The presentation about “fire protection in interior fit-out” from Prof. Dipl.-Ing. Klaus Lang, Head of Research & Development, attracted great interest. Prof. Lang answered the current questions of the interested participants, amongst other things about the legal requirements concerning the fire protection in “necessary corridors”. He also explained the fire-resistance classes of plasterboard partitions according to DIN 4102/4 and presented the regulations about the fire-protective glazing in the partitions of “necessary corridors”.
Josef Bielmeier reported about “dry screeds in the world of subfloors”. He did not only clarify the necessary requirements for the use of dry screeds, but also emphasized the advantages for the specialized entrepreneurs and their consequential competence compared to planners and builders. Subsequently, the NORIT-products of Lindner GFT GmbH were presented in more detail.
After a short break, Dunja Morge (BIG) informed about the development and aims of the association. Especially the topic “apprenticeship in the dry construction industry” was not only welcomed by the participating students of the “Staatliche und kommunale berufliche Schulen Vilshofen an der Donau” (state and municipal vocational schools Vilshofen an der Donau).
As the last speaker, Ulrich Stahl, chairman of “Bundesverband Flächenheizungen und Flächenkühlungen e.V.” (Federal association for surface heating and cooling), questioned whether new business segments for the extension and construction industry, away from the heating construction industry, could develop out of it. This issue belonged to the topic “heating and cooling across extensive systems engineering”. In his opinion, the future trends are obviously located in nearly zero energy buildings and also in system providers, which enable planning, sales and installation being “from one source”.
After the official part of the BIG Impulse network meeting, the event ended, upon the invitation of Lindner GFT GmbH, with a guided tour through the brewery and a following snack at Schlossbräu Mariakirchen.
]]>The extensive dry construction works of this project focused in the corridor and office areas, conference and meeting rooms as well as the cafeteria. Approximately 8,500 sqm plasterboard walls and 5,600 sqm plasterboard ceilings with and without perforation have been used. In addition, there were various special works as for example the set-up of handrails, board counter and plasterboard chilled ceilings.
Furthermore, about 9,400 sqm of CAVOPEX hollow floor systems were installed. Thanks to numerous covering options, the system could meet the different requirements in the building.
]]>The key decision factors in favour of the Lindner Fire Protection ceiling system type LMD F30 TIPmotion® had been the quick, easy and toolless access to the ceiling void. Some hallways run at a slight incline, which required a constructive ceiling solution that ensures flawless function of the tip mechanism for every single ceiling element. An additional safety catch prevents the elements from sliding down the incline.
This Lindner Fire Protection Ceiling System does not only offer protection with a resistance class of F30 acc. to DIN 4102-2, it also improves the Media Academy´s acoustics through perforations. The hallwas are illuminated by its integrated luminaires type T38/20 for metal fire protection ceilings. A total of 65 of these specular louvre luminaires have been fitted with the ceilings. By choosing integrated lighting solutions by Lindner, it can be ensured that there are no differences in colour between the luminaire and the ceiling element, while typical interface-related problems such as tolerances or damages in assembly are avoided all together.

]]>Apart from Lindner wooden doors and hollow floor systems, various Plafotherm® heated/chilled ceilings have been installed in the building planned by the architects SOP. The dry lining works were also carried out. The office building certified by the German Sustainable Building Council (DGNB) has a rental area of approx. 10,000 sqm.
The sustainable concept comprises Plafotherm® heated/chilled ceilings which provide for high climate comfort, both in the representative entrance area and the bright office areas. For the extensive public areas, the client decided on the heated/chilled plasterboard ceiling Plafotherm® GK VarioFlex with efficient cooling. Instead of this, metal heated/chilled ceilings were chosen for the office areas. The flexible layouts allow for a large number of possible floor plans – thus, individual offices and open plan offices are included in the office area. Even after completion, the installed Plafotherm® B heated/ chilled post cap ceilings leave enough freedom to subsequently install a partition and to create new office solutions. Plafotherm® DS heated/chilled canopy ceilings were also used in the open office areas and provide for an ideal working atmosphere. Like this, the temperature control and illumination is exactly above the individual workstations and conference tables.
]]>The Lindner Group especially convinces as family-run company with family friendly working hour models, care for children and the free use of proper holiday houses as well as the social commitment beyond the site's and the company's doors. A wide range of further training offering internal career advancements and attractive special benefits like company cars ensure an outstanding long-lasting period of service and a strong solidarity within the Lindner Group.

