BIM & CAD Files

CAAST® is an Ultra High Performance Concrete ( UHPC ) panel made from a cement based composite, reinforced with PVA

( Polyvinyl Alcohol ) fibres.


CAAST® offers superior strength and durability compared to other cement-based solutions. These attributes create a material that is long-lasting and requires minimal maintenance. CAAST® panels are developed and manufactured at our Ancaster, Ontario headquarters.


The highly moldable nature of our technology aids in rendering high quality aesthetic details. We have access to a wide range of profiles and can collaborate on customized solutions as well. Once permanently installed, maintenance is limited to cleaning the surface as desired by the preference of the owner & building management team. CAAST® panels have a very long life due to their very durable impermeable matrix. The mechanical properties of UHPC allow for more slender profiles, reducing mass and embodied energy. When combining long service life and lower mass this solution aids in the development of environmentally sustainable design.
