Dramix® steel fiber reinforced precast concrete element contains up to 50-75% less reinforcement in weight while having the same performance. This means they reduce CO2 emissions by up to 25-50% per project. In the long term,
the choice of concrete reinforcement also has an important impact on the quality and durability of precast elements. At the end of lifecycle of a precast element, Dramix® can be recovered by separating the steel fibers from the concrete by using a heavy crusher and a magnetic separator. The recovered material can be used in new steel production and some can be reused. The concrete can also be recycled to be used in new concrete
