Another feather in the cap, winner of the Iconic Award 2022, the new LIGNOLOC wooden nail with a head continues to ride the wave of success. BECK’s ecological nail for exterior and interior applications was convincing in the “construction materials / nails” category.
Managing Director Christian Beck accepted the award on behalf of Raimund Beck KG: “It is such amazing news that Rat für Formgebung – German Design Council and its jury also deem LignoLoc as a potential gamechanger for the (timber) construction sector – like us! Our sincere Thank you to the Rat für Formgebung – German Design Council forrecognizing our work. Stefan Siemers,Michaela Beck and myself have received the award on behalf of the entire passionate and hard working team at BECK. We have a big dream and a clear mission – this award is another strong motivational boost to relentlessly continue to pursue our vision!”
The statement of the jury
LIGNOLOC wooden nails, collated for use in compressed air nail guns, permit the realisation of horizontal and vertical wood cladding completely out of wood. This results in metal-free facades, which not only support the requirements of the recycling industry in terms of disassembly and recyclability, but also reduce the wear on tools during grinding or sawing. A revolutionary, ecological attachment system using wood as a recyclable raw material. The wood is Central European beech and comes from sustainable FSC forestry, which consequently makes an important contribution to a sustainable transition in the building industry.
