LUCEM, a leading provider of light-transmitting concrete, has been dedicated to creating a more atmospheric and functional world by combining concrete and light for over a decade. Their innovative product utilizes a unique combination of concrete, fibers, and light to achieve its light-transmitting properties. By embedding special glass fibers within the concrete, light is effectively transmitted when exposed to natural or artificial light sources. LUCEM, a leading provider of light-transmitting concrete, will unveil its latest innovations in digital concrete at the Architect Work exhibition in Munich on 27-28 April 2022. The exhibition allows LUCEM to showcase its innovative product and its applications in architectural design and construction. It serves as a platform for LUCEM to demonstrate the potential and capabilities of its unique offering.
Dupont Lightstone combined light and concrete to create a new intelligent building material that comes alive as it transports light through itself. It can transfer daylight into dark, windowless rooms and transform entire buildings into bright shape-shifting sculptures. Perhaps most revolutionary, it even can produce a live image on its surface. We call it Lightstone. Dupont Lightstone has started a collaboration with the Danish Technological Institute to develop an industrial production method to produce digital concrete screens with double curved surfaces. Together with the Norwegian Technological Institute, they use an industrial robot to build molds for complex shapes. They also use robotic technology to distribute the optical fibers evenly on the surface of our new sculptural digital concrete screens.
September 2019:LUCEM GmbH, a prominent company, has launched translucent concrete panels featuring advanced characteristics such as weather and UV resistance, abrasion resistance, and non-flammability.
April 2018: China's Transportation Ministry of Science and Technology has announced the construction of smart roads which will charge cars automatically. The road will be paved with electric batteries, sensors, and solar panels embedded underneath translucent concrete.
