Sinclair Construction Reinvents Concrete with launch of MEGASLABâ„¢ Jointless Concrete
MEGASLAB™ Jointless Concrete System utilizes ground-breaking nanotechnology to create an incredibly dense and impermeable slab, eliminating the need for control joints and their associated costs and challenges--a game changer in the world of robotics and automation.
Sinclair Construction Group has announced the launch of MEGASLABâ„¢ Jointless Concrete System. The patent-pending formula in MEGASLAB features ground-breaking technology paired with powerful admixtures that create an incredibly dense and impermeable slab, eliminating the need for installing control joints and their associated costs.
Because control joints lead to costly challenges like curling and spalling, slabs with control joints require more maintenance and upkeep, often leading to ongoing equipment repair, and reduced productivity. Traditional concrete slabs that include rebar and control joints also greatly limit the ability to develop and place the most optimized racking and robotic schematics. MEGASLAB is a complete concrete system that utilizes sophisticated nanotechnology paired with a proprietary blend of durable and flexible admixtures. The result is an impermeable jointless slab with exceptional tensile strength and durability for the heaviest loads and equipment.
According to Jason Adams, CEO of Sinclair and creator of MEGASLAB, "I am confident that in due time MEGASLABâ„¢ will revolutionize the concrete construction industry. The team I have brought together includes renowned industry experts, and through extensive testing and field validation, weve developed a world class concrete product with leading edge innovation. I am so confident in the performance of MEGASLABâ„¢ that I am offering an industry first 10-year warranty."
The introduction of MEGASLAB has been creating some buzz in the industry, with many interested in its application. A major installation is planned for early November, with additional projects forecasted before the end of the year. MEGASLAB is a game changer for industries such as logistics, industrial, food/beverage, aviation, automatic storage & retrieval systems (ASRS), robotics, and many others.
About MEGASLAB
MEGASLABâ„¢ was conceived by Sinclair Construction Group CEO Jason Adams and Sylvester Schmidt, a world-renowned expert in concrete technology. The development of MEGASLAB is the culmination of their tireless pursuit to reinvent concrete, improving the industry for the next generation. MEGASLABs patent-pending concrete formula marries sophisticated nanotechnology with proprietary admixtures to create an impermeable jointless slab, eliminating the need for rebar and control joints, which drastically reduces installation and maintenance costs.

Featured Product
3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
