What Anivip does

ANIVIP (Asociación Nacional de Industriales de Vigueta Pretensada, A.C.) is a Mexican non-profit civil association that represents national manufacturers of pretensioned prefabricated concrete elements. Its member-product scope covers five core systems: vigueta pretensada, viga tubular, placa alveolar, placa TT and bovedilla, which are used in housing, commercial and infrastructure construction. The association operates as the sector's coordination point for technical standards, training and industry representation, and is one of the stewards of the NMX-C-406-ONNCCE-2013 standard for prefabricated concrete joists and related elements.

Its core activities include standards development, technical content production (Videoteca, Boletines, Blog), training via the Academia ANIVIP platform (academia-anivip.com.mx), recurring industry events such as Semana del Prefabricado, Expo Edeficare and periodic Congresses, and joint research with UNAM on seismic design of prefabricated systems. Strategic alliances with CANADEVI, SMIE, AMDROC, ASPRESE and CMIC extend its reach into housing developers, structural engineers and the broader Mexican construction chamber ecosystem. The association is headquartered in Miguel Hidalgo, Mexico City, and operates with a small staff of 11-50 employees.

Its business model is membership-based: producer firms pay recurring dues in exchange for representation, access to technical resources, training, standards stewardship and event participation. Ancillary revenue streams include event sponsorships and paid training through Academia ANIVIP. ANIVIP does not sell products directly and does not generate revenue from end buyers of construction materials; rather, it monetizes its role as the national coordination and standards body for the prefabricated concrete joist industry in Mexico.

Core offering

Anivip is a non-profit civil association (Asociación Civil) founded in 2007 and headquartered in Mexico City that represents manufacturers of pretensioned prefabricated concrete elements (vigueta pretensada) used in floors and roofing. The association advocates on behalf of its member companies, promotes industry standards, and facilitates collaboration among manufacturers in Mexico's construction materials sector. Member companies include ANSA Prefabricados, Grupo Compre, and ADW México.

Product overview

Anivip represents Mexico's prefabricated pretensioned concrete industry as a trade association. The organization supports member manufacturers producing five main prefabricated product categories: Vigueta Pretensada (pretensioned beams with solid or lattice web), Viga Tubular (tubular steel beams), Placa Alveolar (hollow core slabs), Placa TT (double-T slabs), and Bovedilla (voided blocks). These products are combined in floor systems like the Sistema de Vigueta y Bovedilla and larger span systems using tubular beams. The association also provides technical training, certification support, and engineering research services through its ANIVIP Academy platform (academia-anivip.com.mx). Anivip does not manufacture products itself; it promotes standards compliance (NMX norms), research, and professional development for its member companies.

Scale indicators2 records

Recent moves6 records

Expansion highlights4 records

Broad incumbents

• fib – International Federation for Structural Concrete: International federation of national structural concrete associations and technical bodies. Fib sets model codes and technical guidance that national associations like ANIVIP often reference or align with through their standards work.
• American Concrete Institute (ACI): Global authority on concrete technology, codes, and education. While broader than ANIVIP, ACI competes for technical authority and training revenue in markets where ANIVIP and PCI operate.

Regional players

• British Precast: U.K. trade association for the precast concrete industry, representing manufacturers and promoting standards, certification, and sustainability. Comparable in function to ANIVIP within the U.K. market.
• Cámara Mexicana de la Industria de la Construcción (CMIC): Mexican chamber of the construction industry and a strategic ally of ANIVIP. CMIC operates as a broader, more politically influential construction industry body, covering all trades rather than specializing in prefabricated concrete.
• Cámara Nacional de la Industria de Desarrollo y Promoción de Vivienda (CANADEVI): Mexican national chamber of housing developers, a strategic ally of ANIVIP. CANADEVI represents the buyer side of prefabricated concrete elements, complementing ANIVIP's producer-side mandate.
• ANDECE – Asociación Nacional de la Industria del Prefabricado de Hormigón: Spanish national association of the precast concrete industry, the closest European analog to ANIVIP in scope and membership model, focused on prefabricated and prestressed concrete producers in Spain.
• Canadian Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute (CPCI): Canadian national association for precast and prestressed concrete, offering certification, design manuals, and technical resources. Functionally equivalent to ANIVIP in the Canadian market.

Emerging players

• Sociedad Mexicana de Ingeniería Estructural (SMIE): Mexican Society of Structural Engineering, an allied technical body collaborating with ANIVIP on seismic design and code-related work. SMIE represents the technical design community that specifies the products ANIVIP's members produce.

Direct peers

• National Precast Concrete Association (NPCA): U.S. trade association representing precast concrete manufacturers, offering certification, sustainability programs, and technical resources. Directly comparable as a national membership body serving prefabricated concrete producers.
• Precast/Prestressed Concrete Institute (PCI): U.S.-based national trade association for the precast/prestressed concrete industry. PCI is the closest analog to ANIVIP at a larger scale, running certification, technical manuals, and standards bodies for prestressed concrete producers and design professionals.
