VARIOKIT is a civil engineering construction kit with standardized individual components. This increases utilization rates of the parts and reduces on-site material requirements. VARIOKIT is used in
• Tunnel construction, as a supporting structure for formwork carriages, using the cut-and-cover method
• Bridge building, for example:
- as cantilevered parapet carriage with optimized width of influence
- as brackets for steel composite structures.

With the VARIOKIT civil engineering construction kit, different constructions can be realised using the same system elements:

Brackets for steel composite structures, cantilevered parapet carriage as well as supporting structures in tunnel construction.

bauma 2007 – platform for the future

No growth without innovations - PERI has proved this often enough in the past. Numerous developments have been patented and are universally considered as trend-setting for the entire industry. Therefore, the goal for the future is to remain the leading technological player through constant innovations. For PERI this means: through practical problem solutions. Acting on the maxim "easier, faster, safer", PERI implements improvements on a daily basis, always with the aim of providing its customers with a competitive advantage.

At the bauma 2007 trade fair, which takes place from 23rd – 29th April in Munich, PERI will be presenting the results of this objective. The PERI stand in 2007 is around 50 % bigger than seen at bauma 2004, and in the region of 70,000 visitors are expected. In its own hall situated on the open-air area (F7, Block N 712), PERI is exhibiting a wide range of product and service innovations from formwork and scaffolding technology on the generously-sized 4,200 m² exhibition space - naturally, along with numerous technical improvements made to existing systems.

PERI was founded in 1969 and is today one of the leading providers of formwork and scaffolding systems. Along with the headquarters in Weißenhorn, Germany, the company has 45 international subsidiaries and 100 stock yards around the world. The company has over 4.500 employees of which 850 are engineers. 2006 revenues was around 920 million Euros.

Formwork in every shape and dimension – even faster with the new CNC system
June 16, 2014 - Visions of architects take shape with PERI Planned, formed, concreted – it is actually hard to believe that this procedure could ever function trouble-free in some cases of present-day abstract concrete structures. In its pursuit of uniqueness, architecture is becoming more and more ambitious. Parallel to this, the requirements of construction companies are likewise increasing. PERI, however, is keeping pace with this trend: with individual formwork solutions,
