Use of UHPC HT construction material in extreme fire temperatures

20 years ago we started as the only one in the world to use high temperature resistant HT UHPC in areas
up to 1200°C / 2192°F. We use this material under the most extreme wear and temperature conditions in industry. High temperature resistant UHPC HT can be used as construction material, radiation insulation, floor material, wear protection and corrosion protection.

We produce this material in several qualities as mortar, castable and shotcreate.

Constructions made from our UHPC HT material can withstand very high temperatures for a very long
time. Steel and concrete structures are protected in steel plants, power plants, offshore platforms, civil construtions, refinery, chemical plants etc. with UHPC HT material.

A few years ago we started to develop UHPC HT materials for architectural applications. Today residental housing constructions can be built for example to withstand wild fires and fire storms for long period of time. There are already the first companies that want to manufacture doors and window security systems from UHPC HT. If windows and doors were to be secured against high temperatures, a fire from outside would have no way of penetrating the house.

These high-temperature UHPC HT are also available with mixed thermal insulation.

In public buildings, escape routes, stairwells and supporting structures can be secured against fire and destruction. UHPC HT can be processed in the same way as normal concrete.

UHPC HT is not only extreme fire-resistant and thus protects life, UHPC HT has a very high load-bearing capacity, no water can penetrate UHPC HT constructions at flooding
situation, UHPC HT can be perfectly processed as a tilt-up and precast construction and is absolutely resistant to all types of fungi and termite infestation. UHPC HT has also been used in the military and in security technology for many years.
