Hoffmann Green Cement Technologies announces that it has signed an exclusive supply agreement with CAPREMIB, a highly-innovative player and specialist in designing precast concrete structures.

The CAPREMIB group, which has been established in the construction sector for the last 30 years, supplies an extensive range of products to the construction and civil engineering markets. Quality and innovation are the CAPREMIB group’s priorities. To stand out from its peers even more, it has chosen Hoffmann Green Cement Technologies to provide it with low-carbon-footprint cements in order to partially or entirely replace its supplies of traditional cement for a portion of the products it markets in France. This commercial partnership contract, which includes a volume commitment, concerns the production of precast acoustic screens combining wood and concrete using Hoffmann cements.

The CAPREMIB group has notably produced over 1000 elements of up to 11 meters in length and 9 metric t in weight for bleachers in the Roland Garros tennis stadium, as well as the girders for the future 6 ha (15 acre) maintenance and sidings site for line 14 of the Paris Metro within the framework of the Grand Paris Express rapid transit network. A specialist in the designing of precast concrete structures, the CAPREMIB group has also constructed the concrete structure of the 39-story DUO towers in the 13th district of Paris designed by Ateliers Jean Nouvel.

Julien Blanchard and David Hoffmann, co-founders of Hoffmann Green Cement Technologies, say: “We are delighted to have signed this contract with CAPREMIB, a highly-innovative player in the construction sector. This partnership follows months of technical tests, and will allow the CAPREMIB group to produce wood/concrete acoustic screens with a lower carbon footprint. Combining wood and concrete in the manufacturing of this type of product meets market expectations and illustrates our ability to continually increase the growing number of applications for our technologies”.
