JOINT WINNERBetopro Emulsions

Ecoratio - Betopro Emulsions      

Betopro is a water-based emulsion used to prevent corrosion of steel moulds in precast plants. It is not flammable, has no smell and releases no harmful vapours, which have been shown to cause lung cancer and nerve and liver damage. Its inherent white colour makes it clearly visible and so reduces over application, and independent tests have shown it causes no skin irritations.

 

 

 

HIGH COMMENDATIONRoad-Pod

Aggregate Industries - Road-Pod     
Charcon Road-Pod is a patented, sustainable, cost-effective precast concrete modular system for use as a traffic and pedestrian refuge island. Constructed off-site, it is an alternative to traditional on-site construction of traffic islands that take up to three days to complete.

HIGH COMMENDATIONCore Bung

Beresford’s Flooring - Core Bung     
Core Bung is a quick, lightweight and simple system used to make the cores in hollowcore beams airtight, vastly reducing energy and heat loss and cutting sound transmission. To seal a core, the bung is pushed in, and a short burst of foam is injected through a hole. The foam is forced to the perimeter of the core, creating an airtight seal. The bung helps a structure comply with Part L and Part E of the building regulations.
