TRUSTED SYSTEMS
Infill System
Infill walling fills the space between a building’s structural frame and floors. Typically non-load-bearing, these walls support cladding, brickwork, and other external finishes while withstanding wind loads. Steel-framed infill walls are lightweight, durable, and enhance the stability and overall structural performance of buildings.
Stand Alone System
Our stand-alone system provides comprehensive structural solutions utilising lightweight steel sections. It offers full design flexibility and fast-track construction for housing and apartments up to eight stories, using floating floor chipboard slabs or Lewis deck floors with screed finish for efficient, solid results.
Panellised System
Our prefabricated steel construction system is a top choice for clients seeking fast-track building solutions. By minimising on-site scaffolding and installation time, it reduces overall project costs and accelerates the return on investment. This efficient modular approach is ideal for modern residential, commercial, and multi-story building projects.
