Our 450 patents have resulted in leading precast innovations in machines and technologies for producing extruded hollow-core slabs, sandwich walls and non-load bearing Acotec walls costs, higher profitability and better quality, whilst not compromising the requirements of a modern building.

“Our customers are in the precast business of floors, walls, frames and foundations - or even all three. With us you can choose from the widest portfolio of precast manufacturing solutions worldwide. This guarantees that you always get the smartest match for your needs. Sometimes it means renewal of a single machine. Sometimes a complete precast plant.”

Through decades of experience, Elematic have learnt about the

varying needs for capacity, automation and flexibility involved in the precast process. Based on these insights the company offer precast production lines in three different technology levels - SEMI, PRO and EDGE. “Our 450 patents have resulted in leading precast innovations in machines and technologies for producing extruded hollow-core slabs, sandwich walls and non-load bearing Acotec walls for example.”

than any other building solution. This is due to consistent high quality of industrially produced products. Precast minimises long term constructional issues such as structural and facade maintenance needs over the years.

Material handling is easier meaning that less scaffolding is needed, and the material can be combined with steel or utilised as a composite structure only. “With precast, logistics needs are minimal and it works in almost all environments. Precast floors, walls, frames and foundations are transported to a construction site ready-to-install. Logistics are arranged with just one delivery vehicle instead of several raw material transfers back and forth.� What’s more is that precast can
