Optimize your construction projects with Lightweight Concrete Solutions. With our products, you will find it easier to construct buildings and structures while extending your bottom line. Expand your options, save on production costs, and improve your operations with our innovative concrete products.
Thanks to our ongoing research and development efforts, we have created a construction material that will revolutionize the construction industry. Shotcrete is a high-quality concrete that is as strong as it is versatile. It is a lightweight material which can be utilized for a variety of projects, including the construction of dams, high-rises, and tunneling.
Our structural concrete has a variety of benefits, thanks to its reduced mass compared to traditional concrete products. The lower mass and density results in a variety of benefits including fast curing times and reduced construction costs. On top of that, shotcrete retains its strength and durability. All in all, our structural shotcrete allows you to do more with less, and at a fraction of the concrete cost.
Another advantage of our pumpable, lightweight concrete is its impact on the environment. We source and manufacture our construction materials using environmentally responsible methods. As a result, we have developed a product which has a reduced carbon footprint. By utilizing this material, you will satisfy your clients’ request for an environmentally sound structure that retains its strength and durability.
All test samples come directly from mixes batched in Ready Mix trucks. This includes prisms used for linear shrinkage and cylinders used for Rapid Chloride Permeability, as well as grout cubes for compressive strength.
Alkali-Aggregate Reactivity Prisms and Micro-Deval samples were produced and tested in EXP Services Inc.’s lab.
No other lightweight material stacks up our superior quality. We outperform in weight reduction and strength, and our product can be used in the same applications as conventional concrete. Minimal specialized handling and no issues with pumping make it as easy as batch and go.
