Ancon, the UK’s leading manufacturer of stainless steel masonry support and restraint fixings, is to team-up with the country’s largest brick manufacturer, Ibstock, to present a range of sustainable and low energy construction solutions at this year’s Ecobuild exhibition, running 4 - 6 March 2014 at the ExCeL in London.

Due to be launched at the show is a new version of the company’s ultra-low thermal conductivity TeploTie, which features a stainless steel L-shaped upstand for connecting to steel, concrete or timber frames. This new tie will be displayed alongside the original TeploTie and other stainless steel wire ties from the company’s range of thermally efficient cavity wall ties.


Also on show will be Ancon’s range of thermally insulated connectors, designed to maintain structural integrity while minimising heat loss at balcony locations. Standard solutions are available for concrete-to-concrete, steel-to-concrete and steel-to-steel applications.

Other Ancon products on display will include thermal breaks for masonry support systems along with stainless steel bed joint reinforcement and windposts, which benefit from the same low thermal conductivity, 100% recyclability and long, maintenance-free service life.

Ancon technical experts will be on hand to discuss CE-compliant fixing systems for a full range of building types and designs.
