Mixture Optimization
Concrete products are defined in application by their technical performance characteristics as well as their optical appearance. The performance and constancy of these characteristics are determined on a large scale by the concretes' mixing composition.
Objectives
- Savings of cost-intensive materials
- Cost-benefit optimization for feedstock
- Reduction of expenditure in manufacturing
- Decrease of specific manpower utilization
- Higher degree of utilization of the production plants
- Production with a more positive CO2-balance
- Improved functionality of the products
- Higher long-life cycles and better sustainability of the products
Concrete achievements
- Up to 25% reduction of cement consumption at the same product quality
- Up to 30% improvement of the products' technological characteristics at same or smaller costs
- Up to 60% reduction of the variation of product properties
- Up to 50% reduction of rejection and/or the complaint rate
