Expansion Joints play a big role in the integrity of big structures. They're used to keep the expansion and contraction, of two adjoining building materials under control. They safely hold these parts together. They're also supposed to allow movement, while facing seismic activity or underground settlements.

Concrete and Metal structures can contract and expand, due to high and low temperatures. This causes cracks and damage to the asset. This is why there's a multitude of expansion joints. They're used in many different places, as per the need.

Along with the joints themselves, you also need a sturdy yet flexible sealant. These are used to fill the gap between expansion joints, and further reduce the chances of damage, due to expansion or contraction (for instance: compression seal, epoxy expansion seal, neoprene foam seal, etc). Similarly, Expansion Joint Cover Plates are used for covering floor surfaces using expansion joints, where necessary. This can be, for instance, for evening out the floor.

DSM System is a primary seal for deck expansion joints. Neoprene foam is a closed cell foam. It is a highly impenetrable for various materials. Hence, it proves to be a high quality seal. Works against water, air, and other liquids.

Backing rods are used in combination with sealants. Their purpose is to control the sealant's depth during installation. Backing rods ensure that just the right amount of sealant is utilized, for joints. This way we save the material from wastage, while also deterring any possibility of cohesive failure. 

Some examples of their uses, are shown below. You can easily see the various applications we have for these systems:

Flooring is the process of covering a sub-floor with, a permanent finishing material. Choosing a specific flooring solution is an important decision. You need to consider a number of things, for various environments and(/or) rooms. MBT offers various materials and flooring solutions, for your residential and commercial needs. These include Luxury Vinyl Tile, Rubber, PVC and more. One of these solutions is Wood Plastic Composite. This material is made, by the combination of wood fiber with plastic. It's also known as Parquet, or Parquet Boards. 

It's a fairly new product in the flooring business. Yet, WPC's an amazing option for light commercial applications, and residential areas. The fact that it's 100% reusable makes it the go-to for environmentalists. 

There are a few things that make WPC stand out. You can use wood, but WPC is better for the facts that:

- It doesn't corrode

- It's built to last

- It's made with recycled raw materials (and therefore better for the environment)

These are a few things that make it a great option for flooring (and possibly decking as well). It's also resistant against the absorption of water. This makes it a better alternative to wood, while retaining the look and texture.

Raised Flooring provides an flooring solution that's raised above a sub-floor. This makes room for cables and wiring to be setup in between them, with less hassle. They're installed at different heights, as per one's need. They also decrease installation costs of said wires and cables, due to less complexity. They're also used in data centers to cool equipment, by the passage of cold air beneath.

Artificial turf is basically an artificial grass surface. It can virtually be incorporated in all indoor and outdoor areas. It is ideal to use as an indoor floor covering and more commonly to replace outdoor organic grass. Traditionally, it was used in recreational facilities, like sports arenas or places that require grass. Today it's also used for residential and commercial purposes. Artificial turf stands up to heavy use, such as in sports, and requires no irrigation or trimming. Artificial turf is an excellent option in places where it is not possible to have natural grass growth. This is why more people are choosing an artificial turf over natural grass.

Polyurethane Flooring, is another unique flooring solution. It's usually applied on top of concrete floors as a finish, but can also be applied over most other existing floors. It's known for it's flexibility, shine, and resistance against select chemicals and liquids. Sometimes referred to as PU Flooring, this is also a great option for commercial and residential areas. These floors are many times firmer than wooden floors, laminate floors or tiles. Polyurethane is used as sports flooring systems well. With the combination of durability and performance, the polyurethane floor finishes are both seamless and aesthetically pleasing, as well as robust and tough. These are water tight floors, and are suitable for the environments and weather conditions of the UAE. 

Anti-Static Flooring offers protection against electrostatic discharge. This is useful for many industries. These floors lead electro-static discharge into the ground. This creates a safe environment for static-sensitive machinery and equipment. It's quite a norm in the electronics manufacturing industry and chemical processing sector, for these very reasons. These are comfortable, chemical resistant, flexible, and durable floors, which makes anti-static a great option for hospitals, communication centers, and computer rooms.

Carpet Flooring is great for the winter season, and cold climates. It offers thermal insulation, and feels warm in contrast to other floors. It's also more comfortable to sit and lie down upon. They're made with woven fiber, and are therefore able to provide a non-slip surface. Carpets come in a multitude of colors, and design patterns. This makes them quite a suitable material for both, formal and casual settings.
