Details

MAUDERLI AG has produced precasted construction elements from specially developed UHPFRC (ultra-high performance fiber construction material) for the first time. The products include slotted channels, kerbstones, siphon shafts, drainage channels, cable shafts, etc. With wall thicknesses 75 % thinner than conventional concrete elements, they have a significantly lower weight. This results in lower costs and emissions during installation/transportation. The UHPFRC elements are chemically resistant, ductile, abrasion-resistant, more durable and recyclable. MAUDERLI supplies them to the largest infrastructure projects in Switzerland and Europe.

The Jury‘s Statement

Many components used in infrastructure construction are heavy, resource-intensive, and generate significant emissions during manufacturing and transportation. With its custom-made components made from "Ultra-High-Performance Fiber-Reinforced Concrete" (UHPC), MAUDERLI AG presents a convincing solution that stands out for its reduced weight, recyclability, and impressive durability. The intelligent material composition and optimized production process enable a significant reduction in resource consumption and emissions while also simplifying handling on construction sites. This remarkable combination of sustainability, efficiency, and robustness distinguishes the project as a progressive development for contemporary construction practices.
