Pipes
Pipes
Not only will Nu-Rock pipes be more lighter, durable and stronger than concrete pipes, they will be 100% sustainable and completely recyclable. The superior acid and salt resistance of Nu-Rock is perfectly suited for handling sewerage and other potentially corrosive substances. Nu-Rock pipes are better pipes by every standard.
Traffic Barriers
Traffic Barriers
The lighter weight of Nu-Rock and its superior compressive strength and overall durability makes Nu-Rock traffic barriers the perfect fit for this purpose. Completely recyclable and 100% sustainable Nu-Rock traffic barriers are a more affordable, better performing and greener alternative to traditional concrete equivalents.
Military
Military
The military applications of Nu-Rock technology are centred around the superior strength and durability of Nu-Rock products compared to traditional concrete and barriers. Nu-Rock’s ‘engineered rock’ has a greater resistance to explosive force. Due to the highly sensitive nature of these projects further information can only be provided upon request from verified sources.
Breakwaters / Sea Walls
Breakwaters / Sea Walls
The unprecedented salt resistance capabilities and superior strength and durability of Nu-Rock materials provides the perfect opportunity for Governments and Corporations looking for 100% sustainable and better performing sea wall and break water structures.
Nu-Rock’s lighter weight means large blocks can be transported and manoeuvred into position more easily.
Other Applications
Emissions free manufacturing
Nu-Rock’s “Formulated Rock” technology uses an emissions-free manufacturing process. It represents a significant improvement on centuries-old, energy-intensive methods that require the quarrying, transport, and kiln firing of limestone at temperatures of up to 1500°C. These traditional processes also rely on the extraction and movement of finite natural resources such as sand and aggregates.
In contrast to Nu-Rock, clay-based product manufacturing is also highly energy-intensive, typically involving a seven-day warming and drying cycle at 500°C, followed by a three-day firing process at 1050°C.
