| Dear Sir or Madam,
|
| This year’s edition of the BetonTage congress again welcomes you to Ulm in the first quarter to cover a wide range of topics from all industry segments. As Europe’s largest industry event featuring a second-to-none exhibition geared towards the relevant audience, we are the driving force behind innovations in building sustainably with concrete and precast elements. Rethinking sustainability means for us to consider environmental, but also economic and social aspects. Construction must remain affordable and fulfill its social function in society. We have had and are facing extremely difficult years in the building construction sector, more specifically in the housing segment, because the reality created by numerous inappropriate decisions and changed, radically deteriorated conditions for construction is challenging society in its entirety. Uncertainty must give way to planning security, because housing is increasingly becoming a central social issue with considerable explosive potential. Serial and modular construction using precast components is a technology that has been evolving for decades. This year, we will again provide a platform to bring together the entire construction value chain, including architects, structural and civil engineering firms, precast producers, and construction contractors, but also the highly innovative supplier industry that will be featured more prominently than ever. Our aim is to highlight the opportunities that will determine the future of construction – let us rethink sustainability together at the 69th BetonTage congress!
Yours sincerely,
Friedrich Gebhart

The color experts from LANXESS proactively support the development of new concrete technologies with regard to the use of iron oxide pigments. These include cement-free and self-compacting concretes as well as concrete formulations that are used in additive manufacturing. LANXESS will be presenting its product solutions at the trade fair bauma 2025 in hall B1, booth 124.

| | | Rethinking sustainability and the fib: BetonTage 2025 | | Over the last decade, many efforts have been made to promote sustainability in the construction industry worldwide. Construction has one of the most significant environmental impacts due to the consumption of resources in producing materials, energy use, and carbon emissions. The construction ecosystem has sought more sustainable alternatives, especially in the last decade. These include introducing new materials, more productive construction systems, more assertive projects, and new tools introduced with digitalization. Structural concrete engineering has been no different, particularly because concrete is the most consumed material in the world within this context.We have undergone a period of transformation, during which new ...
