Trade Journals for the Concrete Industry

Vicat, a French cement manufacturer, supplies materials (cement, concrete, aggregates), products and services for the construction industry. In 2022, the Group crossed the boundaries then existing between the separate realms of concrete design and construction with its launch of Lithosys, a brand dedicated to 3D printing. Being a comprehensively usable and tailor-made product, this innovation has been illustrating the family-owned company's capacity for new developments. With Lithosys, the Vicat Group aims at becoming a major player in concrete 3D printing both on the French and international markets by investing € 2 million in a newly established company unit dedicated to production and R&D. To support the unit in the continual enhancement of this innovative technology, Vicat has selected Quadra, the French equipment manufacturer for the concrete industry and an expert in automated processes, as partner.
