Options That Save Your Project

A recent collaboration with Icon Co on a landmark construction project showcases Allfasteners’ unparalleled expertise and commitment to superior engineering solutions. This is not just a story of construction but a narrative on how choosing beyond the default can significantly enhance project outcomes in both time and cost.

Why Choosing The Default Hurts Your Project’s Bottom Line

The construction industry is at a crossroads where the choice between traditional, well-known brands and innovative, flexible solutions can make or break a project’s bottom line. The decision to stick with the default often comes with hidden costs, not just in dollars but in missed opportunities for innovation and efficiency.

Allfasteners focuses on solving these problems, eliminating the constraints often imposed by increased costs, a lack of innovation, and reduced support synonymous with established brands. We achieve this through tiered pricing, quality-certified fasteners comparable or superior to competitor products, and cutting-edge engineering support with AFOS Anchor Design Software.

Confronted with the intricate task of installing windows and facades on a substantial structure, Icon Co discovered that Allfasteners’ extensive suite of solutions perfectly aligned with their project needs. Transitioning beyond the confines of conventional industry standards, Allfasteners distinguished itself by marrying competitive pricing with exceptional technical support.

Challenging Traditional Design

For Icon Co’s window and facade installation, three primary anchors were specified in the designs through a collaboration between Allfasteners and Icon Co’s engineers.

The SAHS, a marine-grade stainless-steel concrete screw-anchor, offered superior corrosion resistance and longevity. Moreover, its case-hardened carbon steel tip provides effortless threading into concrete, ensuring a fast and secure fix.

In situations requiring resistance to seismic activity, the XSAHS excelled. A concrete screw-anchor made of 316 stainless steel, this versatile anchor accommodates moderate to heavy loads and offers multiple embedment depths.

Finally, the SAHG, a concrete screw-anchor designed for both temporary and permanent anchoring, proved its worth. With a serrated hex flange head providing increased clamping force and resistance to vibration, it was particularly suited for close-to-edge or close-to-anchor fixing.

Results To Define Success

Allfasteners’ role in Icon Co’s project exceeds typical expectations, blending innovative anchoring solutions with unmatched engineering support to set new benchmarks in construction efficiency and cost management. This partnership demonstrated how technical excellence and strategic resource allocation can significantly lower budgets without compromising quality.

Leveraging Allfasteners’ engineering department, engineering tools like AFOS, and cutting-edge products like the SAHS, XSAHS2, and SAHG, the project not only achieved substantial savings but also showcased the tangible benefits of prioritising innovation over conventional options.

In essence, Allfasteners isn’t just supplying superior fastening solutions; it’s driving the construction industry forward by embedding innovation, efficiency, and comprehensive engineering support at the heart of every project.
