Water & Sand are two of the most endangered resources in building construction today. Both in terms of cost & availability, the resources are precious and can contribute significantly to the construction process. Wienerberger, the global leaders in sustainable, green building materials introduces a revolutionary system \u2013 DRYFIX<\/strong>, that can drastically minimizeconsumption of water & sand during masonry construction resulting in huge savings in cost & time\u2026<\/strong><\/p>\n

In keeping with the tradition of introducing innovating building material solution, Wienerberger also introduces its latest brand of Fa\u00e7ade Product – ARGEMAX,<\/strong> to cater to Chennai\u2019s emerging construction market.<\/p>\n

Chennai, February 22, 2018: <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
Save Time, Save Cost & Save Water; reduced dependence on Sand<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

The new building regulations in place have made timely execution of projects vital and key for all builders thereby making it imperative for Builders to adopt cost-effective, innovative technology to achieve faster construction. Also, strict restrictions across the country on mining of sand for construction purposes to acute shortage of natural resources mainly water in large urban areas have created tremendous stress on the industry. Wienerberger\u2019s revolutionary Dryfix.System helps builders effectively address these issues by achieving the following:<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

    \n
  • Adopting best practices for speedy construction<\/li>\n
  • Drastic reduction in sand and water leading to<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Savings on labor and cost<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
    27,000 Liters of embodied water gets consumed for every square meter of built up area<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

     <\/p>\n

    The impact of Global warming is quite obvious as ground water is depleting faster than it can be replenished naturally. It is estimated that an average of 27,000 liters<\/strong> of embodied water gets consumed for every square meter of built up area<\/strong> of a building!<\/p>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Generally, during construction, the maximum water usage occurs during:<\/p>\n

      \n
    • Preparation of sand, cement mortar<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
      An average of 350 liters of water is consumed for every one meter of wall construction\u2026<\/strong><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n
        \n
      • Curing of walls before and after plastering<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Wienerberger has also launched Argemax Fa\u00e7ade Panels \u2013 a brand of high quality composite panels, ideal for all building types, from commercial to residential. The panels offer very high design flexibility to architects and are functionally superior to existing fa\u00e7ade options. Argemax composite fiber panels, offer an innovative alternative to contemporary fa\u00e7ade material with a wide range of color that will always inspire.The tiles have through and through color (full body).<\/p>\n

          These are large format panels which come in size of 3.05 x 1.22 mts and 2.5 x 1.22 mts and can be converted into any size using standard tools at site, thereby providing the architect with a plethora of uninhibited design choices. The panels are used as dry cladding and provide very high durability.<\/p>\n

          A common issue with general fa\u00e7ade material is, over time, they developwarpage or similar deformities that spoil the exterior appearance of the building and is very difficult to rectify. With Argemax fa\u00e7ade panels, there is zero warpage which ensures a life time of smooth finish and lasting perfection. The panels are very easy to install and are well suited for refurbishments of old buildings.<\/p>\n
