Summary:
A German SME active in the development, production and sales of natural binded path coverings which are suitable for country specific climate conditions and the locations where they are used is looking for joint venture partners in Scandinavia, Iceland and Canada. The task will be the development of country specific material mixtures for natural binded layer path coverings with a high content of local mineral material to minimise the transport effort.
Description:
A German SME with the aim to develop climate friendly material for the use on horizontal surfaces has developed an own product range for natural binded path coverings. The path coverings are suitable for public and private paths and places in urban areas as well as on gravel roads for i.e. agricultural, mining or forestry sector and cycle paths.
Natural binded path coverings have several advantages, as the surface is not sealed and the surfaces are hereby water permeable and can also store water. Inside of cities the path coverings improve the local climate and less water has to be discharged. Furthermore natural binded path coverings are less expensive to build and the total life time can be enhanced by a proper maintenance concept. The German company has developed stabiliser additives which create dust- and smear-free path coverings.
The German SME is looking for joint venture partners in Scandinavia, Iceland and Cananda who are already active in the construction sector and are interested in the joint development of path covering for the specific region as joint venture partners. The German company will develop the material in close cooperation with the local partner who should source the local material and mix the local material according to mixing formulations created by the German SME with the provided stabiliser additive. Additionally the partner will be responsible for the marketing and sales of the products. The aim is to create a familiar appearance and to minimise the transport effort.
Type (e.g. company, R&D institution…), field of industry and Role of Partner Sought:
Targeted partners are already active in the production and sales of mineral products for the construction sector. The task will be to source and mix the material and the organisation of the local marketing and sales in close collaboration with the partner.
