Putzmeister Underground, the Putzmeister’s division specialized in underground equipment, will present its latest innovation in mechanized concrete spraying equipment: Wetkret 2 Narrow Vein on September 3rd at a private event at the facilities of its Peruvian dealer Metal Técnica S.A. Specifically designed to operate in reduced sections of up to 2.5 x 2.5 m, this robotic equipment features Putzmeister's most advanced pumping technology and experience, offering a compact, safe, and highly efficient solution for one of the most demanding environments in the sector. Wetkret 2 Narrow Vein allows mechanizing the application of shotcrete in narrow veins, significantly improving operational safety and reducing personnel exposure to adverse conditions.

As part of the long-standing close cooperation between the Putzmeister SAB (Special Application Business) team and the concrete pump service providers KUNO and Betonlift on various construction projects, a training course for machine operators was carried out for the first time at the beginning of July 2025, which was specially tailored to the requirements of building construction/bridge construction and precast plants.

Avec la plateforme IoT thingsHub, Putzmeister apporte de la transparence dans le montage, réduit les temps de recherche de plus de 1 000 heures par an et pose les bases d'une production automatisée.

The Putzmeister MT 1.0 Batching Plant played a pivotal role in the construction of Package 3 of the Dwarka Expressway, India’s prestigious infrastructure project. Commonly known as the Northern Peripheral Road, this expressway features Asia’s first single-pier, 8-lane flyover, a symbol of the country's engineering excellence.

The investment in modern pump technology shows how well thought-out solutions can increase efficiency and reliability in production. The tailor-made solution underlines the innovative strength and quality standards of the Thomas Group in its production plants.

In December 2008, a devastating environmental disaster occurred in Kinston, Tennessee. The dam of a reservoir, which for years absorbed ash from the local coal-fired power station, ruptured under the load. Millions of cubic metres of black sludge poured over the region like a tidal wave, destroying houses and turning once-thriving local rivers into dead zones for fish. This shocking event drew attention to the dangers of storing ash with a high water content and sparked an urgent discussion about safety and environmental protection.
