Glue fixing: technical developments in modern installations

Welcome to the new VM Group blog. In this first post, we want to take a closer look at a technology that is revolutionizing the way installations are conceived: adhesive fastening. Often underestimated compared to traditional mechanical methods, this system offers unique aesthetic and structural solutions.

Why choose adhesive fixing?

The transition from screws and dowels to high-performance adhesive systems is not just an aesthetic choice, but a technical decision based on concrete advantages:

• Load distribution: Unlike point fixings (screws), adhesive distributes tension across the entire surface, reducing stress on materials.

• Material integrity: There is no need to drill or damage surfaces, preserving waterproofing and aesthetic finish.

• Vibration absorption: Modern structural adhesives act as shock absorbers, improving the durability of the system over time.

• Clean aesthetics: No visible holes, no plugs, just the cleanliness of the original design.

Ideal applications

The VM Group adhesive fastening system is ideal for contexts where precision is essential, such as:

1. Ducting and clamping systems.

2. Installations on fragile or valuable materials (stoneware, glass, thin metals).

3. Environments subject to humidity where holes could cause leaks.

Conclusions

Relying on an adhesive fastening system means choosing innovation and speed of installation, without compromising on safety. At VM Group, we carefully select components to ensure certified and long-lasting adhesion.
