Cemex SAB de CV (ADR)(NYSE:CX) reported that it supplied numerous solutions including air-entrained and water permeable concrete for the rehabilitation of sections of the A2 and A1 Motorways, two key federal highways in Germany.
For the revamp of around six kilometers of the A1 Motorway closer to Bremen, northwestern Germany, the company supplied around 1,000 cubic meters of Pervia©, allowing the manufacture of a water-permeable concrete layer under the respective highway’s new concrete pavement.
