Light-Transmitting Concrete from Litracon – simply amazing

Fabulous and dramatic, Litracon have created a concrete that is as innovative as it is amazing. Designed by Hungarian Aron Losonczi, Litracon creates a mysterious light material that retains the strength and texture of concrete. Litracon uses a matrix of glass optic fibres to transmit light through the concrete. Rather than weaken the material, the web of glass actually lends strength to the concrete by creating a modest aggregate. Suddenly the solid primitive material gives a light translucent aspect that transmits dramatic shadows like a screen. Due to the fabulous properties of fibre optics, light can transmit through up to twenty meters of Litracon. It can be cast as blocks, panels or even precast forms of light-transmitting concrete. Perfect for concrete constructions as well as decorative interiors Litracon brings a juxtaposition of earth and light.
