Why choose it

The anthracite matt finish provides a contemporary look that suits many interior styles. The frame is made from halogen-free thermoplastic, which is a consideration for projects where low smoke and toxicity are required. Its UV resistance helps prevent colour fading when exposed to sunlight, and the IK02 impact rating indicates a basic level of mechanical protection for everyday use.

Ideal use cases

• Residential installations where a modern, dark accent is desired
• Commercial buildings with flush-mounted wiring accessories
• Retrofit projects upgrading existing Merten System M installations
• Areas requiring halogen-free materials, such as public buildings

Good to know

The frame can be installed in either horizontal or vertical orientation, depending on the insert and the desired layout. It is designed for indoor use (IP20) and should be combined with a compatible Merten System M insert to complete the installation.
