Steelike Inc. is a pioneering company in the realm of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC), established by Bill Kulish who has dedicated over 20 years to cementitious material design innovation. The journey began with his initial venture, Quintechs, LLC, where he explored concrete mixes for sculptural applications, leading him to discover the extraordinary properties of UHPC. After extensive experimentation and refinement, Kulish successfully developed a unique UHPC material that surpassed ASTM International standards and met Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) requirements. This achievement marked the commercialization of Steelike® UHPC in 2014, offering a new competitive product to the construction industry.
Steelike Inc. has since become synonymous with cutting-edge concrete technology, providing solutions that outmatch traditional concrete in both strength and longevity. With the tagline ‘UHPC Powered by Innovation™’, the company emphasizes its commitment to innovative mixing and placement methods which improve the speed and efficiency of projects while minimizing waste.
The product has been rigorously tested and is recognized for its application in significant infrastructure projects across the United States, including bridges and repairs to concrete structures. The flexibility in mixing and placement has allowed Steelike® UHPC to be deployed in a variety of construction scenarios, adapting to the specific needs of each project. As a testament to its quality, Steelike® UHPC has been endorsed by the FHWA in its design guidelines and is utilized in developing new structural design guidelines, enhancing the reliability of modern infrastructure.
Under the leadership of Chen Wang as CEO and Bill Kulish as President, Steelike Inc. remains at the forefront of UHPC technology. Together, they work towards increasing the applications and recognition of Steelike® UHPC, demonstrating its potential to revolutionize the construction industry with its superior properties and versatility.
