VarioMax
Simple, economical and sustainable
VarioMax is a flexible, lightweight support system, assembled from only a few parts, that is used for the construction of precast floor slabs and in-situ concrete slabs. It comprises only three basic component types: prop, double beam and slide-in beam. VarioMax needs up to 50 % fewer props and components than for standard methods and reduces the labour requirement accordingly. The system excels by its low weight, straightforward handling and flexible adaptation to any layout.
VarioMax is fully compatible with MEVA props and shoring tower systems. The aluminium double and slide-in beams with their grid-free telescopic function are lightweight, durable and designed for heavy duty, making them more sustainable than H20 beams. Their powder-coated finish reduces concrete adhesion, which in turn allows prompt, resource-efficient cleaning.
