Synthetic Products

Synthetic products play a major role in contemporary building construction, albeit not as a primary load-bearing material. A variety of products, particularly for fit-out purposes, are composed of synthetics. Also sealing compounds, like silicone sealants, or elastomeric sealing membranes are extensively used. The strongly diverging material properties which can be achieved with plastics open up a wide gamut of applications, among them also transparent materials like polycarbonates, bearings from PTFE, or insulating materials like rigid foams.
