Precast and prefabricated solutions
solutions to address every construction challenge
Holcim offers decades of experience in designing, producing and engineering innovative precast concrete and prefabricated elements. Our solutions are suitable for all construction applications, including residential, commercial and infrastructure projects.
Efficient onsite assembly
Our precast and prefabricated offer ranges from traditional to innovative solutions, all of which greatly improve the efficiency of concrete projects.
Precast concrete is produced in a controlled factory environment. This enables more precise production and curing. It is then transported to the construction site, where it is lifted into place. Projects using precast typically finish faster, since work time onsite is reduced and fewer vehicles are needed to transport construction material.
Standard and engineered products – and everything in between
Holcim offers a broad range of standard and engineered prefabricated and precast products and solutions. Our standard offer includes concrete paving for landscaping, concrete masonry blocks for buildings and concrete pipes and culverts for water management. We also manufacture engineered architectural and structural elements such as columns and wall panels for buildings, tunnel liners, rail products and bridge solutions for infrastructure.
Precast and prefabricated solutions for all building applications
Explore the numerous benefits precast concrete has to offer:
- Safety
Prefabrication is done in a controlled environment with safety provisions throughout the entire production process. This requires fewer laborers, reducing traffic on surrounding roads and on the site - Efficiency
Precast solutions enable faster building, ensuring construction projects are completed on time - Sustainability
Precast makes optimal use of raw materials, minimizes waste and consumes less energy. It enables new material combinations, offering efficient solutions using fewer materials - Quality
Rigorous quality control increases overall construction quality and contributes to lifespan and durability - Labor
Precast makes the best use of the available skilled labor and simplifies onsite skillset requirements - Technology
Precast is well-suited for digital building models that integrate all elements before any work begins on site and for use of digital production solutions such as automation
