Innoissaan osana erinomaisia tiimejä kestävän rakentamisen puolesta.
Yhdeksän betoniyritystä kokeilee villajauheen hyödyntämistä betonin valmistuksessa. Tavoitteena on pienentää betonin valmistuksen päästöjä, etsiä keinoja uudelleenkäyttää purkuvillaa sekä luoda uusia liiketoimintamahdollisuuksia. Uusia betonireseptejä lähtevät testaamaan Formconcrete, Lujabetoni Oy, VB-Betoni, Keko Geopolymeerit, Swerock, EcoUp Oyj, Parma Oy (a Consolis company), Rudus Oy sekä Rakennusbetoni ja Elementti Oy. Kokeilut ovat osa Helsingin kaupungin kiertotalousklusterin innovaatiohaastetta ja ne laitettiin käyntiin työpajassa Helsingin kaupungintalolla.

"Muotobetonituotteet luovat uudenlaista visuaalisuutta rakenteisiin, jotka monessa kohteessa ovat ympäristöä hallitsevia. Muoto elää valon vaikutuksesta, joten kohteesta saadaan päivänvalon mukaan vaihtuva, elävä kokonaisuus."

Article of Formconcrete is published 1.12. 2020 at CPI worldwide magazine's issue 6/2020 https://www.cpi-worldwide.com/images/cpi/flips/2020/6/en/index.html?#p=83
FORMCONCRETE AND RUDUS INTO COLLABORATION
Formconcrete and Rudus have started collaboration by offering Formconcrete models in Rudus’ infrastructure products portfolio. “We´ll start with producing Formconcrete models in our core product line, however later we can produce the surface structure of our retaining walls according customer wishes”says Jukka Latvala, the sales manager of Rudus infrastructure products.
Rudus Oy ja Muotobetoni Oy ovat aloittaneet yhteistyön, jonka myötä betonielementtien pintaan voidaan tuottaa kolmiulotteista kuviota. Ensimmäiseksi valmistusmenetelmää käytetään Ruduksella betonisten tukimuurien valmistuksessa.
Muotobetoni antaa lukuisia mahdollisuuksia tuottaa rakennettuun ympäristöön omaa identiteettiä. Lisäksi valmistusmenetelmä tuottaa erinomaisen pinnanlaadun, mikä parantaa sen kestävyyttä. Näin ollen Muotobetoni on myös ympäristöystävällinen valinta, koska se on tuotteena pitkäikäinen pohjoisen vaativissa olosuhteissa ja vähentää ympäristölle aiheutuvia kustannuksia.
