Innovations and Potential of CPC Panels in Decarbonizing Concrete Construction: Interview with Josef Kurath

CPC (Carbon Prestressed Concrete). Image © ZHAWCPC concrete slabs are based on the technology of "carbon pre-stressed concrete," which originated from a long-term research project conducted by the Zurich University of Applied Sciences Winterthur (ZHAW) and Silidur AG, Andelfingen. These panels are reinforced with thin, pre-stressed carbon strands, allowing them to be three to four times thinner and lighter while maintaining the same load-bearing capacity as traditional reinforced slabs.
