GmbHused for multiple panels, eliminating the need to store or discard bulky formwork. As a result, construction projects can be completed with greater efficiency, lower material costs, and a reduced environmental footprint.A Case Study: Kuwait International Airport Terminal 2One of the most striking examples of adaptive moulds in action is their use in the Kuwait International Airport Terminal 2 project. The construction required 300,000 square meters of curved precast panels, translating to 37,000 double-curved shaped elements which of them 13,000 were unique. Traditional techniques would have necessitated at least 13,000 different moulds and led to the disposal of 150,000 cubic meters of polystyrene, generating 31,000 tons of CO2 emissions.Instead, the adaptive mould system allowed the same machine to be reshaped continuously, eliminating unnecesAdaptive Moulds Type D300 in operation in a precast plant.
