It is with genuine pride and satisfaction that we announce that in the recent “Latvian Construction Annual Award 2025” competition, the Jēkabpils protective dam reconstruction project received the highest recognition and the prestigious Grand Prix in the nomination “Civil Engineering Structure – Reconstruction”!

The Jēkabpils protective dam is not only a historically significant site, but also a critically important part of the city’s infrastructure that ensures the safety of residents every day and protects the city from natural disasters. In a project of this scale and with this level of responsibility, every detail and every material is of crucial importance.

We are pleased that building materials manufactured by LODE were specifically selected and used in the reconstruction of this strategically important protective dam. This choice once again confirms the high quality and reliability of our products, as well as their ability to ensure maximum durability, even in the most demanding engineering projects.

A well-considered choice, a lasting value

The reconstruction of complex civil engineering structures requires materials that can withstand heavy loads and changing weather conditions. The use of LODE clinker pavement stones in the Jēkabpils protective dam project guarantees:

• Longevity — reliable service over many years;
• Consistent quality — resistance to environmental factors and moisture;
• Safety — the stability needed to protect the city.

We would like to thank all of our partners, clients, designers, and builders for their contributions, professionalism, and successful collaboration, that has enabled us to achieve this high and well-deserved recognition. Together, we are building a safer, higher-quality, and more organised future.
