Coppel, Texcoco, Mexico

Due to the high demand of operation as well as the heavy forklift traffic that the project represents, Coppel was looking for an innovation where 47,000 m2 of post-tensioned floor would be built. This represented a challenge because the required flatness floor values as well as the required work progress speed could not be achieved with a post-tensioned floor.

Rinol, one of the main contractors in Mexico, offered Coppel the option to build a floor with SigmaSlab technology; which is the combination of Dramix® 4D steel fibers and CCL post-tensioned cables. This innovative technology for concrete floors and slabs allowed Rinol to build a floor with panels up to 100x100m and a high level of flatness, managing to meet Coppel´s requirements.
