APPLICATIONS OF CONCRETE PAVING SLABS

What are large format concrete slabs?

With our steel moulds large, robust prefab paving slabs can be produced, similar to (but cheaper than) the well-known Stelcon industrial floor system. Slab sizes are standardised, creating a modular and easily reusable system that can withstand heavy loads. These concrete slabs are engineered to provide a fast, durable, and flexible temporary or semi-permanent paving solution for industrial and agricultural flooring and ground reinforcement. They are the ideal choice for covering large areas like industrial and construction sites, livestock farms, storage areas, workshops, warehouses, and agricultural and recycling facilities. They can be also found in material storage bays, bunker silos, silage pits, manure storage, temporary site surfacing etc.

The benefits of precast concrete slabs

Precast concrete paving slabs offer exceptional durability. They are able to resist high temperatures and heavy loads due to their dense and impermeable nature. These modular concrete slabs provide long-lasting strength, reducing the risk of the surface cracking under pressure. Drainage plays an important role in outdoor situations. The large concrete slabs can be perfectly combined with drainage gutters and sinks. This ensures good water management on large paved sites. Concrete slabs are a cost-effective solution, with low initial costs and minimal maintenance expenses. Damaged units are easy to replace, saving both time and money. Additionally, their prefabricated design simplifies installation, minimizing labour and time, ensuring swift completion of projects.

What can large paving slabs be used for?

Due to their durability and adaptability, large-format concrete paving slabs have a wide range of applications across various industries. Recognizing that not all projects have the same load-bearing requirements, we offer three different thickness options: 14 cm, 16 cm, and 25 cm. This range allows you to choose the thickness that best suits the intended application.

Agricultural Applications

Large paving slabs can be used in agricultural settings, serving as stable flooring for livestock housing, feedlots, or machinery storage areas, providing a reliable surface that can withstand the harsh conditions of farming. Semi-permanent roads in farmlands for transporting heavy agricultural machinery and trucks can be built quickly and easily using concrete slabs.

Commercial and Industrial Sites

Concrete paving slabs can be employed in the construction of commercial and industrial buildings, serving as a strong foundation for floors and driveways. These heavy-duty slabs are well-suited for industrial yards and provide a stable surface for heavy machinery and vehicles.

Landscaping Projects

The slabs can serve as a robust foundation for pathways, patios, outdoor seating areas, and residential gardens. Municipalities can use concrete slabs for various public infrastructure projects such as sidewalks, public parks, bike paths, and pedestrian walkways, providing longevity and minimizing maintenance requirements of these structures.
