Peikko Group launches new floor joint system into European markets
In 2008, Peikko Group is launching a new, high quality floor joint system for the European concrete flooring markets. The new TERA Joint is a leave-in-place formwork system for industrial and commercial concrete floors, enabling fast and high quality production of concrete ground floor slabs.
Peikko Group has started to sell the product simultaneously in more than 20 European countries and during 2008 the company will establish production units in Finland, UK, Slovakia, and Germany to manufacture the product and meet our customers’ quality and delivery expectations.
The product is expected to generate major revenue by 2009.
“In a typical industrial or distribution building there are usually only two problem areas: the roof and the floor. The roof is always easy to fix without affecting operations, however, problems with the floor can be disastrous because it is always in use, usually 24 hours a day. TERA Joint addresses many of the issues that can cause problems and so ensures the highest quality, most durable floor possible for the entire life of the building. Peikko’s production and distribution network also meet the needs of the specialized flooring contractors for delivery time and service.” states Raimo Lehtinen, Managing Director of Peikko Group
