The system allows for either onsite or offsite assembly of the Plaswall™. In the case that the Client is still awaiting municipal approvals, we can go ahead and assemble the Plaswall™ units, so that when the time comes; we are ready to install the panels and start final assembly.

Studies have shown a 21 to 29% saving, on like for like projects. The system doesn’t require a specialised skillset, making it ideal to employ labour in the projects community.

It also makes projects in far off locations a lot simpler. Local labour can be trained onsite and in a short space of time.

The Plaswall™ system ties every panel into the previous and following panel. Effectively, every panel is an upstand beam, creating strength way beyond what a regular brick and mortar wall could ever offer. The strength can be further enhanced by the gauge of reinforcement utilised. A single story build would require a lot less steel than a 4 storey residential Block. The Concrete MPa will be ordered to suit the application.

The finish Plaswall™  product, by design, avoids many unnecessary steps used in regular building practices, to get to a finished product. There is minimal finishing once the concrete is poured. Finish options include; leaving it in its natural casted form, rhinolite, plaster, paint or cladded. 

Damp is a non issue, due to the assembly and construction process, and there will be no visible cracks after construction on the Plaswall™ system. Any movement will happen within the wall, and not on the wall surfaces. What this equates too, is longer periods between paint requirements. There will be no peeling of paint due to poor surface perp & damp;  or cracks to contend with down the line.

By its design, it would require a concerted effort for the walls to be skew. And in the unlikely situation where that might happen, the panels can be straightened prior to the pour. 

All hardware like doors, windows, stacking door gaps, etc are all done during the assembly phase of the panels. This creates less wastage and does away with lintels above the hardware.

The Plaswall™ unit has no monetary value once assembled. Theft would require stripping the reinforcement from the concrete which is highly unlikely to happen, due to the labour intensity required. It also cant be stolen & repurposed like palisade, clearvu or precast walls. Once in-situ, it would require demolition. This is a major consideration for free standing homes and developments, as theft is rife in the scrap metal market. 

A regular Plaswall™ panel, utilising lightweight concrete, has a 2 hour fire rating. After 2 hours of a concentrated flame of 1000 degrees celsius, the panel was still structurally sound, & merely required a slight resurfacing to be reinstated to its original status. 

The Fabtech Sterling has representation in various markets worldwide, where the system has been tested extensively for many years, and has been successful in taking on projects, that would not have come to light, if it were not for this advanced, lightweight building properties.
