Efficiency and sustainability are not just industry buzzwords – they’re essential drivers for success on every project. For highway contractors, structural engineers, and main contractors alike, finding a solution that minimizes downtime while reducing environmental impact is critical. That’s why our collaboration with LMS Highways has led to the development of a breakthrough product that’s setting new industry benchmarks.
Introducing a Game-Changing Innovation
Our latest innovation, Premcrete Highway FC, is a rapid-set, low-carbon concrete mix designed to revolutionize highway repairs. By leveraging advanced technology and sustainable practices, this product is tailored to meet the demanding needs of modern transport projects.
Here’s what it means for you:
-
Boosted Productivity:
Switching to Premcrete Highway FC has been proven to increase output by 33.5% per night during full-depth concrete bay replacements. This means faster project turnaround, reduced disruption, and more efficient use of your time and resources. -
Remarkable CO₂ Reductions:
-
Traditional cement produces around 668 kg/t of CO₂, whereas our innovative mix reduces this to 430 kg/t – a 35.6% decrease in carbon mass.
-
A detailed CO₂ analysis on the M20 project revealed that our rapid-set concrete not only cuts down emissions from the product itself but also reduces the total carbon footprint from fuel, water, waste, and supplier logistics.
-
Direct Benefits for Your Projects
For the professionals driving your projects, these advancements translate into tangible benefits:
-
Time Efficiency: Faster setting times mean projects can be completed quicker, ensuring that highways return to service with minimal delays.
-
Cost Savings: Reduced curing times and fewer instances of rework lower both labour and material costs, directly impacting your bottom line.
-
Sustainable Construction: Lowering the carbon footprint of your projects not only meets modern environmental standards but also reinforces your commitment to sustainable practices.
By addressing key industry challenges with a single, comprehensive solution, Premcrete Highway FC empowers you to deliver high-quality repairs without compromise.
