06.04.2020 | NewsNo casualties. But there is something to think about
A fragment of a facade weighing about 5 tons collapsed on a busy pedestrian passage. It happened in Pilsen, Czech Republic. It is a great fortune that no one was injured as the incident happened early in the morning.
This incident was possible for several reasons:
- poor quality products;
- this system of facade insulation is not intended for multi-storey and high-rise construction;
- the design was carried out with gross errors;
- violation of technological processes of installation, etc.
Our Tips:
- use only time-tested insulation systems;
- use the services of design and installation specialists who are certified by the manufacturer of the insulation system;
- choose a comprehensive provider of insulation systems, not different suppliers of its individual elements.
