With composites, architects and civil engineers can realise completely free-formed shapes and apply a wide range of finishes and textures to structural façades, bridges, and other load-bearing elements. Solico has extensive experience in the structural engineering of these complex components, including the approval, certification, and class compliance processes required for both architectural and civil infrastructure projects.
Our knowledge and expertise allow such structures to move from Architectural design, through plan approval and into production faster and more efficiently. In addition, Solico frequently supports the end-user by providing independent supervision and quality assurance of production facilities.
Our specialisation is composite engineering. We are passionate about composites because we believe this advanced material brings unique advantages to the Civil & Architecture industry:
In summary, composites can turn every complex design into reality.

Together with Vink BVBA, Solico worked on the quay bridge for Umicore. The bridge is 120 meters long and is made 100% of composite material. The bridge is composed of several parts which were assembled using bolts, nuts and connection profiles.

The 5 roofs, designed to look like dove wings, were not achievable using conventional materials. The option of using concrete material measured over 1m in thickness. This would have resulted in far too much weight for the building to sustain.
