Applications

ECOncrete technology is used in marine construction projects from ports to urban waterfronts and from coastal protection to offshore assets.

Designed for local impact

We provide proprietary eco-engineered solutions or integrate our technology into third-party designs – from blocks and seawalls to standard units such as Tetrapods – to meet project-specific requirements and deliver long-term ecological uplift in any marine construction development (Image: Marine pier block enhanced with ECOncrete technology, Spain 2022).

 

Globally deployed by the local supply chain

Our technology enables the local construction supply chain to build marine infrastructure that delivers resilience and long term benefits. Ecological value is embedded in marine infrastructure such as cable protection solutions for subsea cables (Image: ECOncrete Marine Mattresses deployed in Long Island Sound, USA 2020).
