Vario system is a universal approach for mounting a variety of façade materials, realized by selecting custom designed accessories. You can choose from the following Vario systems:
Vario Agrob Buchtal
The system is for mounting ceramic tiles Kera Twin K15/K18 of Agrob Buchtal and it is developed together with the leading German producer.
The system differs from the existing solutions because it has a main supporting profile which shape enables a precise fixing of the gap between adjacent tiles.
The system offers:
• easier fixing of the vertical gap between tiles by means of a main supporting vertical profiles with customized shape which prevents tiles’ movement in horizontal direction
• possibility to paint the visible part of the joint profile in color to match the color of the façade material
• improved protection against rainstorm
• easier and safer mounting of the adapters in tiles’ grooves by means of a specially designed polymer accessory (PA6 30GF), developed by ETEM which basic use is to align and position the aluminum hanger
• possibility for production of profiles for mounting of tiles in different heights on one profile
• possibility of production of the main supporting profiles in custom lengths from 186mm to over 4000 mm
• the both-side punched profile is the only solution for finishing of windows that are too close to the construction base (up to 50mm) and for coating of pillars
Façade material suitable for hanging
