Advantages over steel: - lower production costs - a 20 x higher vibration damping - 30% lower energy requirements - 100% recyclable - high stiffness - low thermal conductivity - high chemical resistance - good resistance to pressure What is mineral cast / polymer concrete? IZM “BAERLIT®“ is a material that was scientifically developed in cooperation with the Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg. The basis for the environmentally friendly construction materials are selected materials, a small proportion of binders based on epoxy resins and various additives. IZM Polycast GmbH & Co.
