Polymer Concrete applied to prefabricated systems can withstand up to 30.2 MPa versus the 7-9 MPa that traditional concrete can withstand. Before breaking or cracking.
This material, thanks to its completely smooth, mirror-like surface, facilitates quick drainage of fluids. It additionally offers a zero water absorption index versus the 5 –10% of traditional concrete.
It is proven that polymer concrete is one of the most resistant materials to any type of chemical. This is because its components do not react to contact, thus avoiding separation or deformation of the product.
This material, unlike traditional ones, is not affected by the freezing-thawing cycles, thus avoiding the appearance of fissures or cracks and maintaining all physical properties intact.
Polymer Concrete, because it is a compound material, guarantees perfect preservation of surfaces without any perception of wear from use or the passage of time.
Thanks to its excellent mechanical properties, allows the manufacture of piecess with thin profile, which contributes to it's lightness . Lightness becomes economy by reducing the use of auxiliary means of transportation on site.
For its production by molds offers greater freedom for design. Pieces can adapt to the needs of each project and the approach of the architect. The lightness of the pieces offers a new architectural aesthetic concept for the facades of buildings.
