Deutlicher Teil der chinesischen Atomgeschichte
Griptec on the first 100% Chinese design reactor
Im Juli wurden die ersten Griptec-Verbindungen auf dem Gelände des 5. Reaktors des Kernkraftwerks Fuqing in der chinesischen Provinz Fujian hergestellt.
Dextra is thrilled to be part of the construction of the first reactor to be built after a 100% Chinese design. 400,000 Griptec connections will be used in the next 5 years, mainly in the aircraft protective shell.
Griptec ist dank seiner einzigartigen Leistung und einem automatischen Prüfprozess, der 100% der Verbindungen prüft, die bevorzugte Verbindungslösung für Bewehrungsstäbe in der Nuklearindustrie.
Griptec has been supplied to nuclear projects like Taishan EPR 2&3 in China and Flamanville EPR 3 in France.

Advanced rock bolt solutions now available!
Dextra expands its geotechnical range with two new systems
Dextra Friction Bolts allow a fast and clean rock bolting for all tunneling and mining applications. No grouting is necessary as the steel tube is expanded with high water pressure.
Dextra Hollow Self Drilling Bolts are based on a 3-in-1 concept with the hollow steel bar acting as drill rod, reinforcement bar and grouting pipe. They are available in steel or FRP and are suitable for the most difficult ground conditions.
Deliveries on track for London Crossrail
Griptec installation is continuing in several packages and stations
Crossrail is the largest engineering project in Europe. It is a major part of Transport for London’s investment programme and the largest addition to the transport system for 50 years.
The 118-km east-west rail link across Greater London will run from Reading and Heathrow in the west to Shenfield and Abbey Wood in the east.
Dextra has been delivering more than 600,000 Griptec connections on more than 20 packages since 2013, including stations such as Liverpool street, Paddington, Bond Street and Canary Wharf.
Segments are expected to start operating progressively, with full completion scheduled for December 2019.
