Within all the types of concrete that we offer, concrete with color are the ones with the greatest esthetical value.
These concretes are "coloured in mass" (adding the colouring additive to the mixture made in concrete plant) and are used for applications of exposed concrete, whether pavements or structures seen.
On this occasion in the town of Roda de Ter, a pavement with black tones was chosen.
In Campdevànol, different types of orange tones were chosen for a parking of an environmental center.
Promsa faced in 2017 the challenge to supply the new logistics platform of Amazon in El Prat de Llobregat.
The foundation of the slab took several months of supply, the largest (in dimensions and volume) Promsa has ever supplied: 32,000 m3 at a daily rhythm of 500 m3 served from the concrete plants in Zona Franca and Pallejà.
The Pavements phase, 50,000 m2 of screed on the foundation slab with controlled retraction concrete and finishes of high planimetry.
150,000 m2 of compression layer on the Precon alveolar pre-slabs (company of the Ciments Molins group), a concrete with lesser planimetry requirement, but with the handicap of thickness (7/10 cm).
For the urbanisation phase (Sanitation, services, accesses and parking platforms for trucks) we supplied over 7,000 m3 of Flexotraction Concrete.
Finally, in the office area we supplied 2,000 m2 of self-levelling mortar.
In December 2017, this exterior pavement was made for truck parking inside Promsa in Pallejà (Barcelona).
The pavement was made with PROLIMIT, without reinforcement or joints (the pavement was 16x15m without any cuts). This type of concrete that contains polymeric fibers that give the concrete residual strength without the need to use reinforced or double reinforced.
For this case, a non-smooth finish was chosen, since as it was a parking area, adherence was sought for the vehicles.
In October 2015 Promsa began the product supply works for the construction of the Shuttle that will bridge the city of Barcelona with the T1 and T2 of the El Prat-Airport.
For this project, an on-site plant was built inside the facilities of the Shuttle to supply concrete and mortar.
18,000 m3 of fresh mortar with filler to be injected in the tunnel borer.
100,000 m3 of concrete for screens (concrete with dosage of 375 kg of SR cement) and slabs (HA30 SR).
The works are expected to end in September 2018 pending the supply of around 55,000 m3.
For the paving work at Estació del Nord, in February 2018, cellular concrete was chosen for the over-parking area.
The function of the cellular concrete is that of filling, lightening the whole structure and not loading it with overweights.
For the final layer, HA25 pumped concrete was applied.
The work is approximately 1,600m2.
This pavement of a large area for commercial equipment has been divided into 2 phases:
- 1st Phase: A first layer of HA25 with a roughly 10cm thick armor.
- 2nd Phase: A leveling layer made with self-leveling mortar C-12 of about 5cm.
For both phases, pumping equipment applied by the PROMSA Flooring team has been used.
The works were carried out in March 2018 with a concrete surface of 1,120m2.
In the Plaza Lloreda located in Badalona (Barcelona) our pavements teams has applied a concrete pavement with iron oxide.
This concrete is permanently coloured giving it a much warmer shade that adapts to its surroundings.
The pavement of part of the Can Solei and Can Arnús Parks in Badalona has been applied with Aripaq.
It has been carried out in several stages due to its large tract of land.
Aripaq is an ideal product for parks because it guarantees no maintenance and it gives the pavement natural features and integration with its surroundings.
Aripaq pavement has been applied to the area surrounding the Outlet Style Market of Viladecans.
Aripaq is very suitable for pedestrian areas surrounding shopping centres, due to is high durability, little maintenance and integration with its surroundings.
Aripaq provides high landscape integration as while containing a percentage of recycled raw material, thus being environmentally-friendly.
For this application, since it is a very elevated surface, the material was supplied using a concrete dumper and it was applied on site with a spreading machine.
Aripaq was applied on the paths located around the de Castell d’Hostalric.
Aripaq gives the pavement a natural texture, with a high level of landscape integration, as well as keeping unchanged since this pavement does not require maintenance. It also prevents puddles from forming on the surface during the rainy season, and it does not allow weed to grow on undesired places, thus making the necessary maintenance after application almost non-existent.
To renovate the school Betània, located in Pedralbes, Barcelona, the construction company relied on Promsa for the supply of the main materials. The products supplied are:
The outdoor pavements of this house had a modern architectonic design with simple and elegant lines were manufactured with printed concrete.
The type of printed concrete chosen was the traditional style cobblestone on a dark grey shade, that emphasises the colour contrast.
The restaurant has a large outdoor area that requires a resistant pavement with a modern look.
They chose to apply a printed concrete pavement simulating wood. For a more natural look, we added on the concrete a touch of brown colour, obtaining a pavement that imitates wood, lasting, easy to clean and with no maintenance.
In homes, single or multi-family, self-levelling mortar is a very useful material, since it gives a high degree of levelling to the pavement, even with radiant heating, making it perfectly compatible and providing a high work performance.
In this occasion, for the single-family home, the self-levelling mortar was selected to level the slab and provide higher insulation. The final finish of the indoor pavement was selected by the Project Management.
The project consisted in the renovation of the Masia Vil·la Joana, located in Collserola. The house where Jacint Verdaguer lived at the beginning of the 20th century and which today is used as a museum and is part of the Museu d’Història de Barcelona.
Due to the change in purpose it was necessary to reinforce the structure using HALF concrete: a self-compacting fiber light weight concrete, because it can be pumped and it is also resistant, which makes it easy, fast and safe to apply. Some areas of the structure were particularly damaged and it was necessary to rebuild the “volta Catalana”.
In some cases it was decided to put a metallic structure, using then HALF (self-compacting light concrete).
In January 2012, Promsa installed an on-site plant to supply the necessary products for the works of Mango’s logistic complex located in Lliçà d’Amunt (Barcelona).
These works included: urbanisation (drains, gutters, etc.), screen walls, foundations, structure of the logistics warehouse, etc.
A large amount of pumping and the application of high planimetry pavements were also carried out.
Prosilence self-levelling mortar with float finish was used in this office building. This finish allows you to glue products to its surface.
Offering at the same time the benefits of Prosilence: acoustic insulation light payment without cracks.
Self-levelling Prosilence mortar was supplied to this Teyco works for the interior pavement.
Apart from the properties of the Prosilence (acoustic insulation, anti-crack, etc.), the project management decided to apply it over mesh.
The product is completely compatible with or without mesh. It can be adapted to the needs of each works.
For this renovation work of the Museu del Suro, Promsa’s pavements team applied Prosilence Mix (100 m2).
The benefit of using self-levelling mortar Prosilence Mix is that it gives acoustic insulation with reduced thickness. This insulation is achieved thanks to the fact that the product has plastic of recycled origin in its formulation.
After a technical assessment it was decided for this project to carry out the screed with aerated concrete (over 50 m3 poured during a morning using a pump).
This kind of concrete, due to its low density and high porosity, allows the screed in places where weight is not required.
In this site, apart from aerated concrete as screed, also concrete pavements with a polished finish was supplied.
Prosilence Mix was applied in the renovation of the Hotel Suizo located in Via Layetana in Barcelona.
The work was of around 1,400 m2 divided in 3 floors.
Prosilence mix was chosen because it was not possible to increase the thickness of the pavement. This product can be used for thicknesses from 1.5 cm (prior connecting bridge).
