4 | GM RAILING ® – GM WORLD OF COLOURS

GM WORLDS OF COLOUR 

EXPRESSIVE DESIGN 

Colour has an impact. A cool blue, a warm red or rather a 

fresh green – the choice of colour is of central importance 

in interior design. It essentially determines the atmosphere. 

Whether outside or inside, glass can be used to create 

permanent accents of colour. Quite discreet or powerfully 

luminous. Entire expanses, partial surfaces or with individual 

patterns. Glas Marte supplies hundreds of shades, applied 

by screen or roller printing or incorporated by way of 

coloured laminated glass films. 

Be inspired by the wide range of colours! 

GM WORLD OF COLOURS – GM RAILING ® | 5

SURFACE TREATMENT 

UNIQUE EFFECT 

Glass can be ultra-smooth But it doesn’t have to be. Glass Marte developed and 

refined various surface treatment options ranging from complex sandblasting to 

several types of printing to the production of to textured glass to the incorporation 

of the finest embroideries within the glass. 

When it comes to GM ICE-H ® , for example, glass material is detached from 

the surface, which leaves an interesting, uniquely broken surface structure with 

a cool, vibrant appearance. Translucent and reflective at the same time, the 

GM LAMIMARTEX ® Collection, where textile and glass merge into one.

GLASS TYPES 

SAFETY TESTED 

Place and purpose determine the type of glass used. As 

a processor and manufacturer, Glas Marte offers a wide 

range of glass types for this purpose: tempered, laminated 

and insulating glass from our own, controlled manufacturing 

as well as mirrors, ornamental glass, scratch resistant or 

shower glass to name but a few. 

As a customer you benefit not only from our many years of 

experience but also from the short distances between competent 

advice, ultra-modern production and proper delivery,

THE MECHANICALLY PERFECT MODULAR SOLUTIONS 

As a building material and design element, glass has long been a solid architectural fixture. However, 

glass balustrades are still a challenge for every planner, architect or structural engineer – not to 

mention their construction and assembly. GM RAILING ® has developed a perfect technical modular 

solution for these special requirements. 

GM RAILING ® impresses with its versatile application possibilities. Based on five basic systems – 

UNI, LEVEL U, MASSIVE U, PLAN, BENT and FRONT — we can provide a variety of solutions to fulfil 

nearly all requirements. GM Engineering will be pleased to assist you in the implementation of more 

sophisticated special solutions. 

THE MODULAR CONCEPT 

GM RAILING ® glass balustrades consist of a prefabricated glass construction module (glass + profile 

are firmly connected to each other at the factory and optimally supported) and a substructure perfectly 

matched to the construction. 

Assembly can be ideally integrated into a construction schedule due to the delivery of the glass 

construction module (glass + profile in a prefab module). The installation of the glass itself usually only 

takes place during the course of the completion work. The glass and all visible surfaces are therefore 

optimally protected against soiling and damage caused by the construction work in the final phase of 

the project.

ASSEMBLY IN 2 STEPS 

EASY AND FAST 

GM RAILING ® balustrade systems allow for linear bearings without the need for 

vertical columns due to prefabricated glass construction modules in conjunction 

with a substructure profile and a continuous handrail. 

The prefabricated glass construction modules are mounted in the substructure 

profiles, which are to be installed on-site, and screwed together using cylinder 

screws or special spacers. This screw connection allows for tolerance compensation 

of the vertical position at rail height. Due to the fixing in the mounting rail, 

no glass drillings are necessary. This reduces planning and assembly effort as 

well as costs. Systematisation can generate benefits across all areas.

GM RAILING ® UNI SIDE 

FOR LATERAL ASSEMBLY 

The substructure of GM RAILING ® UNI SIDE is specially designed to be 

laterally attached to the supporting structure. 

Particularly for designs involving ceilings, ramps and stairs, the shallow 

construction depth allows for well thought-out detailed planning that takes into 

account the often limited space available in the staircase area. One central 

advantage of the system is the easy fastening to very flat base superstructures 

on the glass railing. GM RAILING ® UNI SIDE thus makes it possible to implement 

an extremely wide range of detailed solutions, particularly indoors.

GM RAILING ® UNI PART 

FOR SEALING AND THERMAL INSULATION SYSTEMS 

The GM RAILING ® UNI PART series is designed to be mounted on the component 

edge. GM RAILING ® UNI PART is the excellent solution for highly 

insulated, energy-efficient areas of the building envelope such as roof terraces 

or balconies above living spaces. 

Due to the position on the edge of the component, the insulated components 

can be combined with the GM RAILING ® UNI PART glass railing in an architecturally 

appealing manner while reducing the disturbance to the heat-insulating 

building envelope to a minimum.

FOR MOUNTING ON CEILINGS WITH FLOOR 

STRUCTURE 

The substructure of GM RAILING ® UNI TOP is specially designed to be 

attached to the supporting structure from above. 

The cross section of the substructure allows a simple connection of the sealing 

and insulation levels to the glass railing due to the curved flank. The technical 

requirements for the waterproofing of terrace surfaces and other walkable 

external surfaces can thus be optimally planned and executed.

FOR INSTALLATION WITH EXPOSED CONCRETE 

The GM RAILING ® LEVEL U system is designed for applications in which the 

mounting unit for the glass railing is recessed in the floor surface — concrete. 

Only the relevant base and protruding glass itself are to be seen. 

