Gima

Euro-module Klinker


Euro-Module formats are made by Gima for the optometric modular coordination (in increments of 250 mm), in the deciraster (with 100 mm increments, also called EURO module) and in the office extension planning module (with 440 mm + 10 mm joint).

Planning in deciraster is simple, there are no complications. In the frequently used formats of 290/90/190 mm, and 390/90/190 mm, only 16.6 bricks, or 13.5 bricks per m² must be placed. In normal format this requires 50 bricks. The grout ratio is 50% less in comparison with the normal format, this means saving expensive facing mortar and a reduction of negative influences on the joint, which is considered the weak point of weathered facing brick work.

The middle format of the Euro-module is a contemporary building material and gives the facade a satisfying measuring division. The medium format of the Euro-module can be combined in complementary manner with glass, steel, and concrete.

The Euro-module bricks are non-flammable, frost resistant, abrasion resistant, UV resistant and pH resistant, which make the products ideal to use in hard climatic zones especially next to sea-shore and low temperatures areas.

The bricks are free from deleterious ingredients or blooming ingredients and don’t require any maintenance
