in class A30 and A60 while for the class A15 structures were used solutions with Marine Fire Slab 80 that do not require coating on reinforcements, both bulkhead and deck. Coibentazioni Navali Toffoletto Naval, historical reality for the installation of insulation, was able to confirm the goodness of the materials during on-board processing. The finishing work was made using the LINK TAPE fiberglass tape and the LINK V20 glue, from the LINK Industries range of marine accessories. The excellent consistency of the low-density panels NAVIS has allowed a quick installation but with an impeccable aesthetic finish, to which Toffoletto and Cantieri Visentini are not willing to give up. The Navis solutions have in fact the advantage of reducing the weight of the product without affecting the mechanical stability and the final appearance of the insulation.
Following the philosophy of rapid installation and the lightness of the solutions, the Paroc Marine Fire Slab 40 G1 panel was chosen for the thermal insulation of bulkheads and decks. The soundproofing of the conditioning rooms and some areas was guaranteed by the consolidated LINK FLEXSTONE coupled panel, rock wool plus visco-elastic membrane.
Hypatia de Alejandria will therefore be an LNG triad that takes full advantage of the new technology of lightweight solutions with NAVIS materials from Paroc for the fire protection of decks and bulkheads in class A: a ferry in which we put ourselves to the test and, thanks to Paroc experience, we have followed the weight reduction requirements but at the same time leaving unchanged the other performances related to the workability of the panels to the quality of the aesthetic finishes.

In the world the availability of water is enormous, but only about 3% is represented by fresh water (ground and surface water) whose withdrawals increase progressively. In fact, the theme of a correct and efficient management of the water resource becomes a recurrent topic and in several sector studies: we can read that water is now considered a precious and increasingly "scarce" good. In the analysis of the asset-water, the reasoning on the water infrastructure that supports it and the consequent need for its efficiency, is fully part of it. The urban drainage system, made up as follows, consists of a complex network of pipes, mostly underground, installed to collect and dispose, away from civil and production settlements, rainwater or surface runoff and wastewater.
The meteoric runoff, cooling waters deriving from industrial activities, those for irrigation from gardens, parks and spring waters, are considered as white water. They flow into the sewers through urban drainage systems that intercept them while they flow, channeling them into the plumbing drainage system.
Link offers its customers a series of concave and flat grids, in cast iron, designed to collect and flow these waters. They are structured for the use of siphon, equipped with an innovative safety system with snap closure and compliant with EN124-1 / 2: 2015.
GSGEN grids:
- Group 3 - Class C250 starting from size 300x300 up to 700x700
- Group 4 - Class D400 starting from size 500x500 up to 700x700
Our drains have a system of constraint to the frame that uses rotation hinges, allowing the opening and, if necessary, the possible removal of the grids. They are also provided with elastic closing bars: a safety system that prevents accidental opening while allowing regular access for cleaning and maintenance of the collection facilities.
Our drains in class C250, in compliance with the Decree of the Ministry of Public Works, have loopholes with a width of less than mm. 20 for the safety of cycling traffic. The draining surface has been developed to be largely within the regulatory requirements and to favor the normal flow of water.
