NATIONAL CONSTRUCTION SUMMIT

Saint-Gobain Construction Chemicals (SGCC) will participate in the National Construction Summit in Dublin on 15–16 April, welcoming visitors to Stand C7A.

SGCC will spotlight its integrated Data Centre Solutions, designed to deliver higher efficiency, lower embodied carbon, and enhanced resilience for Ireland’s rapidly expanding digital infrastructure sector.

At the Summit, SGCC will present a streamlined portfolio that brings together low carbon concrete technologies, high performance structural waterproofing systems, advanced fire protection systems, and precision environmental control solutions. With innovations such as low carbon concrete admixtures, real time concrete monitoring, robust fire safety systems, flooring and industry leading waterproofing products, SGCC supports the full lifecycle of data centre construction—from groundworks to long term protection—while enabling faster, more predictable delivery.

Alongside data centre applications, SGCC will also highlight its broader infrastructure capabilities, helping developers and contractors deliver safer, more sustainable and high performance assets across transport, utilities and industrial construction.
