Concrete spraying expertise

Sprayed concrete was used for the first time in 1914. Since then it  has undergone major developments and improvements. A major breakthrough came with the design of the wet-spraying technique. Being a flexible, fast and economic construction method, it  replaced traditional methods of lining tunnel profiles to become the main tool to stabilise  excavations in tunnelling, underground construction and mines. One of the main reasons for this development is the technological progress in the field of concrete spraying systems. The expertise which Putzmeister has acquired over the last 50 years has led to the design of world class tunnel and mining systems, designed to meet today’s tough technical requirements.
