ECOncrete and Submar have initiated a new strategic collaboration to provide protective systems using biological-reinforcement concrete for marine infrastructure in the Persian Gulf region.
Production and Distribution of Protective Systems
According to this commercial agreement, Submar will be responsible for the production, marketing, and distribution of mobile concrete protective surfaces that incorporate ECOncrete's biological-reinforcement concrete technology. This system is designed to protect against erosion and create stability while also aiding in the development of marine habitats.

Two Years of Experience in Marine Projects
This agreement comes after two years of collaboration during which the companies produced over 1,000 units of Submar Mats for marine projects. The marine applications of this system include protection for gas pipelines, underwater cables, transmission lines, and both floating and fixed energy infrastructures. This technology can also be used for controlling erosion near the shore, beach restoration, and stabilizing coastal lines.
Joseph Fornet, President of Submar, stated: "As energy and data infrastructures are moved towards coastal waters and further offshore, protecting these assets has become increasingly important. Combining Submar's experience in erosion control with ECOncrete's technology provides a practical solution for protecting infrastructures and supporting the marine environment for our clients."
ECOncrete has announced that its technology has been implemented in over 60 nearshore and marine projects worldwide. The new agreement allows the companies to expand combined systems for coastal and marine projects in the Persian Gulf and increase their capacities as energy infrastructures and other marine industries continue to develop in the region.