]]>Lindner invites all BAU visitors to take a seat at the solid wooden tables of their brand-new exhibition booth for a conversation with one of the experienced product or sales managers. While enjoying Bavarian hospitality, guests will get an impression of how the company’s long-standing claim of ‘Building New Solutions’ is turned into practice through product inventions and project-specific solutions.
The appearance at the BAU 2017 will be rounded off by visual content from the new employer branding campaign of the family business from Lower Bavaria.
The aim of the new stand concept is to enable more interaction, allowing the staff on site to have more detailed conversations with visitors, and meet their needs in the process. This follows the basic orientation of Lindner Group, which seeks not only to offer high-quality, certified standardised systems, but also to create customised innovative solutions to meet the requirements of the customers.
]]>Our annual company party in Arnstorf is the perfect opportunity to offer theoretical and practical training for visitors from our international subsidiaries: products are being explained in detail, their attributes demonstrated at close range. The highlight of a workshop very often is a complete hands-on installation of a certain system. For employees working in sales, CAD or internal services, this practical experience enhances their understanding of the products, their applications and how they differ from other solutions.
The Product Management team for Ceiling Systems, for instance, held a workshop for commercial clerks from France, presenting the heated and chilled metal and plasterboard ceilings Plafotherm® B 100 and Plafotherm® GK HEKDA, respectively. In the process they did not only install a ceiling system but also gained insight into the hydraulic connection and the structure of regulation units, and even into soldering and pressing. Using essential tools, like a level, segmented bender and tube cutter, was part of the training, too.
At a different event, employees from Lindner USA had the opportunity to become more familiar with the extensive range of ceiling systems, including Post Cap, Hook-on and Expanded Metal. Particular attention was paid to the introduction and installation practice of the new Baffle ceiling, LMD-L 608.
]]>All diverse special-purpose constructions and customised fittings were manufactured by Lindner in its own joinery of the subsidiary Lindner Mobilier s.r.o. which is based in Slovakia. Customised material samples as well as prototypes or entire sample areas were constructed and realised upon request - always in order to combine aesthetics with functional requirements with regard to fire protection and sound insulation thanks to our professional know-how.

]]>Only 12 to 24 hours after tiling and jointing, the surface is ready to carry loads. A circumferential edge on every tile makes for a predefined alignment of the panels to a joint width of 3 mm. Furthermore, the cork acts as an acoustically effective decoupling from the substructure.
Be it for moving, change of tenants or other changes in the utilization of a space, the tiles can be removed quickly, without residue and without any damage to the building structure. In case a single tile is damaged, it can also be exchanged within mere minutes with no additional drying period: you simply uncover the tile, remove it, insert a new piece and refill in the joints.
DryMode is especially attractive for large, continuous areas, which are commonly found in office buildings, museums, educational establishments, atria and shopping centres. Here, the installation efficiency is absolutely unrivalled.
The DryMode laying method has already been used successfully in several projects. One of them was the multi-purpose complex Arabeska in Munich, where over 20,000 sqm of Lindner Hollow and Raised Floors have been installed in high-quality rental areas that house companies such as the Bosch branch BSH Household Appliances and the insurance group Swiss Re.
In one of the building parts, the NORTEC Raised Floors have been used as a substructure for the large-format tiles (1.2 m x 1.2 m) that were laid using the DryMode method. The outcome speaks for itself: extremely short installation without waiting time and a perfect result.
