Translucent concrete is used in fine architecture as a façade material and for cladding of interior walls.
Translucent concrete walls.
Several ways of producing translucent concrete exist.
The unique properties of fiber optics allow you to see shadows and colors from one end of the fiber to the other despite the solid mass of the concrete.
The show effect comes at a price though.
The bonding material in transparent concrete may be able to transmit light by using clear resins the concrete mix.
Translucent concrete is used in facades interior walls and ornamentation.
Transparent concrete also called as translucent concrete or light transmitting concrete is achieved by replacing aggregates with transparent alternate materials.
In the spirit of a manufacturing company we still produce by hand in small quantities or on request all unique pieces tailored to our customers projects.
Use of optical fibers and fine concrete also used as transparent concrete.
Having the strength benefits aesthetical appeal versatility of concrete as you know but incorporating optical fibres in the manufacturing process allows daylight artificial light transmittance.
We produce low maintenance green walls and vertical gardens with effective sound absorption improving acoustics by noise reduction.
By incorporating fiber optic threads into the concrete blocks light is transmitted through the wall.
Translucent concrete combines the highest contrasting characteristics of light and concrete in spectacular fashion.
Light from one side to the other.
Transparent walls made of glass or polycarbonate are widely known.
Beginning as a start up of the rwth aachen university we now produce translucent concrete for international design and architectural projects.
Recent innovations however have brought translucent concrete to the forefront in new construction.
However they are much harder to find when made of concrete.
This results in a translucency and the light transmitting concrete begins to glow from inside.
Light transmitting concrete has also been applied to various design products.
The fibers are typically visible on both sides of the concrete and may be placed to create a pattern of light.
Concrete is traditionally a solid building material.
All are based on a fine grain concrete ca.
A highlight in interior and exterior design.
Translucent concrete can be used internally externally.
The quikrete companies largest manufacturer of packaged concrete in the united states and leader in the commercial building and home improvement industries.
Together we can add social economic and environmental values to your project.
95 and only 5 light conducting elements that are added during casting process.
Objects on the light source side of the concrete may appear as shadows on the other side.
Processed like natural stone coming as slabs it can be used for wall cladding facades floors or furniture.
