DAW Construction, in partnership Qatar German Polymer Company (QGPC), has unfolded pioneering solution poised to redefine infrastructure development: Polymer Resin Concrete (PRC).
This transformative material tackles critical infrastructure challenges, providing unmatched sustainability, durability, and efficiency, and setting new benchmarks for urban resilience.
By eliminating water use during production, PRC delivers a more sustainable alternative to traditional reinforced concrete, mitigating a pressing concern as global water scarcity continues to intensify. PRC’s solution blends innovation with environmental responsibility.
In addition, PRC has a lifespan of over 100 years, far surpassing traditional concrete. With its robust durability and low maintenance demands, PRC is a highly efficient and sustainable option for long-term infrastructure investments.
Tarek Musbah Abdul Rahman, General Manager of DAW Construction, commented that, “Infrastructure today is no longer about simply building structures, it’s about sustainability, speed, and value. With Polymer Resin Concrete, we’ve introduced a material that overcomes the challenges of traditional concrete, such as corrosion and costly maintenance, while drastically reducing construction timelines. This positions the UAE as a global leader in sustainable urban development.”
PRC’s remarkable technical properties include compressive strength of up to 120 MPa and a near-zero absorption rate of 0.05 mm. Its lightweight design allows faster installation, streamlines transportation and reduces labor and equipment costs.
Additionally, PRC’s resistance to corrosion eliminates the need for reinforcements, making it particularly effective for applications such as sewer systems, drainage channels, and manhole covers.
The multifaceted nature of PRC allows its deployment in a wide range of applications, such as advanced drainage systems, flood mitigation projects, and urban transport networks. Its adaptability to complex designs further enhances its appeal for infrastructure planners.
With faster construction, reduced material waste, and enhanced durability, PRC is positioned as the ultimate material for addressing the dual challenges of climate change and urban population growth.
Tarek added that, “The construction industry is shifting. Developers and governments are not just looking for materials; they’re seeking solutions. PRC offers a comprehensive answer by addressing critical challenges like flooding, rapid urbanization, and environmental sustainability. By partnering with QGPC, we are bringing a transformative product to the market, ensuring the UAE continues to lead in global infrastructure innovation.”
