In
more than 25 years we have carried out a number of projects in the
offshore industry and have developed special UHPC systems for many of
our current customers.
The future for us started a few years ago in
UHPC development, in terms of UHPC material development for floating
offshore power generation, floating city constructions and coastal
protection. The UHPC materials are ready for use today. These materials
are far superior to all other materials.
