Through our deep understanding of how our materials impact the life cycle analysis (LCA) of infrastructure projects, we are championing and supporting sustainable practices across the highways sector through our innovative Mek-Dek leave-in-place formwork system—a key solution for a greener future.
As part of our commitment to environmental stewardship, Mekina’s GRP leave-in-place formwork offers tangible benefits for projects looking to reduce their carbon footprint while upholding high performance standards.
The mass and density of pre-cast concrete makes it costly and cumbersome to transport. The unique design of Mek-Dek panels not only reduces overall weight but also enables efficient stacking to optimise truck bed space and weight distribution. This results in lower fuel consumption and reduced emissions.
We can provide individual calculations of your transportation savings by choosing Mek-Dek – which could result in up to 90% HGV reduction versus pre-cast concrete!
Additionally, the recyclability of our materials and our focus on reducing waste through bespoke manufacturing contribute to a circular economy approach that aligns with sustainable construction goals.
At Mekina, we understand that today’s infrastructure projects require accountability and measurable progress towards sustainability.
By supporting you with accurate Scope 3 reporting data and providing transparent documentation through our Eco Report and forthcoming EPD, we can help you meet both regulatory and corporate social responsibility objectives.
