CG TEC drives lightweight construction in the building industry
The use of fiber composites in the construction industry offers a sustainable and forward-looking alternative to conventional materials such as steel. These innovative materials not only help to reduce CO₂ emissions, but also enable more resource-efficient construction methods. In view of the fact that the construction industry is responsible for a significant proportion of global CO₂ emissions – particularly through the energy-intensive production of concrete – the use of such technologies is an important step towards a more environmentally friendly future.
Fiber composites impress with their high structural performance and low weight. They are corrosion-resistant, durable and low-maintenance, which significantly extends the service life of structures. They also offer unprecedented design freedom and the possibility of integrating new functionalities. These properties not only promote innovative building concepts, but also open up new aesthetic dimensions for the architecture of the future.
Cooperation drives environmentally friendly concrete reinforcement and lightweight construction
CG TEC Carbon und Glasfasertechnik GmbH is expanding its activities in the construction sector through a close cooperation with rothycon – CARBON BEWEHRUNG. Together, the two companies are driving forward the use of fiber composites in order to develop sustainable and resource-saving solutions for the construction industry. One highlight of this cooperation is the TEC BAR – an innovative reinforcing bar made of high-performance fibers that not only impresses with its corrosion resistance and durability, but also with its low weight and high tensile strength.
rothycon: More than just non-metallic reinforcement
rothycon brings far more than expertise in concrete reinforcement with non-metallic materials to this partnership. The company offers comprehensive support in the areas of project management, process optimization, automation and business consulting. In addition, rothycon takes on the development and management of testing programs and certifications – a decisive advantage for customers who want to implement new technologies quickly and efficiently.
With an extensive network of partners and manufacturers, rothycon acts as an interface between planners, construction companies and the industry. This unique combination of technical expertise, strategic project management and a strong network enables customers to implement complex projects smoothly while benefiting from the advantages of fiber composite technology.
Focus on sustainability and resource conservation
The benefits of this collaboration go beyond technical innovations: the use of fiber composites means that less concrete is required, which both conserves resources and reduces CO₂ emissions. The durability of the materials also minimizes maintenance costs and increases cost-effectiveness over the entire life cycle of a building.
Unique synergies for the construction industry
The partnership between CG TEC and rothycon combines technological innovation with comprehensive consulting expertise. Together, they set new standards for sustainable construction and offer customers tailor-made solutions for their individual requirements – from planning to implementation and certification.
With this strong alliance, CG TEC and rothycon are not only driving progress in the construction industry, but also making an important contribution to reducing the ecological footprint – a benefit for the company, the environment and society alike.
