DuraMon continues to grow in the DACH region

(CONNECT) DuraMon AG has successfully completed its latest project: An underground parking garage in Innsbruck is the first in Austria in which the spin-off of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, founded in 2021, has installed its sensor technology. According to a company statement, a monitoring system with 160 sensors will monitor the corrosion status of critical areas and provide an early warning when intervention may be necessary. "By focusing on potentially critical zones - such as those with high chloride levels and moisture - the solution enables a deeper understanding of the condition of the building," says the young company, which moved into its first own premises in Dietikon a year ago.

With DuraMon's monitoring system, those responsible can determine whether corrosion has already begun in areas at risk. A "strong step towards data-based maintenance", comments Cem Güzel, Key Account Manager Sika Austria, on the announcement of the completion of the Innsbruck project.

The Austrian subsidiary of the Swiss specialty chemicals company has reportedly brokered it to DuraMon. Sika is a key investor in the young company and has participated in both the 2023 and 2025 early financing rounds. In its portfolio, the Baar-based company offers DuraMon corrosion monitoring to operators of large infrastructure projects.

DuraMon is already planning further parking lot projects. In addition, sensors are currently being placed on two retaining walls in Vienna, according to an article by "startupticker.ch", to which DuraMon refers. The eleven-strong team is currently overseeing 27 ongoing projects. In addition, the company has recently won four tenders. Half of its projects are in Switzerland and the other DACH countries. At the same time, DuraMon is working on further scaling the platform: the automation of data analysis and interpretation processes should increase efficiency and scalability. ce/mm
