The Eltherington GPS is a folded geometric faced metal plank that is secretly fixed on the plank returns with our aluminium or polyamide clips.
This engineered system allows for a larger plank face and joint detail resulting in a striking and bespoke linear design.
The GPS is a bottom to top system when installed horizontally, meaning the install starts at the bottom of the elevation and each plank locks in to the clip below.
Our horizontal and vertical Hilti-Eurofox subframe will accommodate the planks being installed in any orientation whilst applying the same clip fixing method
