Global Construction Firm Halfenleviat Marks Century of Innovation

Behind every towering skyscraper, safely constructed tunnel, and reliably operating power plant lies an often overlooked but crucial component - the structural skeleton that ensures their stability. HALFEN-Leviat has established itself as a global leader in providing anchoring systems, rebar connections, and embedded solutions that form this essential infrastructure foundation.

The HALFEN brand, now a core component of Leviat Group, carries over a hundred years of expertise in construction connection technology. Throughout its history, HALFEN products have earned the trust of engineers and contractors worldwide through their exceptional quality and reliability. As part of Leviat, HALFEN combines its technical heritage with global engineering support and robust supply chain capabilities.

HALFEN's anchoring solutions create secure connections between structural elements, featuring high-load capacity anchors, anchor plates, and accessories. These systems facilitate reliable connections between steel and concrete structures or equipment installations, known for their durability and installation efficiency.

The rebar connection portfolio includes couplers, threaded connectors, and welding solutions that enhance concrete structure strength. These systems effectively transfer tension and compression forces, improving overall structural performance and longevity.

Precast into concrete before pouring, HALFEN's embedded solutions provide convenient connection points for structural steel, facades, and MEP installations. Their reliability and load-bearing capacity streamline construction while ensuring quality.

HALFEN solutions support diverse construction sectors:

• High-rise construction: Connecting steel frameworks, concrete cores, and curtain walls
• Infrastructure projects: Bridge bearings, tunnel linings, and rail installations
• Industrial facilities: Heavy equipment anchoring and corrosion-resistant connections
• Residential developments: Precast concrete connections and thermal break solutions

Notable implementations include the use of HALFEN FPA panel anchors and BRA parapet connectors in residential projects involving over 700 precast elements, along with thermal break connectors for balconies and pedestrian bridges.

The HALFEN HIT thermal break connectors represent a specialized solution for reducing thermal bridging in building envelopes. By incorporating insulating materials at connection points, these components:

• Minimize heat transfer through structural connections
• Improve energy efficiency and interior comfort
• Prevent condensation and moisture issues
• Maintain structural integrity while simplifying installation

These thermal break solutions find application across balcony connections, facade attachments, and structural penetrations in various building types.

Through Leviat's worldwide network, HALFEN delivers comprehensive technical assistance from design through construction. This integrated approach ensures compliance with regional standards while providing specialized engineering consultation for structural connections at every project phase.
