From the Production Hall to the Building Site
Locrete is produced in a precast production facility, then cut to the required lengths. A machine lifts the elements off the casting beds. Once palletized they are ready to deliver to the construction sites.
Column shuttering is used for retaining Locrete elements in place. After constructing the walls to the required height, columns are cast on site.
