Mammut Technocrete’s facility in the UAE.

Mammut Technocrete, one of Mammut Group’s newest visionary ventures has grown commendably in the past year, in terms of its output and projects executed.

As one of the largest manufacturers of “revolutionary” precast concrete panels in the world, the company has been able to bag prestigious projects such as the Ottoman Palace in Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Waterfront Project, development at Al Raha beach for Aldar Laing O’Rourke, Sheikh Hamdan Race Course at Al Lisaili, to name a few. It has also been awarded the Dewa (Dubai Electricity and Water Authority) reservoir and the Al Ain projects in recent times.
The company supplies the construction industry with all kinds of precast concrete products and concepts such as slabs, solid walls, double walls, sandwich panels, claddings, beams, columns and staircases, landings and footings.
Speaking on its remarkable growth as a company, group marketing manager, Siamak Motemavelian says: “The reason behind our success is that we have streamlined all the processes between our four plants that are now amalgamated together (that is the fully automatic plant, semi-automatic plant, special plant and batching plant). At the same time, our highly trained and dedicated team of quality control engineers have been continually developing our products and procedures to attain higher standards. Our technological innovations, as a result, have accelerated the use of our precast products in the region’s construction industry.”
Moreover, each of the plants is equipped with state-of-the-art technology and equipment, he points out: “When it comes to technology, we have always opted for the best software and the latest technologies. In fact, Mammut Technocrete is the world’s only company that combines new technologies of Sommer from Germany with the patented panel technology by TMCP from Canada.”
Elaborating further on the firm’s technical capabilities, Motemavelian says, “The production facility of our fully automatic plant uses shutter fixing robots, reinforcement fixing robots, automatic concrete spreaders, mesh carrying robots, automatic vibration through its vibration stations and also has a fully automated storage system in its curing chambers.”
Similarly, its semi-automatic plant – which produces 65-mm-thick Mammut Planks – uses automatic plotting and vibration systems. The Mammut Plank is either a roof slab or floor slab that acts as a formwork that becomes an integrated part of the roof and floor after concreting during erection. These meet the design requirements and provides an early strength for fast pace construction, according to him.
In its special plant, the company produces all its customised, special elements such as wall panels with large or architectural openings, stairs, columns, beams, landings and footings. “The elements are made to order and the numbers of pallets are fixed at one position. All the processes are carried out simultaneously,’ remarks Motemavelian.
Continuing on the company’s technological excellence, he says: “In terms of software, we have opted for the Tekla software, which helps in strong visualisation, bidding and cost estimation, helping us stay competitive and meet the expectations of our customers. This also makes it easier for us to launch and implement our ERP management systems in our daily applications.”
Meanwhile, the Mammut Group has recently established a new company called Mammut Contracting Company (MCC) to execute contracting works. MCC will be the main contractor for the Dubai Waterfront Project and Sheikh Hamdan Race Course at Al Lisaili according to the company.
