iCrete, a clean technology leader and the world's premier concrete technology company, announced recently the availability in North America, the Middle East, and the Far East of customized and patented high-strength concrete mixes designed for use by providers of precast and pre-stressed concrete. iCrete's new product family for the precast industry features speed in application and setting - optimizing faster, more efficient turnarounds for precast molds; exceptional reliability and workability - reducing surface defects and repairs; less cement - improving the environmental profile and lowering the carbon footprint of each project; thinner, stronger sections - offering a much wider range of engineering and architectural options; and lower costs - leveraging reductions in cement content and work hours. Juan Carlos Terroba, iCrete's chief executive officer, said: “We are now bringing to the precast market a proven technical breakthrough already in use for highly trafficked pavement and high rise structures. iCrete mixes and quality systems will revolutionize the precast methods used for construction of pre-fabricated buildings and industrial parks, as well as the building of major pipelines, sewers, bridges, roads, tunnels, and railways.” “We are projecting unprecedented precast and pre-stressed production savings per cubic yard, while improving workability.” __
