SPAX screws: Modern fastening technology at BAU 2025
SPAX is a German manufacturer of fasteners, in particular screws, which are used in various areas such as interior fittings, timber construction and decking. The company offers a wide range of products for various applications. SPAX attaches great importance to quality and engineering skill "Made in Germany".
The trend towards black screws: focus on aesthetics and functionality
Black screws, such as those offered by Blax from Spax, are setting new standards in fastening technology. The elegant, decorative look of the black surface has long been established in neighboring countries such as the Benelux countries and Scandinavia and is now also very popular in Germany, Austria and Switzerland. The trend towards this elegant design has grown particularly strongly in 2024. The combination of functionality and aesthetics makes black screws a popular element in modern construction.
Innovative applications in structural timber construction
The black screws from Spax are used in various application techniques to meet both visual and technical requirements. One example is the fixing of panels using screws with an extra small head, which have been specially developed for tongue and groove constructions. These prevent the battens from tearing and ensure a stable connection. For rhombus formwork, screws with a fixing thread and raised countersunk head are used, which blend almost invisibly into the façade. For classic floor slab formwork, Spax offers partially threaded screws with a CUT point, which enable reliable fastening of the boards.
Sustainability and innovation: stainless steel screws for long-lasting buildings
In addition to visual diversity, Spax focuses on sustainability. With new products such as fully threaded screws made of A2 and A4 stainless steel, a particularly long service life is guaranteed. These screws are ideal for stabilizing building supports and structures and contribute to lasting quality and safety. The trend towards durable materials also reflects the increasing awareness of sustainable construction. Products such as the plate head with partial thread or cylinder head screws underline Spax's claim to offer innovative and high-quality solutions for modern construction methods.
Conclusion: Black screws as a combination of design and function
Black screws combine aesthetics, functionality and sustainability in a unique way. Spax shows how versatile and advanced these products can be used in the construction industry. They are not only decorative elements, but also essential components that ensure stability and durability. Spax thus sets new standards in structural timber construction and offers solutions that meet the current requirements for modern and sustainable construction.
