PARIS, June 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Saint-Gobain announces the next step in the expansion of its digital construction chemicals platform with the acquisition of Maturix, based in Denmark, a leading provider of real-time monitoring solutions for the concrete industry.
Maturix offers cutting-edge wireless sensor technology which allows remote real-time monitoring of concrete properties during the curing and hardening process, enabling contractors to optimize their operations and ease traceability requirements. This reduces the duration of the concrete construction cycle by up to 50% and improves job-site efficiency, all while improving concrete quality and ensuring a high level of structural performance. Maturix and Saint-Gobain have successfully collaborated since 2019.
This acquisition enhances Saint-Gobain's digital solutions offering across the concrete and cement value chains, enabling the Group's customers to reduce overdesign and optimize operations.
Saint-Gobain spearheaded the digital transformation of the concrete industry initiated by GCP with Verifi®, its market-leading digital in-transit concrete management suite, deployed across three continents (North America, Europe, and Asia-Pacific). Verifi® uses real-time monitoring to reduce waste, improve operational performance and drive cost efficiencies. Maturix perfectly complements Verifi® in optimizing concrete placement on site. The two companies are already working on a joint offering.
The acquisition of Maturix demonstrates the Group's commitment to expanding its offer of integrated digital solutions for its customers.
Sid Singh, CEO of Verifi®, comments:
"By combining the data and digital expertise of Maturix and Verifi® with Saint-Gobain's leadership in concrete admixtures, we will unlock new use cases for the Group's customers. We will provide them with personalized recommendations to manage their operations with increased visibility and precision to reduce their costs and environmental impact."

SAINT-GOBAIN ENHANCES ITS DIGITAL CONSTRUCTION CHEMICALS PLATFORM WITH THE ACQUISITION OF MATURIX
SAINT-GOBAIN ENHANCES ITS DIGITAL CONSTRUCTION CHEMICALS PLATFORM WITH THE ACQUISITION OF MATURIX
BEIJING, Jan. 11, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- On December 29, the "Forging the Path to National Strength: China's Manufacturing Achievements Under the 14th Five-Year Plan," jointly organized by the National Museum of China and the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, officially opened at the National Museum of China, showcasing more than 300 top national achievements. GAC's "National Outstanding Engineer Team" successfully developed both the Magazine Battery and the Solid-State Battery, which were selected for the exhibition.
The GAC Magazine Battery is the first battery system to pass both the nail penetration no-flame and non-ignition safety tests. By utilizing ultra-high intrinsic safety cells, an all-weather "vehicle-end + cloud-based" active safety monitoring system, and a multi-dimensional safety protection system, the Magazine Battery achieves three layers of protection: core, active, and passive. Its safety performance far exceeds the electric vehicles traction battery safety requirements (GB38031-2025), which will take effect on July 1, 2026. Currently, the Magazine Battery has a cumulative deployment of 1.3 million vehicles with zero spontaneous combustion and over 50 billion kilometers of safe travel, providing users with robust safety assurance for every journey.
GAC's self-developed large-capacity solid-state battery has achieved an energy density exceeding 400 Wh/kg and easily passes rigorous safety tests such as 200°C thermal chamber and nail penetration tests, effectively addressing users' range anxiety and safety concerns. Innovations in materials and processes have placed the solid-state battery at the forefront of the industry in key indicators such as safety, energy density, and cycle life, providing a superior power solution for the future development of NEVs. Currently, a pilot production line for GAC's solid-state battery has been established, capable of mass-producing vehicle-grade solid-state batteries over 60 Ah, marking a critical step toward the goal of full vehicle integration by 2026.
Over the years, GAC has been steadily enhancing its competitiveness through innovations across intelligent connectivity, NEV powertrains technologies, and forward-looking technologies. Looking ahead, GAC will continue to deepen its efforts in the intelligent connected NEV field, leveraging more leading technological achievements to drive industry progress.
