With our high-performance UHPC products, we started
using sustainable products years ago. We are also
increasingly focusing on sustainability when it comes
to units for our UHPC binders.
One example is corundum, which we use as an aggregate,
among other things. Corundum can be produced as
synthetic corundum with very high energy consumption
or can be mined as natural corundum in open-cast mining.
We have chosen natural corundum for more than 15 years.
Together with our partner in Africa, we pay attention to a
nature-friendly mining and an equally nature-friendly
restoration of the surface areas. The natural corundum
mined by our partner has proven to be an almost perfect
unit for our UHPC over many hundreds of applications
in the offshore industry, architecture, wear protection
and security industry.
Another problematic aggregate of quartz sand, we can
completely replace today with desert sand, including
from Africa. The technical values of desert sand
concrete are far above the best standard concrete.
In our opinion, it is not necessary to destroy beaches
and rivers by sand mining. The cost of desert sand
mining is many times less than the predatory mining
of river sand or beach sand.
As far as the reinforcement systems or fiber systems
are concerned, nature offers us very sustainable
products that can be used in combination with
high-quality UHPC binder systems to create a perfect
sustainable product.
Our goal is always to produce UHPC binder systems
so flexibly that we can always use a high proportion
of local raw materials.
