Concrete Institute of Australia

Welcome to the Concrete Institute of Australia, located at Ventnor Avenue in West Perth, Australia. As an establishment and point of interest, we are dedicated to promoting and advancing the use of concrete in Australia.

In exciting news, a tunnel launch area is currently being constructed in Melbourne's north-east. This facility, standing at an impressive 13 metres high, will serve as a storage space for concrete segments used to line tunnels. This project showcases the importance of concrete in infrastructure development and highlights the innovative approaches taken in the construction industry.

We are also pleased to announce that Cemex, a leading global building materials company, will be constructing a fully solar-driven industrial-sized pilot plant. This groundbreaking plant will utilize new technology to produce clinker, a key component in cement production, solely from the power of the sun. This initiative demonstrates the commitment of the concrete industry to sustainable and environmentally friendly practices.

In Victoria's Yarra Ranges, a noteworthy bridge upgrade has recently commenced. With an estimated completion time of eight weeks (weather permitting), this project showcases the versatility and durability of concrete in infrastructure projects. The Cement Institute is proud to contribute to the development of safe and reliable transportation networks in the region.
