RUCONBAR – Rubberised Concrete Noise Barriers

The RUCONBAR, developed by the University of Zagreb, Faculty of Civil Engineering, in
cooperation with Beton Lučko d.o.o. and Gumiimpex – GRP, represents a successful example of
industrial symbiosis and sustainable innovation in construction. RUCONBAR technology uses
rubber granules derived from end-of-life car tires as an aggregate in concrete production,
resulting in noise barriers that are both environmentally sustainable and functionally effective.
