Corestruc, a leading precast-concrete turnkey contractor, won two Fulton Awards in the 2025 edition of this prestigious Concrete Society of Southern Africa event. Now in its 45th year, the Fulton Awards recognise excellence and innovation in concrete.
One of Africa’s first precast concrete water towers, designed and built by Corestruc, was the overall winner in the infrastructure of up to R100-million in value category. Built on behalf of City of Ekurhuleni’s Water & Sanitation Department, this impressive engineering feat showcases the many inherent benefits of concrete prefabrication.
Two 10ML precast-concrete reservoirs, among the many that Corestruc has already designed and built for municipalities, won the innovation and invention in concrete award. The construction of these two high-quality water-retaining structures was fast tracked on behalf of Vhembe District Municipality using precast-concrete technologies.
The judging process focused on the use of concrete for both structural and non-structural purposes. Core criteria included concrete quality and finish; sustainability and “green” building initiatives; innovative uses of concrete and the overall aesthetic impact of the concrete aspects of the structures, among others. The adjudication panel consisted of well-known experts in their respective fields of concrete technology and application who also visited the two reservoirs and water tower as part of the judging process.
“This achievement would not be possible were it not for our visionary clients who continue to push us to innovate, as well as the high level of their professionalism and that of their engineering and contracting teams. Therefore, we share these achievements with City of Ekurhuleni, Vhembe District Municipality, Tango’s Consultants, Infraburo Civil and Structural Engineers, RSMM Construction and Morawa Building and Civils,” Willie de Jager, Managing Director of Corestruc, says.
