HIGH PERFORMANCE CONCRETE – CRC

A new generation of balconies and galleries can now be achieved in a minimalistic and elegant design – as well as in new structural systems and optimized ways of transportation and installation.

The High Performance Concrete for balconies is patented under the name ”CRC” – Compact Reinforced Composite.

The CRC products are unique because they combine the free shape ability of concrete, the strength of steel and a higher durability than both steel and normal concrete. This makes CRC superior in very extreme environments where complex or slen-der shapes are requested and very special structural properties are required.
