CONCRETE COLOURS, TERRAZZO & MORE

The basis for every dade design concrete object is our inhouse developed dade ROC high-performance concrete. This concrete is a so called Ultra High Performance Fibre Reinforced Concrete (UHPFRC). Our dade ROC contains gravel with a grain size of a 6 / 8mm from the area of Altstätten and sand from the Rhine delta. Together with an extremely high-performance cement, some chemical additives and fiberglass, we created a concrete that offers nearly perfect surface and material properties and outperforms conventional concrete with a factor of 3-4 (more facts). Since 2016 we produce CO2 neutral.

THE OPTIONS FOR INDIVIDUAL CREATIONS – THE DADE CASTING & FINISHING

1) Concrete colours

The dade ROC base mixture is coloured by adding pigments. The dade design standard colours are (as pictured above left) white, natural grey, anthracite and pink. Concrete is a natural material and is subject to fluctuations. Therefore, colours cannot be produced according to a RAL table. For individual colour requests, we will provide you with samples.

2) Terrazzo surfaces

Terrazzo surfaces are trending in modern buildings. To create terrazzo, the concrete surface is ground in 6–7 passes, making the grain visible. The grinding process simultaneously closes and seals the surface. For terrazzo surfaces we use different chips according to your specifications, e.g. Guber split or Valser stone. Take a look at our practice examples.

3) OSB, herringbone, board formwork design etc.

The dade ROC base mix is ​​poured into formwork. We work with various formwork materials and achieve correspondingly diverse surfaces. Standard – especially for concrete kitchens – is a smooth formwork design. Other common formwork types are the OSB formwork, the herringbone design and the board formwork. Here you can find some examples in our project blog.

4) Wax or Diamond finish

In addition to various formwork materials, we can also set accents with the surface finish. In addition to the finish with the dade coating or impregnation, we also offer a diamond and wax finish. For the latter, the surfaces are rendered hydrophobic, polished and then waxed. Take a look at our practice examples.
