Product description

The unique surface finish of this high-performance concrete features embedded glass spheres that reflect light directly back at its source through a retroreflective mechanism.

This gives the material a dynamic illuminated appearance, in the correct lighting conditions, that can be used for decorative effect or discrete, integrated safety demarcation.

The placement of these spheres is controllable, allowing a random or structured distribution as desired. The process can also be applied to curved surfaces.

A proprietary reinforcement product ‘betoShell’ can be incorporated to reduce panel thicknesses.

Intended applications

• External envelope

• Internal cladding
