DKT3 System

Hidden mechanical fixing with staples at intervals along the groove on the edge of the piece

Projects designed to the last detail. To achieve continuous transparent pieces, the meeting points of windows and corners can be critical when making decisions about cutting pieces or when designing aesthetic and functional construction solutions.

Description

In the DKT3 system, pieces are fastened to the profile by hidden staples that are inserted at intervals along a continuous groove at the edge of the piece, which can end at 3 cm at each extreme, thereby improving the aesthetics and functionality of the lateral pieces. This system is fairly flexible, although there are certain dimensional limits, as a maximum the piece can be 70 cm on the vertical for the 12 mm thickness and 100 cm for the 20 mm thickness.

In cases that require a greater dimension on the vertical section, the 30 mm thickness should be used to counteract fatigue on the grooved part of the material from the anchoring. Dekton has this system certified for ventilated façades according to ETA 14/0413 and BBA 16/5346 for 12 mm and 20 mm thicknesses, although it can be used for other non-certified thicknesses.

DKT3 Projects

With Dekton, pieces can be cut to measure, fixing the vertical limit and allowing total flexibility on the horizontal, also guaranteeing a high resistance in the interval groove (≥ 670N) as this is an ultra-compacted material.

Unlike conventional ceramics, Dekton is designed and produced as a single form, with the same colouration and composition, making it suitable for more technically complex applications that require visible solutions without compromising on aesthetics.
