eberit Silent-db20 fulfils exist-

ing sound insulation require-

ments without difficulty, as

the sound insulation comes already

installed. The HDPE, mineral rein-

forced plastic lends the pipes and

fittings an increased weight, thus ef-

fectively reducing both their natural

vibration and the sound it generates.

Sound insulation ribs in the im-

pact zones further reduce noise de-

velopment. In addition, system pipe

brackets for wall fastening decouple

the drainage system acoustically

from both walls and ceilings, thus

preventing a transmission of solid-

borne sound.

Geberit Silent is suitable for

practically every type of building.

Branch fittings in the typical stack

dimensions are hydraulically

optimised. This allows for

greater loads and

even smaller

stack dimensions in some cases.

Pipes and fittings are available in di-

mensions from56mm to 160mm, i.e.

for all building types, fromresidential

houses to high-rise.

Economical and safe connec-

tion methods such as electrofusion

couplers achieve a comprehensive

tensile strength simply and safely,

e.g. for additional safety when laid

in concrete or with cramped instal-

lation conditions. Butt welding is

considered a traditional and safe

connection method on site or during

prefabrication. Cutting andmounting

is carried out without hazardous flex-

ing. Scrap pieces left over from pro-

cessing canbe reused as fitting pieces

or disposed of without difficulty.

Geberit products offer everything

a successful plumbing company

needs from a simple installation,

compliance with relevant standards

and economic efficiency.

The company’s products ensure

that building owners and architects

can depend on a high degree of reli-

ability, convenience and freedom

with regard to the planning and

placement of sanitary appliances

and cost-efficient, fast progress, not

only during renovation, but also in

new build.

Building drainage

systems

For practically all areas of

building drainage, Geberit

offers the appropriate so-

lutions – from optimised

fire protection and sound

insulation installation

residential developments

and uses through waste

anddrainage systems for high-

rise buildings, all the way to special

solutions for industrial, retail and

c o mm e r c i a l a p p l i c a t i o n s .

The Geberit Research and De-

v e l o pme n t d e pa r tme n t a n d

laboratories develop and test prod-

ucts and the company appreciates

feedback from customers.

Roof drainage systems

With the Geberit Pluvia roof outlet,

Geberit has revolutionised water

drainage from large roof areas. The

negative pressure technology of the

roof drainage system achieves a dis-

charge rate practically twice as great

as conventional waste and drainage

systems and simplifies the planning

of the entire system. This means that

large buildings are well-equipped for

increasingly frequent heavy rainfalls.

Floor drainage systems

With Geberit shower channels and

floor drains, Geberit ensures safe

drainage in the floor. As is the case

with all Geberit systems, the floor

drains also incorporate the hydraulic

know-how of Geberit, which offers

not only safe and rapid water drain-

age and simple cleaning, but also

protection against blockage. The

systems simplify the installation and

the construction of the floor.

Waste fittings and traps

Safe, reliable and with a high dis-

charge capacity: Geberit waste fit-

tings and traps close the gap between

sanitary equipment such as showers,

bathtubs, washbasins, WCs, kitchen

sinks, washing machines and dish-

washers. Geberit ensures that ev-

erything fits together in the building

installation.

The company was founded in

1874 and has built a reputation for

sustainability, innovation, quality and

reliability.
