SCG-CPAC Partners with Global Expert DURA TECHNOLOGY Expanding Bridge Construction Capabilities with Ultra-High Performance Concrete Technology Elevating Thailand's Infrastructure Standards
SCG Cement and Green Solutions, through The Concrete Products and Aggregate Co., Ltd. (CPAC), and DURA® Technology, a world-leading specialist in the design, production, and installation of Ultra-high Performance Concrete (UHPC) bridge girders for bridge construction and rehabilitation projects, have signed a technology licensing agreement. This partnership introduces Ultra-high Performance Concrete (UHPC) technology for advanced bridge engineering applications, delivering superior strength, durability, and extended service life while accelerating project timelines and reducing long-term maintenance costs. The collaboration aims to establish new standards for bridge and infrastructure development nationwide.
Mr. Surachai Nimlaor, President - SCG Cement and Green Solutions Business, revealed that CPAC, as Thailand's leading provider of ready-mix concrete and precast concrete products, has consistently worked to elevate the country's construction standards over many years. This commitment is particularly evident in large-scale infrastructure projects such as river-crossing bridges and flyovers, which are essential for supporting metropolitan growth and preparing for the nation's transportation infrastructure development plans. “We recognize that developing strong, durable, and long-lasting infrastructure requires innovative technologies. This is why CPAC has partnered with world-class partner DURA® Technology, which specializes in applying Ultra-high Performance Concrete (UHPC) technology to design, produce, and install high-performance concrete bridge girders for medium- to large-scale bridge construction and rehabilitation projects. This technology will strengthen bridge structures, making them more durable and extending their service life," Mr. Surachai stated.
Adj. Prof Ir Dr. Voo Yen Lei, Co-Founder, Director, Chief Technology Officer at DURA® Technology, explained that DURA® Technology has dedicated over two decades to researching and developing Ultra-high Performance Concrete (UHPC) technology. This advanced material offers exceptional strength, durability, and environmental benefits compared to conventional concrete. The technology has been successfully implemented in major bridge, building, and infrastructure projects throughout Malaysia, India and China.
"This partnership combines CPAC's industry leadership and expertise in Thailand's concrete sector with DURA’s specialized knowledge of engineering in UHPC bridge applications. Together, we are establishing the foundation to transform Thailand's bridge and infrastructure industry —delivering stronger, safer, and longer-lasting structures while reducing lifecycle costs and promoting environmental sustainability," Dr. Voo stated.
