Large Decortech removable ceiling panels installed by Legacy Construction at the entrance foyer to a personnel consultancy company. These large panels are MDF Multigroove 3/32 and paint finished fire safe MDF.
Using Fastmount means the fixings are concealed, yet the panels can be easily removed and replaced in any sequence time after time. Fastmount PC-F1 self tapping female and PC-M2H self tapping heavy duty male clips from the Standard range were used.
“With the challenge of complicated geometry ceiling panel application, Fastmount worked very well. I will definitely use Fastmount again”.

The Fastmount system has been used for the BVLGARI exposition to celebrate 125th anniversary for the luxury jewellery brand at the Gran Palais, Paris, France from 10 December to 12 January 2011.
The BVLGARI structures comprise a series of fifteen 8.5 metre high pyramid shapes constructed to replicate complex diamond cuts. Designed by leading French designer Fabien Iliou and developed by Eng. Mauro Quintarelli with the collaboration of Eng. Sonia Adiutori
Using Fastmount panel mounting systems, the mirror finish panels are positioned below the Gran Palais glass roof to create special light effects on the diamond like structures.
Responsible for the BVLGARI installation, were Italians Massimiliano Clarizio, Director, C.M. Wood S.r.l. Italy and Claudio Cardoni, Director, Green Allestimenti S.r.l. Italy. C.M. Wood identified Fastmount panel mounting systems as the ideal solution, for panel mounting.

Made from the finest Carrara marble, the exterior is perfectly flush.
As the Project Manager for the installation Pierre Frey identified the Fastmount system as the perfect exterior cladding solution for assembling the double curved lightweight statuario marble panels on top of the fiberglass shell. It provided perfect alignment and a flush finish.
Frey, is a specialist in marble installations and typically works in the marine and architecture sectors. With over 10 years experience, his clients include luxury hotels, villas, concept projects, Amels, De Vries Feadship, Heesen, Oceanco & Royal Huisman.
"I chose to use Fastmount because I wanted my shield shaped panels to be removable," says Frey.
Long bolts were welded on a metal plate and screwed into the shell. Then long nuts were used with Center Point Inserts to mark the honeycomb support to the marble panel and drilled to fit the Fastmount self tapping female clips (PC-F1).
"It was then a kid's trick to adapt the self tapping male clip (PC-M2H) at the end of the long nut. Using three, four or five devices for each panel, you could regulate the height of the panels in relation to the shell so the final result would be perfectly flush between 80 (eighty) pieces of cladding the final product", says Frey.
"No doubt I would use Fastmount again because the clips worked perfectly. The possibility to remove or replace the (marble) panels is both a quality and an advantage", adds Frey.
The interior of the mobile unit can be configured according to the requirements and the number of inhabitants. Powered by the rooftop solar panels, the latest in lighting, video and music technologies has been incorporated.
