Special Concretes

It contains dispersed fibers (steel, synthetic, glass or polypropylene) that act as secondary reinforcement.

• Where is it used: In industrial floors, shotcrete in tunnels and prefabricated elements.
• Advantage: Controls cracking from drying shrinkage and increases impact and tensile strength.

It is produced using lightweight aggregates (such as pumice or expanded perlite) instead of classic quarry gravel.

• Where is it used: For floor fillings, roof slopes (terraces) and restoration of old buildings to reduce dead loads.
• Advantage: It offers excellent thermal insulation and reduces the weight of the structure.

It is sprayed at high pressure onto a surface through a special nozzle.

• Where is it used: In slope supports, swimming pools, building reinforcements (jackets) and tunnels.
• Advantage: It does not require molds and offers immediate stabilization.

It has a high percentage of voids (lack of fine aggregates), allowing water to pass through it.

• Where is it used: In parking lots, sidewalks and squares for rainwater management (bioclimatic design).

Advantage: Αποτρέπει τις πλημμύρες και εμπλουτίζει τον υδροφόρο ορίζοντα.

Solidfill (often referred to as Interfill or Flowable Fill) is a special, low-strength, self-leveling concrete, used primarily as a fill material instead of soil or aggregates.

• Where is it used: For filling pipe trenches, creating slopes in floors and roofs, as well as for sealing underground voids without the need for compression.

Advantage: Its main advantage is that it flows and fills any void without mechanical compression (vibration), saving labor and time, while ensuring the absence of future subsidence.
