Core Techonologies Core Technologies
ThermoCure is an eco-friendly and efficient curing technology that ensures both early strength and quality consistency of concrete structures.
By attaching a heat pad to steel or aluminum forms, the system utilizes electrical energy to uniformly heat the pad, transferring the heat directly to the form.
This process ensures stable curing regardless of external temperature conditions, making it particularly effective in colder climates or challenging environments.
Applications Applications
Civil engineering structures
- bridge foundations, decks, abutments, piers, girders, box culverts, tunnel linings, railroad slabs, and other infrastructure
Architectural structures
- apartments, houses, office buildings, and more
