OPTIMIX has been providing HKHA projects with various products for their estate improvement programme and in-flat maintenance services, thus providing a safe and comfy living environment for the residents and extending the life of the building. Recently we supplied Prebatched Concrete and Skimcoat to Tin Shui Estate, Tin Shui Wai for building improvements and units repair:     1. The repair in rooftop water tanks requires concrete stumps, yet due to the location being a rooftop and material consumption is rather limited, using a concrete truck is not cost and time effective. Therefore, the contractor chose the OPTIMIX PC30 Prebatched Concrete (Standard) in 40kg bag. This product complies with Hong Kong Buildings Department Code of Practice for Structural Use of Concrete 2013, and also attained the mix ID from Public Works Laboratories under CEDD, which allows us to supply this product to HKHA projects anytime. What's so special about prebatched concrete is that, other than no location restriction, the quality of concrete is consistent and stable, greatly enhancing the project's flexibility, including but not limited to costs and working time.         2. The vacant premises in the estate require interior wall and ceiling plaster finish, the contractor adopted OPTIMIX SC273 Skimcoat (Putty for Paint), replacing the traditional lime putty with unstable quality. Our special formula makes it easy to polish and allows a highly efficient and time-saving application. Besides, the damp & mould resistance and low VOC content makes it very suitable for residential, commercial and public buildings.   If you have any questions for prebatched concrete and skimcoat, you are welcome to be in contact with us! We will soon continue providing different solutions for repair projects.

Situated in Hong Kong West Kowloon Cultural District, the construction of main building of M+ Museum has been completed and is expected to open towards the end of 2021. Neighboring the Victoria Harbor, the museum has 18 storeys with a gross area of 650,000 sq ft., which includes an exhibition center of 170,000 sq ft. The building houses multiple exhibition halls, theaters, research centers and a rooftop garden that captures the scenic view of Victoria Harbor.   The M+ Museum is designed by the world-renowned architecture firm Herzog & de Meuron collaborating with TFP Farrells and Arup, being the world’s second largest contemporary visual culture museum after The Centre Pompidou in Paris in 1977.   Fully supporting this benchmark project, OPTIMIX has supplied M+ with our comprehensive product range including Base Plaster, Skimcoat, Tile Adhesive, Tile Grout, Floor Screed and Non-shrink Grout.   Other than the green building designs in areas outside the exhibits, the major energy-saving design is applied to the collection area in the building, in order to realize the goal of preserving exhibits sustainably.  When building the M+ Museum, the Hong Kong construction environment assessment specification BEAM Plus is followed, dedicated to not only sustainability but also practicality. Integrated Sustainable Building Design (ISBD) has also been an essential part in the M+ design process. Through integrating architectural and construction stages, mechanics and other technologies, energy consumption and greenhouse gas emission is reduced to the minimum.   Sustainable development is a key that OPTIMIX highly values, and it is also a belief and promise that we share.   We work hard in the aspects of environmental friendliness and sustainable development, being a sponsoring patron of HKGBC, our products are also recognized by the Eco-Product Directory of HKGBC.   We fully utilize the geographical advantages of a manufacturing plant in Dongguan, by choosing materials that are within the region it can reduce the cost, transportation energy and related pollutions, and also support the local economy. Advocating the green building in M+ project, the BEAM score is therefore increased.
