Schwarz Project Campus
Innovative construction, reliable protection!
The modern Schwarz Project Campus with a total of 5,000 workplaces is being built on around 16 hectares in Bad Friedrichshall. The expansion joints in the underground car park pose a particular challenge in this large-scale project: they must absorb high loads and building movements and provide reliable sealing in the event of a fire. Our Rexpandit fire protection joint element ensures a secure seal and protects against fire, heat, and smoke for up to 120 minutes in the event of a fire.
Elbphilharmonie
Masterpiece of Modernism
Completed in 2016, this concert hall is one of the most important cultural monuments of modern architecture. Its unique architecture presented our fire protection experts with extraordinary challenges that had to be reliably overcome. The Elbphilharmonie is divided into different fire compartments to prevent the rapid spread of fire in the event of a fire. The Rex SG 300 joint cord seals the structurally necessary gaps in walls and ceilings. Depending on the design, it offers up to 180 minutes of protection against fire and smoke. This is vital time to evacuate the building.
Commerzbank
Aiming high – but still safe
259 metres high, the Commerzbank Tower in Frankfurt am Main is the tallest high-rise building in the European Union. The skyscraper not only serves as the bank's central location, but also houses important works of art that are protected by Litaflex-Vario joint elements in case of fire.
