About BETRA
BETRA Beton- und Baustoffverfahrenstechnik GmbH was founded in 1987 in Paderborn and is a specialist company of the chemical industry focused on the development and production of concrete additives and functional surface protection. The company counts itself among the leading providers of chemical additive systems for the concrete products industry. The product portfolio includes concrete additives based on silane and surfactant technology as well as fatty acids and oleic acid, protection systems for concrete surfaces, and cleaning and care products for concrete. At its headquarters in Bad Wünnenberg-Haaren, BETRA operates its own technical laboratory with roller coating and pulse-jet spray technology, UV and IR drying systems, as well as a surface laboratory completed in 2013 for the development of solvent-free coating systems. Customers include manufacturers of concrete products and mineral products. The company is a certified training company and cooperates with vocational schools and technical universities.
