Our hollow-core products are designed, manufactured and installed by us as part of our commitment to providing economical flooring and perimeter walling solutions.
We have demonstrated versatility, quality and confidence in using a high-quality, safe and economic method of construction in hundreds of projects.
We have 40 years' experience in this industry, making us one of the leading hollow-core slab manufacturers in South Africa.
What We Do
Echo designs a layout to suit the architect's drawings and collaborates with the professional team to optimise and economise the design for a specific project. This phase involves assessing load-bearing capacities and aesthetic considerations to ensure the final products meet safety standards and client expectations.
Project Design
01
Our team visits the project site with a layout drawing and checks the as-built dimensions, assesses site conditions and identifies any potential challenges or constraints. This stage is crucial for accurate planning and manufacturing, ensuring that the final products fit seamlessly into the construction environment and meet all technical and regulatory requirements.
Site Measurement
02
We use specialised equipment and processes to produce the structural elements according to the approved designs and specifications. This phase involves tasks such as concrete mixing, molding, curing and quality control checks to ensure that the finished products meet industry standards for strength, durability and dimensional accuracy.
Manufacturing
03
Our team coordinates the transportation of finished products to the project site, taking into account factors like site access and delivery schedules, ensuring we keep up with our clients' project timeline. Skilled installation crews then follow detailed plans to assemble and place the concrete elements securely, ensuring proper alignment, support and adherence to safety protocols.
Delivery & Installation
04
We meticulously line and level the installed elements. We then grout along the longitudinal joints using the contractor's materials. This grouting enhances structural integrity and load-bearing capacities. This meticulous process ensures that the finished concrete components meet aesthetic standards and functional requirements.
