Guaranteed safety system solutions for private and public areas.
ROMEX® SYSTEM GUARANTEE (RSG)
The ROMEX® SYSTEM GUARANTEE is a truly competitive advantage for every customer. ROMEX® is the first and only manufacturer in the field of paving stone and slab construction to offer such a guarantee to its customers. ROMEX® means security, especially for specialist companies, which today often provide a five-year guarantee on their construction services to their end customers according to the Civil Code (BGB).
The ROMEX® - BEDDING & JOINTING SYSTEMS have been used successfully in private as well as public areas for decades. When laid correctly, ROMEX® offers a SYSTEM GUARANTEE of up to 10 years, with a normative life expectancy (average life expectancy) of up to 50 years.
With the ROMEX® SYSTEM GUARANTEE, abbr. RSG, ROMEX® is the first manufacturer of paving & grouting systems to offer the building customers an additional guarantee beyond the statutory guarantee.
PRIVATE AREA
(Driveways / patio)
The private area includes paving and slab flooring around the house. These are primarily patios, paths and driveways. The compliant structure is subject to the requirements of the VOB and the ZTV road construction.
The use categories subdivide loads into three categories (N1 to N3) from pedestrian to car to occasional vehicle loads of up to 20 t gross vehicle weight.
Loads and weather conditions, especially frost and de-icing salt, are the challenges that the superstructure, stone and joint must face. ROMEX® provides its customers with the ROMEX® SYSTEM GUARANTEE the necessary safety assurance for a long-lasting, functional and beautiful paved surface.

For the bonded construction of paving and slab coverings within the usage categories 1–3 (N1/N2/N3) according to ZTV-Wegebau. For private areas (driveway, patio).
Usage category N1:
Accessible non-motor vehicle pavers outside areas of road traffic (eg. patios, garden paths, paths in the home garden area, seats in parks).
Minimum requirement for fastenings/surface covering: Minimum nominal thickness (stone height) = 20 mm
Usage category N2 & N3:
Accessible surface coverings for vehicles up to 3.5 t permissible gross weight outside areas of road traffic (eg garage access, car parking spaces) as well as occasional vehicle traffic up to 20 t permissible total weight with wheel loads ≤ 5 t outside of road traffic areas (eg. care, maintenance and emergency routes as well as fire brigade, garage and building driveways).
Minimum requirement for fastenings/surface covering: Minimum nominal thickness (stone height) = 80 mm
For the unbonded construction of paving stone and slab coverings within the usage categories 1–3 (N1/N2/N3) according to ZTV road construction. For private areas (driveway, patio).
Usage category N1:
Accessible non-motor vehicle pavers outside areas of road traffic (eg. patios, garden paths, paths in the home garden area, seats in parks).
Minimum requirement for fastenings/surface covering: Minimum nominal thickness (stone height) = 50 mm
Usage category N2 & N3:
Accessible surface fastenings for vehicles up to 3.5 t permissible gross weight outside areas of road traffic (eg. garage access, car parking spaces) as well as occasional vehicle traffic up to 20 t permissible total weight with wheel loads ≤ 5 t outside of road traffic areas (eg. care, maintenance and emergency routes as well as fire brigade, garage and building driveways).
Usage category N2
Minimum requirement for fastenings/surface covering: Minimum nominal thickness (stone height) = 60 mm
Usage category N3
Minimum requirement for fastenings/surface covering: Minimum nominal thickness (stone height) = 80 mm
PUBLIC AREAS
(Streets / paths / squares)
Public areas include paving stone and slab surfaces on roads, paths and squares. The compliant design is subject to the requirements of the VOB and the RStO 12. The load classes are subdivided according to loads, in equivalent 10-t axis transitions during the normative period of use. Starting with Bk 0.3 (300,000 equivalent 10-t axle transitions) to Bk 3.2 (3,200,000 equivalent 10-t axle transitions). In addition, exceptional situations are considered separately, such as bus stops, bus stations or roundabouts.
External influences from frost and de-icing salt, permanently high loads from torsional and shear forces, as well as from the use of sweeping machines or urban events, present major challenges that the superstructure, covering and joint have to withstand. We want to give architects, planners and builders the required assurance of a long-lasting surface.
With professional execution, according to the valid regulations, we guarantee with the systems ROMEX® SYSTEM BONDED-2-PUBLIC (bonded construction) and ROMEX® SYSTEM UNBONDED-2-PUBLIC (unbonded construction) a long-lasting covering, which can easily withstand all occurring influences and loads.
