Lindab will launch its new concept to simplify the installation of circular duct systems. The world debut will take place at the ISH fair in Frankfurt on 6 March 2007. The new system, called Lindab Safe Click, will be launched in Switzerland in April and throughout Lindab's other markets during 2007.

 

"Lindab's business concept is based upon simplified construction", says CEO, Kjell Åkesson. "Lindab Safe Click demonstrates our ability to generate creative solutions that give our customers real financial benefits. The whole installation procedure is made much simpler, meaning a reduction of total costs.

 

The new system does not require screws, rivets or special tools and is based on the successful, Lindab Safe, Lindab's leading ventilation system with rubber seals. Customer testing in four different countries has revealed Lindab Safe Click to cut installation times by half, compared with traditional duct systems. In addition, it offers ergonomic advantages thanks to improved working position while carrying out the installation without tools.

 

The system, which is compatible with Lindab's existing circular duct systems, has been developed by Lindab Ventilation's R & D centre in Grevie, southern Sweden.

 

Lindab will also be launching a new device at the ISH Fair, the SR Cutter, which allows for the cutting of ducts on the construction site, ergonomically and efficiently.

 

Both Lindab Safe Click and SR Cutter are protected by patent application.
