Giatec®, world leader in concrete testing technologies, announced that HeidelbergCement has made a strategic minority investment in the company. HeidelbergCement is one of the world’s largest integrated manufacturers of building materials and solutions. As they continue to expand their digital offerings with Giatec’s technology, the company aims to create the best-in-class digital experience for its customers.
This strategic partnership is centered around the shared vision of moving the concrete industry toward carbon neutrality. Giatec’s products have a high sustainability impact for which the company has received funding from research foundations such as Sustainable Development Technology Canada and the National Research Council of Canada Industrial Research Assistance Program. The company’s suite of proprietary smart sensors helps concrete producers and construction companies worldwide with accurate monitoring of concrete throughout its lifecycle from production and delivery to placement. Combined with sophisticated AI algorithms (that can be integrated with a wide range of existing software solutions in the concrete industry), the real-time sensor data is used by concrete producers to optimize concrete mixes with up to 20% cement usage reduction in certain applications. Considering the volume of concrete produced worldwide, this translates to a very significant reduction in global CO2 emissions equivalent to taking millions of cars off the road.
“HeidelbergCement’s strategic investment in Giatec is inspired by the shared vision of moving the concrete industry forward, with using cutting-edge sensing technologies, expanding digitalization, and reducing the concrete carbon footprint. Giatec’s unrivaled combination of proprietary sensor technology and AI-based software enables significant efficiency and sustainability improvements from the plant to the jobsite,” says Dennis Lentz, Chief Digital Officer at HeidelbergCement.
“This strategic partnership will propel Giatec’s expansion to international markets with the HeidelbergCement global reach and on-the-ground operations in over 50 countries. Among all the major industry players, we are excited to work with HeidelbergCement as we share the same vision and are confident that together we are going to revolutionize the concrete industry, and develop best-in-class software solutions for all concrete producers worldwide,” says Pouria Ghods, CEO and Co-founder, Giatec.
