At SCA Wood’s sawmill in Tunadal, Sundsvall, a unique test is taking shape. Together with leading partners, we are casting a large-scale concrete floor, reinforced with our graphene-based additive 2Dx® CO-NXT. The goal is to develop durable and frost-resistant industrial concrete with a significantly lower climate impact.
Two of the most important ingredients are produced locally in Sundsvall, which further strengthens the regional innovation ecosystem and reduces transport related emissions.
This is no ordinary test. The floor will be exposed to heavy traffic, wear, and freeze-thaw conditions. As Mattias Jonsson, Peab, noted on site: “Now it’s for real. You’d be hard-pressed to find a tougher test.” His colleague Viktor Grannas, Peab, agreed, calling it “the litmus test for this new technology.”
