Commercial Transparent Concrete by Litracon Australia from Irubber

The world's first commercially available transparent concrete Litracon® is a combination of optical fibres and fine concrete. It can also be produced as prefabricated building blocks. Due to the small size of the fibres, they blend into concrete becoming a component of the material like small pieces of aggregate.

In this manner, the result is not only two materials - glass in concrete - mixed, but a third, new material, which is homogeneous in its inner structure and on its main surfaces as well. Litracon® is a fully handmade product which results an exceptional and individual pattern of light in each piece.

The patent protected Litracon® products present the phenomenon of light transmitting concrete in the form of widely applicable new building materials. They have been developed by Hungarian architect Aron Losonczi since 2001. For more information please visit http://www.litracon.com.au
