More architectural flexibility with ATLANT® Composite Columns
The ATLANT® family consists of two products: ATLANT® and ATLANT® Strong Composite Columns. Both enable flexibility, architectural freedom, and maximal space. The close-to-invisible stronger composite column provides the highest resistance and slenderness, while the more standard composite column enables effective optimization. Both are available in three cross-section shapes—circular, square, and rectangular—in a wide range of sizes.
The standard column is composed of a tube, concrete, and a reinforcement cage. The stronger version consists of a tube, concrete, and a steel core. Both are based on the provisions of Eurocodes and calibrated with test results. In addition, designs based on the Swiss code and locally approved methods (VKF certificate) are available.
“For the German market, an aBG/abZ approval has just been issued by the renowned DIBt institute in Berlin. A type test will also be available and is currently being processed by DIBt,” explains Christian Gerke, Vice President, Sales of Peikko Group.

Slim floor structure and integrated fireproofing with DELTABEAM® Composite Beams
DELTABEAM® and DELTABEAM® Green are superior composite beams that enable slim floors in multi-story buildings of any type—low-rise or high-rise. The composite action between steel and concrete allows designing creative structures and large open spaces. Multiple fire tests have proven the product’s excellent fire resistance without any additional protection. Shallow design decreases the building’s floor-to-floor height and eliminates conflicts with the HVAC systems.
Quick and easy installation with prefabricated components reduces construction time and minimizes delays. Minimal propping or bracing is needed without compromising safety. The product is compatible with all general slab types, including timber, hollow-core, filigran, composite steel decking, trapezoidal steel decking, and cast-in-situ concrete slabs. Custom-made solutions match the floor height and enable height reduction. Profiles can be made 18–70 cm tall and up to 20 m long.

Brace elegantly with BESISTA® Tension and Compression Rod Systems
Complement the superior Peikko products mentioned above by employing the BESISTA® Tension and Compression Rod System for efficient bracing. Where Peikko products are usually the invisible force that supports the structure, BESISTA® is best when on display. With detailed aesthetics, it is the first choice for creating outstanding load-carrying connections.
The system and special elements are readily available in a wide range of sizes, for use in the smallest canopies or large sports stadiums and ambitious architectural projects. Recycled materials, enduring surface treatment, waste reduction, and a documented low carbon footprint ensure that BESISTA® is an all-around sustainable choice. It is ETA approved, CE marked, and type tested. It has been developed into an effective solution to minimize energy and resource use during manufacturing.
Ideal combinations for superior structures
Architects, project developers, and builders who choose Peikko products value exceptional design, efficient space utilization, and refined aesthetics. They also benefit from tailored solutions that meet stringent safety standards and certifications, all from a single trusted source. Combining DELTABEAM® Composite Beams, ATLANT® Composite Columns, and BESISTA® Tension and Compression Rod Systems creates not only visually striking structures but also highly functional spaces. These products seamlessly integrate to offer slender columns, slim floor profiles, and expansive ceiling spans, enhancing both visual appeal and versatility.
Christian Gerke concludes: “With these ideal combinations, ambitious architectural visions can be realized efficiently, sustainably, and beautifully, setting a new standard in construction quality.”
