Concrete technology and materials research

Making concrete is part of BTE's very DNA. New technological developments occur at a rapid pace. We are working to develop concrete that can be produced in a qualitative and sustainable manner and which can easily be processed to make a wide range of products. ASCEM provides monitoring, support and consultancy services. This allows the BTE companies to delivered the quality that clients demand, improve product properties and satisfy the wishes of the market in myriad other ways.

Every day, ASCEM is standing by for the BTE companies to guarantee the production of concrete mortar. In the event of a calamity, ASCEM can provide assistance immediately. If there is a malfunction, the concrete technologists help to resolve the issue as soon as possible so the production process can continue unimpeded. Next, they will investigate the cause of the malfunction and present their recommendations on how to prevent the same issue in the future.

BTE has been making concrete for a very long time, using qualitative and familiar recipes and materials. We are convinced that the environmental impact of this process must and can be reduced. Sustainability is becoming an increasingly important factor for all BTE brands. This is also recorded in the company's vision for the future. We care about the environment. At the same time, we do not wish to compromise the core qualities of concrete: robust, safe and easily processable in different ways.

The market's demand for sustainable solutions is becoming stronger and more explicit. With the goal of developing more sustainable concrete, we are pushing the limits without negatively impacting the product performances. We use the knowledge and experience from the past to develop new possibilities for the future. One example is developing slimmer constructions that require less concrete. This is no easy task, since we do not wish to compromise the structures’ reliability and sturdiness.

ASCEM possesses a wealth of substantive expertise. For years, it has been conducting research into the composition of the optimal concrete mixture that brings together all requisite properties. Quality, sustainability, lifespan, reliability and environmental score are all important factors. In this manner, concrete technology and materials research are inextricably intertwined.
