"Pioneering application" - the CeraWall S shower channel has been awarded the Innovation Award by the German Tile and Natural Stone Association

The CeraWall shower channel from Dallmer has already received numerous awards for its excellent design. And the Innovation Award 2015 given by the German Tile and Natural Stone Association (Fachverband Fliesen und Naturstein - FFN) is a particular honour. This award recognises products that "significantly influence the future use of natural stone and ceramic and open up pioneering application options in this construction sector".

It is also an impressive proof of quality in the HVAC sector.

This is the second time that the FFN, a member of the Central Association of the German Construction and Building Industry, has offered the 2015 Innovation Award. A total of 31 products were submitted for the competition and three of the winners were recently honoured in Fulda, Germany at the 17th Technical Expert Day, a key industry event. CeraWall from Dallmer received the special award for architecture.

High-calibre jury

CeraWall was selected by a jury that included top representatives of the tile industry; the chairmen of the three federal associations: Michael Zink, Federal Association of Tile Merchants, Michael Wester, Federal Association of Ceramic Tiles (manufacturer) and Karl-Hans KÖrner, German Tile and Natural Stone Association (builder). Chairman of the jury was Volker Bastian, CEO of Construction Management with the architects gmp Gerkan, Marg and Partner.  "Ultimately, and particularly within the context of the innovative further development of the tiling trade, the winners impressed us with their creative design approaches and the wide range of application options able to meet current technical demands" commented the jury: from the point of view of experienced professionals, CeraWall is practice-oriented, versatile and pioneering in its sector.

More exacting customer demands - factory-made quality

The tribute also mentioned that the front-of-wall installed CeraWall shower channel for level-access showers sets new standards for meeting the ever-increasing demands of today's customers. Thanks, among other things, to the following features: the integrated cross slope, which dispenses with the need for sloped side sections in the tiles. Installation with fewer joints possible when using large format tiles. Ideal for renovation projects, CeraWall offers accurate-to-the-millimetre installation and optional increased sound insulation in accordance with DIN 4109 and VDI 4100. The easy-access drain areas enable simple cleaning and maintenance. No need to stem open any walls for installation and overall, a significant reduction of the need for co-ordination between the various trades thanks to pre-finished partial assembly: HVAC installs the drain, tilers the channel. Simple and reliable integration in the wall and floor waterproofing. The water-bearing unit is fitted entirely above the bonded waterproofing. And finally: for the first time, long-term protection of the wall waterproofing due to factory-fitted self-adhesive S 3 safety tape with cut-resistant stainless steel mesh.

In short:

CeraWall makes a strong impression with its excellent design, outstanding quality and excellent practicality. Level-access, tiled showers with CeraWall have a future - both in public bathrooms/baths and in the residential sector.
