Ok, so they’re not BRAND new, but
@Schlüter-Systems Ltd looking to expand both sizes and colours, to include the Trend line colours.
45degree fine detail profiles to protect mitred edges from 2.5mm all the way up to 12.5mm.
So I thought I’d try to get them some feedback.
I’d appreciate it if you’d complete the poll if nothing else
Cheers guys.

Obviously if you want to voice an opinion, please do.
Any and all feedback gratefully received.

I fully support the use of edge profiles in situations where knocks are likely - more commercial than domestic - even though it's nice to show off the filling and polishing skills as much as possible.

Where the Schluter range falls down though, is they've simply copied the existing finishes in their range (it appears).
Large format trends and finishes should have been considered more carefully.
What they have is nice, but I can't think if many tiles I have worked with that would look nice with them.

Totally agree Mark, and I did voice that opinion the other day, so hopefully it’ll be considered.
A colourmatch service would be very useful.

Hi Mark (Impish) and Marc (3_Fall), :D

Appreciate the feedback and have passed this back to the product management team for consideration.

In reference to the 3-way corner, its a question that has been asked of FINEC a few times and a solution is in works. We'll announce it around Cersaie.

Regards


Carl

My first impression with the smaller profiles for mosaic was that the bed thickness with mosaic is literally nothing, so the backing of the profile might be too much, for large format mitres etc, i think the market is probably in high end hotels and commercial situations. Not sure how the white shades vary amongst these thin porcelain ‘tiles’ but perhaps scanning the colours of the main ones and creating the trims in the exact shades may improve them. They are an innovative product that’s for sure.

Morning All,

If you'd like a sample pack of the FINEC, new JOLLY finishes and also the TRENDLINE range of profiles and finishes then please drop us a line [email protected] with your name and address and we'll send them out. If you so happen to add you t'shirt size then 'maybe' (definitely!) I'll get one added!

Once you see the finishes of the JOLLY, TRENDLINE range, which also includes FINEC we'd be interested in hearing your feedback.

Carl.

Many news presented by Schlüter-Systems on the occasion of the 36th edition of Cersaie. First of all a brand new stand! For the first time in the history of the Iserlohn company (Germany), the exhibition will not take place in the outdoor area, but in Hall 31 / A, stand A25, with an area of 200 square meters.
Among the many products that the company invites to get to know in person on the stand, even the new wall shelves, Schlüter-SHELF installable without having to drill the tiles and available in brushed stainless steel, aluminum and the colors of the Schlüter range TRENDLINE. Made in the elegant CURVE and FLORAL motifs, they are available in five versions to be installed as desired in both the bathroom and the kitchen.
Three different geometries are available for the "corner shelf" and 2 different sizes for the classic "linear wall shelf". The latter reflect the dimensions of the built-in Schlüter-KERDI-BOARD-N recessed niches and can therefore also be used as a separation shelf inside them.
The advantage and peculiarity of Schlüter-SHELF is that it can be installed at the same time as the ceramic tile is laid or at a later stage when the finished coating is laid. The shelves are in fact equipped with small 2 mm thick fixing wings that can easily be inserted into the joint between two tiles by simply engraving the stucco.
 
I really like the look of them, @Schlüter-Systems Ltd are they available in the U.K.

Hi Adey (and all),

The Schlüter-SHELF range will official launch at Cersaie and will be available in the UK from October. The range includes a number of different shapes, and options for design pattern along with finishes of stainless steel, aluminium and a number of the TRENDLINE colours. The solutions allow for installation within the tile bed, along with retrofit and KERDI-BOARD-N (niches) options.

If you're interested to see the complete range then drop me a DM or email [email protected] and we'll send you the literature.

Thanks

Carl
