Catnic
Catnic has pioneered the steel lintel for more than three generations and
supply the construction market with quality, technically superior products,
backed by excellent service.
Lintel Benefits
Duplex Double Protection System Catnic lintels employ not one, but two methods
of protection against corrosion attack: Catnic’s unique, sophisticated
Duplex double protection system is additional to the Z275 galvanised steel
used in manufacture. This distinctive benefit is a core characteristic of
Catnic’s standard range of lintels, and is manufactured and supplied
at no extra cost to customers.
Built-in Damp Proof Course Many Catnic lintels have a built-in damp proof
course (DPC)*, which saves time in construction as no additional DPC is
necessary. This means the cavity is easy to clean without risking damage
to the damp proof course.
Built-in Plaster Key Built-in plaster key is a standard feature of many Catnic
lintels for easy installation, while the perforated design minimises cold
bridging for improved thermal insulation.
Insulated Core Catnic’s lintels feature integral insulation to maximise
thermal efficiency and minimise cold bridging.
