ZTC West Shopping Center – Rijeka

Project description

The West Shopping Center is located on the coast of the city of Rijeka in Croatia. Its location hence allows a broad view to the Kvarner Bay and the nearby islands.
After several years of operating time, the existing expansion joints needed to be replaced and the investor went in search of the best solution.

The main requirement was to keep the time for installation as short as possible in order to assure that daily business would not be affected. Furthermore, the new expansion joints needed to offer good driving comfort, be 100 % water tight and noise emissions should be as low as possible.

mageba scope

With mageba’s flexible plug expansion joint POLYFLEX-ADVANCED PA60, the requirements of the client have been completely fulfilled.

The joint is based on elastic polymers and represents a new generation of flexible plug expansion joints. Besides quick installation (within 72 hours) for minimal traffic impact, further key advantages conviced the client to chose mageba’s products:

• improved driving comfort
• stopping and parking directly on joint possible without any damage
• no noise from crossing traffic since the surface is flush with adjacent road
• no maintenance in the future
• no obstacle or gap for pedestrians
