As a 2nd generation family business, the Austrian construction company Josef Lehner stands for sustainability and foresight. As part of the expansion of its capacities for larger construction projects, the company has now invested in a modern, partially automated double wall production facility at its headquarters in Amstetten.

Bernegger Group has a tradition of always thinking one step ahead – be it in the raw materials industry, the construction industry, or in environmental technology. The same is true as it enters the precast concrete industry. Since May 2022, double walls and prefabricated ceiling slabs for residential and commercial construction have been produced perfectly energy-neutrally in Dietach, Upper Austria.

Whether concrete products for gardening and landscaping or walls, beams and columns - the traditional company UNGLEHRT has been producing high-quality concrete parts for more than 100 years and also specializes in turnkey commercial and industrial construction. In order to further increase competitiveness and also to have answers to the increasing shortage of skilled manpower, the company has now invested in an automation of the existing precast concrete parts production at the plant location in Bad Grönenbach, Bavaria.

In the Iberian Peninsula, the share of industrial construction is less than 1%, compared to 45% in Central and Northern Europe in 2020. Against this background, Grupo Avintia, one of Spain's leading developers, has developed ÁVIT-A, an integral, industrialized construction system. Climate neutrality in the building process and sustainability in the housing sector are decisive milestones in 21st century.

Vladivostok is around 6,500 km from Moscow as the crow flies, Russia's gateway to the Pacific and an important hub on the Trans-Siberian Railway. Nevertheless, the development of population density in the Primorye region on the Sea of Japan is declining. Creating attractive housing is one of the state's main goals to counteract this. Support programmes and new housing projects by construction developers such as DNS-Development are an important first step.

Affordable living space, new architecture highlights, and high earthquake-resilience – the MOTUS construction system combines multiple advantages in one. In addition to solid and sandwich walls, in particular 3-dimensional hollow-core slabs in a variety of design types are the main feature of the new system structure. Uzbek construction company EGI relies on automated manufacturing processes and the know-how of German plant specialist Vollert in its construction system and industrial pre-production.

Based on a 5D-BIM solution and the highly automated industrial production of precast concrete elements, MyHome Group is accelerating the development of the trillion blue ocean market for prefabricated buildings in China. Shear walls and floor slabs are to create new affordable living space for the emerging region. In Jingzhou, in the south of Hubei Province, a mega precast concrete plant for the 21st century has now been built. The plant concept resembles a butterfly with two strong wings.

Starworth is one of the fastest growing construction companies in India with 18 residential projects and more than 15 years of expertise. The Provident Park Square construction project in Bangalore is now the first to rely entirely on precast concrete elements as a construction system. From October 2021, the new owners will be offered architecture and luxury in a unique residential environment.

Since 2009, the Hungarian Limelog Group has specialised in the transport of high-quality building materials, grain and oversized machines and precast concrete parts inside and outside of Hungary. Since 2011, the company has also been extremely successful in producing reinforced concrete columns and beams. With KOMBISTEP stair formwork and high-performance tilting tables from Vollert's special portfolio, the company is now expanding its stationary precast concrete production.

Finnish building materials specialist Rakenusbetoni- ja Elementti expands its capacities in production of serially pre-fabricated bathroom modules. High-performance room mould by concrete specialist Vollert ensure high-quality surfaces and watertight room cells. The bathroom installation takes place very quickly, since the electrical and sanitary devices are already pre-installed.

Forms, colours and surfaces become more and more modern; architecture turns increasingly diverse. At the same time, the capacities needed for building projects increase and the cost pressure is rising. The machine technology in precast concrete production must follow this trend. Modernisation is key in the Oschatz concrete plant.

The Chinese Baoye Group has built yet another precast concrete plant in Quzhou, 800 km southwest of Shanghai. Baoye will produce double walls and floor slabs of up to 700,000 square meters per year for mega-residential projects. At the heart is the latest plant technology from Vollert, a concrete plant specialist, while the focus is put on China’s hot topics, resource efficiency and environmental protection and prefab architecture as a sustainable building system.

Precast architecture is modern and different. Numerous building projects worldwide prove that. It now has very little to do with standards and norms. One of the long-standing leaders among the manufacturers of such precast elements is the concrete specialist bétons feidt from Luxembourg. Vollert technology plays a big part in this.

Bangalore’s Sobha Ltd. is among the fastest-growing backward integrated property developers in India with more than 360 construction projects completed. In 2015 Sobha set the next milestone in the company‘s history with the installation of the largest onsite precast plant in India in Bangalore with German technology by Vollert. The residential construction project Sobha Dream Acres is now the first construction project implemented that is fully based on prefabricated elements.

Belgian Cordeel Group is a nationally leading construction company. The general contractor implements diverse building projects, from exclusive apartment facilities to logistics or industrial parks, modern shopping malls, hospitals, schools or infrastructure projects such as bridges. With the new precast concrete plant in Temse, Cordeel has finally become one of the large key players in Europe.

Since the 1970s, Thailand has experienced a rapid economic boom. This path was cut in a much shorter period of time than in other countries like Taiwan or South Korea. And in spite of current political instability, the demand for real estate in the cities remains uninterrupted. Furthermore, rural regions are also being increasingly utilised for low-cost living space. The national construction industry in Thailand has recognised this and continues to invest in the most modern technology for precast concrete production, including the SCG Group.

With an area of 2,724,900 km², Kazakhstan is the ninth-largest country in the world. As a developing country with average economic growth of nearly 10 % (since 1999), Kazakhstan excels in central Asia and leaves most other countries in this region far behind. The economic development is also stimulating the building boom. The demand for property in the large cities has not let up in the last ten years and continues to develop progressively. This is simultaneously accompanied by the cost-effective production of precast concrete elements.

The Indian construction company Precast India Infrastructures Pvt Ltd. has responded to the high demand from the local construction industry for solid walls, solid floors and floor slabs by opening a new production plant. The state-of-the-art pallet circulation system in the city of Pune in Western India is designed for an hourly production capacity of up to 120 m² precast concrete parts. The production technology was supplied by the plant engineering specialist Vollert Anlagenbau from Germany. The plant has been planned to cater for further expansion at a later date, with the addition of further product lines such as double walls.
