SCHLUTER EXPANDS DILEX-STF RANGE

..

Schlüter-Systems has introduced the Schlüter-DILEX-STF, a structural movement profile engineered to deliver long-lasting performance in both underground and overground applications. For projects and environments where durability, safety, and reliability are critical, the DILEX-STF sets a new benchmark for structural protection.

Designed to absorb both horizontal and vertical movement, the DILEX-STF ensures floor coverings remain intact when subject to movement in the structure. continuous foot traffic and heavy loads. This makes it suitable for areas with extensive foot and forklift traffic such as warehouses, airports, shopping centres, railway stations and anywhere floor surfaces are maintained with cleaning machines.

Maintenance free and made from aluminium, DILEX-STF is available in two widths and three heights, for flexible specification options, ensuring seamless integration into a broad range of project requirements. Key benefits of the range include:

• Suitable for both underground and overground applications

• Absorbs horizontal and vertical movement in the structure, protecting floor coverings

• Available in two widths and three heights for installation flexibility

• Ideal for areas with high footfall or heavy loads

• Long-lasting and maintenance-free solution. This latest addition to the Schlüter range ensures that specifiers and installers have a robust, future-proof option for safeguarding tile, stone and other floor coverings in demanding environments. eu.schluter.com/en-GB
