Bekaert
Bekaert is a global leader in steel wire transformation and coating technologies, with operations in over 45 countries. A key part of its strategy today is driving sustainability across industries—especially in construction. Bekaert’s most impactful contribution to sustainable construction is Dramix®, its steel fiber reinforcement solution for concrete. Unlike traditional rebar, Dramix® fibers are mixed directly into the concrete, reducing the need for mesh or bars. This approach enables thinner slabs, faster installation, and significant reductions in material use and emissions. Dramix® can reduce the carbon footprint of concrete applications by 20–50%, depending on the structure. It also improves durability and extends service life, which further reduces lifecycle emissions. Dramix® comes with Environmental Product Declarations (EPDs), which support green building certifications like LEED and BREEAM.
