Concrete sector on the move

Dear Readers,

We are on the move. And by that I mean -  as it seems to me personally – not only the ever-faster developments, the innovations and the course of transformation in our sector of industry that is progressing faster and faster, but also the transformation of our media brand that accompanies this process.

For the current issue of BFT International, I was fortunate to have an exciting conversation with Dr.-Ing. Jens Uwe Pott, the initiator of Sustainable Precast. Certification programs are an important building block in the transformation of the construction industry, simultaneously providing both an incentive as well as support for companies to focus on their own sustainability strategies. The interview (beginning on page 32) provides information on the intention, the core key issues and the procedure leading to certification.

The interview was accompanied by the video team of Bauverlag – since moving pictures are a great opportunity to transport the emotions and impressions of an interview beyond mere content and facts. You will find the video on the YouTube channel of BFT International. Go and take a look...

If you, too, are interested in video accompaniment – e.g., at the BetonTage in May – please get in touch with us. Apropos BetonTage: for pleasant anticipation and a little foretaste, you will already find this year’s list of exhibitors on pp. 59 ff.

I wish you much enjoyment in reading this issue.

Yours

Karla Knitter
