Construction fasteners

Construction fasteners offer a wide range of solutions to support various building projects. The selection includes versatile products such as plaster mesh fasteners, joist hangers, angle brackets, post bases, perforated straps, concrete casting accessories, wires, nail plates and fork plates, as well as insulation fasteners.

Construction Fasteners – Overview
Construction fasteners are connection components that affect structural strength and are used to join or support timber structures, fasten insulation, or create light structures. They are critical for structural safety, rigidity, and load transfer.

ETA and CE Markings
Marking - Meaning for construction fasteners
ETA (European Technical Assessment) - Required if the fastener affects the load-bearing capacity or safety of the structure
CE marking - Indicates that the product meets the requirements of the EU Construction Products Regulation (CPR)
For example, on joist hangers, an ETA marking means they have tested load-bearing capacity and defined installation methods.
