Invisible Fixings
Luxury Finish
Boards clip directly onto the Grad® system removing any need for nails or screws leaving a sleek uninterupted finish.
Effortless Precision
The unique concept of pre-equipped rails ensures perfect alignment on every installation.
50% faster to install
Thanks to the Grad® system's innovative design, installation times are more than 50% faster than traditional decking, cladding and paving.
Easy to Learn
The easy to fit system means training is quick and easy and mistakes are minimised.
Longer Life
Engineered to warp less and survive longer in better condition due to improved ventilation and water management.
HEART OF THE SYSTEM
ALUMINIUM
The 6060 alloy used for Grad® rails has excellent mechanical properties for structural use, allowing the systems to be installed for decking and in façades, even in very exposed environments. This alloy also has a very good resistance to corrosion in outdoor environments near the seaside and in swimming pool areas.
INTERNAL RECYCLING OF SCRAP METAL
Thanks to its high recycling capacity, aluminium is a true energy asset and is integrated into the heart of the circular economy. Recycling is essential, so we apply the necessary sorting instructions to give new life to aluminium scrap.
RECYCLED & RECYCLABLE
Because it can be recycled over and over again, using recycled aluminium saves 95% of the energy and 70% of the water needed to produce primary aluminium. Since aluminium does not lose any of its qualities during the recycling process, this material makes it possible to approach our goal of zero waste in the long term.
ENVIRONMENT
We manufacture products whose recycling and reuse of materials minimizes our environmental footprint and preserves natural resources.
EUROPEAN PRODUCTION
THE GRAD® CLIP
Injected in-house from POLYOXYMETHYLENE (POM)
INVISIBLE FASTENING SYSTEM
The Grad® system is recognized as conforming to the requirements of DTU 41-2 (cladding) as well as to the requirements of DTU 51-4 (decking).
FULLY REMOVABLE
It is as easy to unclip a board as to clip it, thanks to keys developed to pass between two boards, and to insert between the aluminium rail and the lugs of the clips. The boards, clips and frame are not damaged, and everything is re-positionable without difficulty.
100% FRENCH PRODUCTION
All of our POM products are made in Alsace (Eastern France)
100% RECYCLABLE
RESISTANT
The Grad® system has been tested in labs (the Grad® lab and conformity labs) and, thanks to its high tensile strength, it can be used on buildings of 10 m and 28 m, even in areas that are highly exposed to wind.
RESOURCE EFFICIENCY
We have updated our injection moulding machines by replacing the energy-intensive hydraulic presses with low-consumption electric presses. In addition, air heaters have been installed in the injection moulding shop to heat the production area with the heat recovered from the cooling circuit of the injection moulding machines.
