Did you know? Movement joints are critical in tile installations...
This Genesis Aluminium Heavy Duty Black Movement Joint is designed to provide outstanding flexibility, along with excellent resistance to chemicals and weathering. Its high tensile strength ensures long term durability, making it ideal for demanding environments.
Where should movement joints be used?
Movement joints are essential in tile installations to prevent tiles from debonding from the substrate.
- Industry guidelines recommend a maximum field size of 10 metres in each direction
- In practice, depending on the application, this is often reduced to 5 to 8 metres
- They must be installed directly above any changes in substrate or existing movement joints and gaps
If you are working on a project involving floor tiles that requires movement joints, we would love to show you the different Genesis Global Systems Limited solutions available and help you choose the right one.
