Summary
A Swiss company has developed a high-early strength concrete of high durability and fully recyclable, suitable for any kind of construction use where quick project execution or concrete repair and rehabilitation is needed. The company is looking for construction companies as well as airports and road authorities that need rapid-hardening concrete all over the world. Commercial agreement with technical assistance and technical cooperation are offered to assure correct application of the concrete.
Description
In-depth knowledge of materials technology, the Swiss company develops and produces high-tech concretes that unite innovative material properties and modern manufacturing processes.
The main product of the company is a rapid-hardening cement, which is used to produce a high-early strength concrete that reaches the full loading capacity in less than two hours.
When the concrete is produced, two chemical admixtures are used (a superplasticizer and a retarder) to control the consistency and the open time of the concrete. The three-component system allows to obtain a concrete that, when fresh, behaves like a normal concrete, but when the hardening reaction starts, the strength gain is much quicker than that of a conventional concrete. Only two hours after setting the concrete reaches the full loading capacity.
Generally, this high early strength concrete is required when concrete pavements need to be repaired or for structural reinforcement and
maintenance to bridges and highways, in order to cause the least possible disruption to air and road traffic. Internationally, the company has specialized in overnight road and airport concrete pavement rehabilitation, allowing repair or reconstruct of infrastructures without disrupting traffic activities.
The company is looking for construction companies as well as public or private institutions, such as airports and road authorities that need high performance concrete and fast execution for their infrastructure projects.
The company offers a commercial agreement with technical assistance, remotely as well as locally, during all project phases to determine and test a precise and project-specific concrete mix design in order to guarantee the correct execution of the concrete production and placement. The local engineers will be trained to maintain project continuity and future maintenance. A cooperation agreement is also envisaged with partners looking for solutions or concrete mix-designs adapted to suit the requirements of specific projects or applications.
