New Perth Children’s Hospital

Granor were proud to recently work with Perth Children’s Hospital on their new building works where they made extensive use of Granor standard and heavy duty slipjoint. The slipjoint was modified to have extra movement capacity allowing widespread cost effective seismic isolation for this critical infrastructure asset.

Over more than 40 years GRANOR® has supplied nearly 1,000,000 lineal metres of Slipjoint to projects throughout Australasia, South-East Asia, the Far East, and Middle East. The current SJJ Series Slipjoint is the result of continuous development from the original Series “CC” introduced in 1972.

In the late 1990’s Granor extended the range with the introduction of Heavy Duty Slip Joint – capable of very high load capacities.

Both products comprise a stainless steel sheet sliding over greased PTFE faced elastomeric bearing strip and void-former polystyrene as part of the complete sealed module assemblies.
