Styrencret

STYRENCRET, is a material used as aggregate for making lightweight concrete, based on polystyrene beads expanded coated with an STC- STYRENCRET additive whose function is to ensure a good bond between the polystyrene beads and the cement paste and a obtaining a homogeneous distribution lightweight concrete with excellent thermo-acoustic properties.

ADVANTAGES:

• Weight reduction : can weigh up to a fifth of the weight of traditional concrete , as a result reducing sections of the structural elements.
• Excellent thermal properties.
• Excellent acoustic properties.
• Fireproof.
• Waterproof.
• Not Toxic.
• No transmitted vibration.
• Excelent impact resistance.
• Not attacked by rats, insects or mushrooms.
• It can be nailed, drilled, atornillar, and worked with traditional tools.

USES:

• Leveling floors and slabs: in buildings, houses room , reconstruction of buildings in which minimal increase in load leveling or filling of roofs ,firm required, etc.
• Compression layers: en sistemas de vigueta y bovedilla, losacero system coffer slab lightened with polystyrene or block, in systems with panels either polystyrene or polyurethane, etc.
• Precast concrete : < / span > slabs, walls , panels, slabs and block larger than common , but lighter and faster placement.
• Thermal and acoustic insulation : in all the work in where excellent thermal and acoustic properties as may be required if: refrigerators, in extreme climates buildings, hotels, hospitals.
• Remodeling existing buildings:buildingsin general where it is very important not to load more structures making it a considerable savings there is no need to reinforce the foundations or structures.
• Construction of marine works:makingfloating platforms ,docks, etc. It is excellent in elements that are in direct contact with moisture or salt water .
