The properties of BlingCrete™ open up various design possibilities in architecture, interior design and in transport safety areas. Potential applications are, for example, safety-related marking of danger spots in construction (stairs, sidewalks, platform edges, tunnels), as well as the design of integrated guidance systems and novel surface components (façade, floor, ceiling). BlingCrete™ faciliating new...

BlingCrete™ represents a new genre of materials with its own logic of effect that cannot be described simply in terms of the usual categories of heavy and light or form, construction, and surface. The material, also known as light-reflecting concrete, combines the positive characteristics of concrete (fire safety, solidity, building methods) with those of retroreflection....
