MISSION
With a focus on material purity and environmental sustainability, we strive to showcase the beauty of nature and the craftsmanship of the Vietnamese people to the world. Backed by over 10 years of experience, Sconcrete is confident in its ability to satisfy even the most demanding customers.
WHAT WE MAKE
NFRC (Natural Fiber Reinforced Concrete): Concrete reinforced with natural plant fibers such as jute, coconut coir, seagrass, and water hyacinth | GFRC or GRC (Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete): This is fiberglass-reinforced concrete. It is similar to NFRC but replaces cellulose plant fibers with fiberglass.
High-performance concrete (HPC), with a compressive strength of 60-70 MPa (compared to 30 MPa for regular concrete), is a cement mortar mixture with strictly controlled ingredients, including Portland cement, silica, additives, and more. It is used for products such as wall tiles, washbasins, and bathtubs.
Ultra High Performance Concrete (UHPC): This concrete has a compressive strength greater than 100 MPa (compared to 30 MPa for regular concrete). It is highly durable and suitable for outdoor projects in harsh weather and climate conditions, such as deserts and coastal areas.
PRODUCTION METHODS
1
Depending on the requirements for accuracy or the tactile quality of the form, the prototype will be handcrafted in plaster or converted into a digital file and processed through a 3D printer.
2
Sconcrete use various materials to shape molds. For forms with high surface texture, elastic liquid materials are used to capture the structure and surface details.
3
Once the mold structure has hardened, the outer shell is removed. The high elasticity of the shaping liquid allows for precise replication of the surface details of the original design prototype.
4
The mold can be reused multiple times for production orders. The prototype will be kept confidential upon the customer's request.
5
The concrete mixture is applied into the mold either by hand-layering onto the mold surface or by liquid pouring. This process is carried out in the production workshop.
6
Once the concrete has hardened, the product is removed from the mold and undergoes surface finishing. The mold is then ready for reuse in step 5.
