MagFace System: Revolutionizing Ceramic and Stone Surface Installation with Magnetic Technology

The MagFace System represents a groundbreaking innovation in the world of ceramic flooring, cladding, and stone surfaces, offering a revolutionary solution to the installation process. Developed and patented by Bassi Group International Srl, an Italian company with over 25 years of experience in magnetic systems, this technology is now available under licensing agreements for businesses, importers, and distributors worldwide.

The Unique Magnetic Technology

What sets the MagFace System apart from all other installation methods is its unique magnetic technology, the only one of its kind in the world. This system is the thinnest dry installation method available, with a thickness of just 1 millimeter, making it incredibly compact and efficient. The MagFace System ensures a permanent magnetic bond, providing a vertical sliding resistance of 110 kg/m², which guarantees that the surfaces remain firmly in place even under intense pressure or stress.

Furthermore, this magnetic technology is highly versatile: it can be applied to any type of material, regardless of thickness or format. Whether the surface is small, large, or extra-large, the MagFace System is capable of accommodating all types, including massive slabs up to 160 x 320 cm. The system is also fully certified for use across various formats, offering peace of mind in terms of both safety and reliability.

How the MagFace System Works

The surfaces that have integrated the magnetic system with MagFace Technology are already ready for on-site installation at the construction site, showroom, or commercial area of destination, supplied with the MagFace installation kit. This means that the installer is provided with a complete set for dry magnetic installation and does not need to worry about anything else, unlike traditional installation systems.

The MagFace System guarantees better indoor air quality in the environments where it is applied, as it is free of VOCs (volatile organic compounds), formaldehyde, and other toxic substances. This contributes to creating a healthier environment for both the installer and the end user. In fact, the work of the installer becomes cleaner, healthier, and less strenuous, making the installation process simpler even for those with less experience in construction. Moreover, with this system, it is possible to install up to 20 square meters of surfaces per hour.

The MagFace System's base installation kit is used only during the first installation and is reusable infinitely for future installations, making it a cost-effective and sustainable solution.

The Advantages of Magnetic Dry Installation

1. Speed and Efficiency

One of the most significant benefits of the MagFace System is the speed at which it allows surfaces to be installed. Without the need for adhesives or mortar to dry, the process is drastically shortened. This is especially beneficial for large projects where time is of the essence, allowing for faster project turnaround.

2. Cleanliness and Sustainability

Unlike traditional adhesive or mortar-based installation, which can be messy and require additional clean-up, the magnetic installation process is clean, with no waste generated. Furthermore, the dry installation method eliminates the need for water-based products and significantly reduces installation time.

3. Flexibility and Reusability

The MagFace System provides unmatched flexibility. Surfaces installed using this system can be easily removed, repositioned, or even replaced if needed, without damaging the underlying structure. This makes it an ideal solution for areas where future renovations or updates may be necessary. This feature is especially valuable for businesses in commercial spaces or for customers looking for temporary or adaptive design solutions.

4. Improved Performance and Durability

The magnetic bond created by the system is incredibly strong and resilient, ensuring that surfaces remain securely in place even in high-traffic areas. The technology is designed to withstand environmental stresses such as temperature fluctuations and vibrations, making it suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.

Comparing Magnetic Installation to Traditional Methods

While magnetic dry installation offers significant advantages, it’s essential to consider how it compares to traditional methods such as adhesive/mortar-based installation and floating floors:

1. Adhesive and Mortar Installation

Traditional adhesive or mortar installation requires curing time, which can extend project timelines. Furthermore, adhesives and mortars often involve chemicals and can create harmful fumes. The curing process also leaves room for errors, such as uneven drying, which can affect the quality of the final installation. On the other hand, the MagFace System provides an instant, secure bond without the need for curing time, reducing the risk of installation errors and improving overall quality.

2. Floating Floors

Floating floors are popular due to their ease of installation, but they can suffer from long-term instability. These systems typically rely on interlocking planks or tiles, which can shift or warp over time. In contrast, the MagFace System ensures a stable and secure surface that is impervious to movement or shifting, offering a more permanent and reliable solution for flooring.

Challenges in Traditional Installation Methods

Despite the widespread use of adhesive, mortar, and floating floor systems, these methods present several challenges:

• Time Consumption: Adhesive and mortar installations require drying and curing time, leading to delays in the overall project timeline.
• Mess and Clean-Up: Mortar and adhesive installations can create a significant mess, requiring additional labor and resources to clean up.
• Environmental Impact: Many adhesives and mortars are made from chemicals that can contribute to environmental pollution, especially when disposed of improperly.
• Inflexibility: Once installed, surfaces with traditional methods are difficult to replace or adjust, limiting flexibility in the design process.

The MagFace System addresses these challenges directly, offering a cleaner, faster, and more sustainable installation solution.

Licensing the MagFace System

The opportunity to license the MagFace System represents an exciting chance to enter a new era of flooring and surface installation. By partnering with Bassi Group International, companies can offer their clients a cutting-edge technology that sets them apart from competitors. As a licensed user of the MagFace System, companies will have access to full technical support, training, and guidance, ensuring smooth integration into their product offerings.

The MagFace System is the present and future of residential, commercial, and public construction. It is an innovation focused on sustainability and on the speed, flexibility, and versatility that a dry magnetic installation system can offer. Designed as a complete and extremely simplified system, it is the only one guaranteed by a globally registered industrial patent.
