Today

Since 2004, more than 450 projects have been carried out in Germany and abroad.

DUCON is considered one of the thinnest and strongest concrete technologies, whether for load-bearing or reinforcing components, for waterproofing and seamless floor systems, or for earthquake and explosion protection. In addition, it is one of the most sustainable solutions because it is thin and lightweight and fulfills the entire life cycle (cradle-to-cradle).
