Specifying sustainable building products
Lindab bases its business on sustainable, environmentally friendly systems in steel, focusing on minimising the use of raw materials, components, energy, packaging and transportation.
Although light in weight, Construline is strong, versatile and reliable and can be used for both load bearing and non load bearing applications - internal or external.
It is non combustible, rot and damp resistant and is impervious to insect attack or mould growth.
Produced in a range of specified pre-cut sizes and thicknesses, Construline is ideal for use with all proprietary plaster or insulation boards and panels with virtually no waste due to accuracy of manufacture.
Steel has in the past, not previously been considered for external stud walls, primarily due to its excellent conductivity - Construline 'S unique profiles and elongated slots greatly reduces the effects of cold bridging delivering comparable values to traditional timber stud work.
Quick and easy to install, Construline,when used for external wall applications, allows for rapid construction enabling the contractor to commence on internal work considerably sooner than with other systems, thus significantly reducing labour costs and build time.
A wide range of external facade cladding materials can be fixed to Construline including brick, wood, sheet metal, stone or rendering.
For internal wall applications, Lindab's Construline partition wall studs have all the features and benefits of the external wall system and when combined, offers the architect or specifier a unique 'one stop' product range suitable for a wide range of wall construction projects- from single homes and apartment blocks to hospitals and multi-story office developments.
Lindab provide a comprehensive technical support service and free, easy to use, DIMwall and DIMstud software packages which calculate load bearing and insulation values quickly and easily.
