2 <strong>The</strong> <strong>Celcon</strong> <strong>Thin</strong>-<strong>Joint</strong> <strong>System</strong><br />

2<br />

In recent years, pressure from stakeholders within the industry<br />

including builders, developers, architects, end users and<br />

Government agencies, require manufacturers to increase both<br />

productivity and quality of build on site whilst retaining<br />

flexibility allowing buildings to be extended or improved.<br />

H+H <strong>Celcon</strong> prides itself on being at the forefront<br />

of innovative building technology, of which the<br />

<strong>Celcon</strong> <strong>Thin</strong>-<strong>Joint</strong> <strong>System</strong> is a prime example.<br />

speed, quality and<br />

flexibility<br />

Speed Productivity has become a key aspect in choosing a<br />

construction method. <strong>The</strong> <strong>Celcon</strong> <strong>Thin</strong>-<strong>Joint</strong> <strong>System</strong> allows<br />

construction times equivalent to off-site system-build solutions.<br />

This is possible due to the following benefits of the <strong>System</strong>:<br />

- Increased bond strength<br />

- No mortar ‘swimming’ allowing continued laying<br />

- Ease of mixing and laying mortar<br />

- Highly dimensionally accurate blocks<br />

- Ease of preparing/mixing small quantities<br />

when required<br />

Quality <strong>The</strong> improvements in build quality gained from<br />

the use of the <strong>Celcon</strong> <strong>Thin</strong>-<strong>Joint</strong> <strong>System</strong> are:<br />

-<br />

Improved thermal performance<br />

-<br />

Improved stability during construction<br />

-<br />

Improved build accuracy of finished walls<br />

Reduction of site wastage