The fall protection glazing protrudes from a groove in the floor. This is 

achieved by means of a special formwork profile, which has to be assembled 

before concreting. The constructive "inner workings" are only introduced after 

the formwork profile has been removed. 

For the GM RAILING ® LEVEL U system, the profile is removed from the concrete 

after the curing process. This procedure defines a clear geometry for the 

glass assembly.

GM RAILING ® PLAN 

FOR HIGHEST ARCHITECTURAL NEEDS 

The GM RAILING ® PLAN fastening concept is a railing fastening that uses 

clear and direct architectural vocabulary. It impresses due to its flush-mounting 

and is refined in its details. 

Glass is the only thing visible, without fail. 

What starts as glazing preventing falls at the railing merges flush with the construction 

at the contact point on the floor. The exterior glass area exceeds the 

floor and ceiling constructions and only ends at its intersection with the ceiling 

lying below. The mounts themselves cannot be seen, there are no protruding 

elements on the outside of the glass and there is no change in materials. The 

GM RAILING ® PLAN system is our premium product

GM RAILING ® BENT 

FOR BENT GLASS BALUSTRADES 

Glass balustrades for modern architecture. The greatest advantage of the 

GM RAILING ® BENT system is the systematisation of fastening and storage. 

The glass base, which is manufactured to the highest quality and remains 

consistent over all radii and bending shapes, permits systematic statics and 

therefore also allows for a substantially simplified certification procedure. 

Technical implementation solutions are developed to the highest level and 

optimally adapted to customer-specific requirements and situations. Depending 

on the strength of the curvature – bending radius – the static system of 

one-sided glass clamping becomes increasingly complex with a multitude of 

different stress situations and functional states. 

GM RAILING ® BENT has solved this task flexibly, safely and ingeniously 

simply.

GM RAILING ® FRONT 

FOR TRANSPARENT RAISING OF THE BALUSTRADE 

GM RAILING ® FRONT is designed for lateral mounting on the side facing 

the viewer, in a solid brick foundation or low wall above the cornice of a 

classical façade. 

The GM RAILING ® FRONT fixing concept is an elegant glass railing which 

creates transparent, weightless-appearing raised balustrades, technically 

perfected and of the highest quality. GM RAILING ® FRONT functions as a fall 

protection system and is an independent design element, which gives every 

building structure a touch of extravagance.

GM RAILING ® TEST CERTIFICATES 

PATENTED, TESTED 100-FOLD, INTERNATIONALLY ACCEPTED 

According to DIN 18008-4 - 6.1, the effects of damage to any parapet element (including the failure 

of end plates) must be proven. In case of failure of a parapet element, especially in the interaction 

of handrail and broken glass, this can best be demonstrated by experiments. 

Depending on the glass choice (VSG from 2x tempered safety glass or VSG 2x TVG or VSG 2x float 

glass) and film thickness, the results of breakage tests may vary drastically. The broken glass partially 

has a residual stability or residual supporting properties. Depending on the type of glass, this can 

have a positive or negative impact on the overall system. To date, no method is known to us, as to 

how the residual strength of broken glass can be conclusively demonstrated mathematically. For this 

reason, GM RAILING has performed hundreds of glass breakage tests with original components up to 

a single length of 4 m. 

In addition, we have static verifications for all series and a very large pool of permits for special 

situations or requirements. GM RAILING ® is also able to take your individual requirements into account 

thanks to a certified calculation program.

TESTING LAB 

GM RAILING ® GLASS BALUSTRADES HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED TO COUNTLESS TESTS. 

Fracture resistance, stability, load-bearing capacity, residual stability are just a few of the many parameters 

that we constantly monitor and test in our test laboratory. We are able to do so, in addition to a 

high level of expertise, due to the appropriate equipment of various testing facilities. 

In addition to the classic pendulum impact test, residual stability, fracture resistance, reaction to tensile 

and compressive loads and stability of brackets and suspension profiles are tested, recorded and 

logged with DKD-calibrated testing machines. 

GM RAILING ® is subjected to regular material and component tests by internal and external test centres.

GM RAILING ® CONSTRUCTION GUARD RAIL 

COMPREHENSIVE RANGE 

FOR ALL SYSTEMS 

Glas Marte has developed a special construction guardrail for all GM RAILING ® 

systems for the period between substructure and glass assembly. By using a 

temporary building solution, all dangerous work in the fall area is significantly 

reduced when installing glass to prevent falls. 

The construction handrail is delivered to the construction site together. Over the 

course of assembling the glass modules, the auxiliary railing is dismantled and 

taken back by GM RAILING ® . 

A late glass module assembly is the best protection against damage during the 

construction period. This also prevents the glass railings from needing to be 

cleaned again. 

Overview of the most important features

GM RAILING ® ACCESSORIES 

GM RAILING ® also offers additional products such as handrails and cover profiles in a wide range 

of designs and materials. Our development team is also happy to design individual special solutions. 

HANDRAILS 

GM RAILING ® offers a wide range of handrail variants. In addition to ground or polished stainless 

steel profiles we also offer wooden sheathing in various shapes and types of wood. Corner connections 

ensure exact aligning. 

As outlined in DIN 18008-4 - 6.1 – special proofs for category B glass parapets, GM RAILING ® 

handrails are able to transfer the rail loads to neighbouring elements, end posts or anchoring to the 

building in the event of complete failure of a parapet element. 

Product benefits: 

»» 

All verification according to DIN 18008-4 available. 

»» 

Due to the optimum glass clamping in the lower area, the handrail is mounted on the upper glass 

edge without having to align it.
