42 APPOINTMENTS & COMPANY NEWS; STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS
A new brand identity and logo for Schöck S
chöck will have a new look from January 2021. Innovation has always been a key part of the company’s
philosophy and the new branding is intended to represent a more authoritative and contemporary look going into the new decade. The ‘Schöck seal’, represented by two interlocking brackets, combined with the use of upper-case type, symbolises even more strongly the promise of delivering reliable, consistent quality; at the same time maintaining strong relationships between the company, its customers and its employees. The strapline will continue to be: ‘Dependable by design’.
Schöck’s primary focus is on the
development of structural components that make a substantial contribution to building physics – minimising thermal bridges, preventing impact noise in buildings and reinforcement technology solutions. Mike Bucher, CEO of Schöck AG comments: “Schöck has developed very successfully over the last 30 years. Our company is now more innovative and international than ever – and we want to present this to the outside world.” The most striking feature of the new design

is the logo. The blue used in the logo is darker and becomes the leading brand colour and

Thermoblocks support CLT structure
The redevelopment of a primary school for Central Bedfordshire Council has included the specification of Marmox Thermoblocks to tackle the critical issue of thermal bridging around the building perimeter, as
well as beneath cross-walls to the main structure. The Senior Architectural Technologist on the project for ECD, John Heaney, explained: “There are other insulation products available on the market, but none with the micro concrete columns which provide high load carrying capacity within the Thermoblocks and are therefore ideal for use in relation to the higher weight of a CLT structure.”
