Thinness, an ultra-light concrete pavilion made in collaboration with APTUM Architecture, stretches concrete to its thinnest and lightest proportions while maintaining structural integrity.
The installation uses its shape and CEMEX’s ResiliaTM concrete technology to create a freestanding structure with walls only 2 cm thick.

No, it is not corten steel. Actually is a special concrete we have developed that changes over time under the influence of atmospheric conditions.
How awesome is that!?

Micro-mobility devices -such as e-scooters- could greatly contribute to lowering Europe’s CO2 emissions and reduce urban traffic congestion.
The technology of our special magnetic concrete makes wireless charging more efficient, reliable, and economical, supporting a faster adoption of micro-mobility solutions.

“Engineering, too, owes its most useful materials to the achievements of chemists in identifying, separating, and transforming materials… the triumphs of engineering skill rest on a chemical foundation.”

Basic ingredients are used to make concrete, but extraordinary know-how, skills and passion brings soul into the recipe.

CURRENT,
a concrete pavilion that exists in a state of fluid and solid expression. Designed and built by architectural students during the 2017 European Architecture Students Assembly in Denmark and made possible thanks to CEMEX’s Pervia and Resilia’s technologies.

All set to go!
Throwback to one of our hands-on experiences with architectural students. In this occasion, the annual gathering for the 150 representatives of each EASA member country at INCM Madrid 2016.
We have really been missing those magical interactions!

Paper thin Concrete
During our workshops we invite students to explore, experiment and get inspired by the possibilities of concrete.
Both the process and outcomes are always fascinating!
What would you do with this ultra-thin concrete?

Porous permeable horizontal surfaces are not new, but having developed the technology for vertical applications opens a whole new world of possibilities.
Pervia technology for vertical applications, allowing circulation of rain and water.

"Even a brick wants to be something" said Louis Kahn.
At CEMEX Global R&D we accepted the challenge and combined latest material technology and computational intelligence to develop a new brick concept that not only wants but also does much more...
