GCC’s USD 49 billion concrete market to benefit from MAPEI’s innovations.
MAPEI, a global leader in the production of adhesives, sealants and chemical products for the construction sector, will introduce two new solutions at the Big 5 International Building & Construction Show 2013 taking place from November 25 to 28, 2013 at the World Trade Center in Dubai. MAPEI’s latest environment-friendly offerings are expected to boost GCC’s concrete market estimated at USD 49 billion , as sustainability continues to be a major trend within the construction sector.
To cater to the market demand, MAPEI will unveil its technological innovation that allows the complete recycling of the returned concrete from the job site to the batching plant within minutes. The second offering is shrinkage compensated thixotropic mortar for cortical restoration of concrete. A single layer of mortar at a variable thickness between 2 and 30 mm is sufficient for most restoration works.
Stefano Iannacone, Managing Director, IBS-MAPEI, said: “MAPEI has always invested heavily in R&D with the intention of developing environment-friendly construction materials for encouraging sustainable developments in the markets we serve. Our latest innovations deserve a credible platform for their official introduction into the market. The Big 5 Show, being a premier platform bringing together thought leaders from the global concrete industry, presents us with an ideal springboard.”
MAPEI is also the head partner of the International Concrete Sustainability Conference being held on November 26 and 27, 2013 at the Dubai World Trade Center. The conference will run alongside the Big 5 show. It presents networking opportunities and provides learning on the latest advances, technical knowledge, tools and solutions for sustainable concrete manufacturing, design
