Application
Grass element

The Almelo family company V.d. Bosch Beton is known in the market as an innovative company that constantly innovates in the use of raw materials. The collaboration with SQAPE to be the first on the Dutch market to make a product with the innovative SQAPE technology was therefore a logical step.

The cement-free grass element was produced in the conventional concrete plant in Almelo and meets the required performance levels. What is special about this grass element is that it has a much better environmental performance than regular cement-bound grass tiles from V.d.Bosch. Reduton®, as the new product line is called, is characterised by an extremely low CO2 footprint.

The province of Overijssel is the first to apply the sustainable grass element in its reconstruction project N331.

André Barendregt, director of Cementbouw Betonmortel: "In Zeewolde we have now produced road pavement with RaMaC, replacing the cement 100%.
