Lhoist takes part to Infratech (Rotterdam) on Jan 14-17

Lhoist Nederland will be present at the famous Infratech civil engineering trade fair in Rotterdam (Jan 14-17).

Quicklime (and especially Proviacal®, the low-dust lime developed by Lhoist) is used to dry out damp soils and to improve the clayey and loam soils to facilitate their reuse during earthworks. Lime is also increasingly used to recycle excavated material (trench spoil) from sites in urban areas.

Special applications of lime are the use of hydrated lime in the technical mortars consolidating underground structures such as tunnels. Hydrated lime also improves the performance of the asphalt mixes used for road surfacing. It increases their resistance to stripping, rutting and durability.

If you would like to meet our civil engineering specialists on the Lhoist stand (n°600), please feel free to ask us an invitation by e-mail.
