Room modules - Import export

Our newly developed modular mould kit offers the perfect solution also for smaller projects. One of the unique features of the new concept is the patent-pending shrinking mechanism, whereby the module is lifted while the inner core is shrunk at the same time. The mould was also deliberately designed to be modular. The core and exterior panels consist of various standardised components that can be easily swapped out and adapted to other room dimensions. This means the mould can be used efficiently even if the production volume of a room is small.

Visionary concepts come true with upcrete® modular moulds – even complex concrete structures can be produced with smooth surfaces on all sides. The room module mould with “flying” shrinking core was the fi rst room cell mould developed in Hockenheim and was used for a modular housing project for a Peruvian customer. This mould variant is based on the upcrete® technology, in which self-compacting concrete is pumped from below into a closed mould. This process allows the concrete to optimally distribute within the mould and yields smooth surfaces on all sides, as well as precise edges and recesses. Another advantage is that the structure can be produced in its fi nal installation position, which means that subsequent turning is no longer required.
