Empa Zukunftsfonds: Building materials to protect the climate

Dübendorf, St. Gallen und Thun, 7.12.2021 - Scientists are visionaries. Sometimes their ideas go much further than an industrial partner is willing to go.

The latest example is a research project on prestressed high-performance concrete, which can now be started thanks to funding from the Ernst Göhner Foundation.
