Quality in Elastic Sealing According to DIN Standards
Kleinbirken UG: Your experts for permanently elastic joint sealing.
Welcome to Kleinbirken UG, your reliable partner for permanently elastic joint sealing, silicone joints, and sealings in high-rise construction. Under the expert leadership of Peter, a master craftsman with lifelong experience and a passion for perfection, we offer you the highest quality and precision in every task.
Peter, the managing director of Kleinbirken UG, has a long history in the craft: "Handcrafting has always been a central part of my life. Even as a child, I helped my grandparents and parents with various manual tasks, which greatly influenced my later career choice." This deep-rooted connection to the craft led to the founding of a GbR in 2019 together with his mentor, Uwe Haferkamp, who brought over 30 years of expertise in high-rise construction joint sealing.
In 2022, Peter decided to leave Oldenburg in Lower Saxony and start his own company, Kleinbirken UG. His goal: to deliver craftsmanship with passion and precision at the highest level. "We are craftsmen who perform our work with dedication and enthusiasm," Peter emphasizes. This philosophy is reflected in every one of our projects.

Sealing ABC – Your Guide to Elastic Sealing
- A – Airing Time: The time after which a sealant can be applied following primer application.
- B – Construction Site Protocol: Documentation of sealing work for quality assurance and claims.
- C – Chemical Resistance: Sealant resistance to chemicals like cleaning agents and oils.
- D – Tensile Modulus (Module): Measure of the force exerted on bonding surfaces when the sealant is stretched.
- E – Energy Pass: Documents the energy balance of a building according to EnEV.
- F – Joint Dimensioning: Correct dimensioning is crucial for the performance and longevity of the joint.
- G – Warranty: Legal limitation period of 5 years for work services on buildings.
- H – Primer: Agent to improve sealant adhesion on various surfaces.
- I – Insulation Materials: Materials used in the joint to limit sealant thickness.
- J – Joint: Planned space between building elements that must compensate for movements.
- K – Cohesion Break/Crack: Material break within the sealant, often due to excessive movements or incorrect dimensioning.
- L – Light Fastness: Resistance of a sealant to color changes due to UV radiation.
