Meeting & exceeding performance needs
Combining performance and CO2 reduction
A comprehensive portfolio of solutions is available to extend the use of Supplementary Cementitious Materials in precast and improve the concrete durability once part of the final structure.
Enviromix® SE enhances the early stage of the cement & SCMs hydration to allow for higher use of lower carbon cements at same performance or for higher cement replacement. Additional benefits like eliminate accelerated curing, or decrease the time to release/demolding contribute to improve productivity and energy savings.
FORCE 10,000® D is a silica fume powder designed to increase concrete compressive and flexural strengths, increase durability, reduce permeability and improve hydraulic abrasion-erosion resistance.
HRMK 100 is a highly processed aluminosilicate pozzolanic mineral derived from the clay mineral kaolinite. It dramatically improves the overall durability of concrete, primarily by reducing permeability and increasing compressive and flexural strengths.

Productivity and Process Improvement
Improving quality, while increasing efficiency
Several solutions are available to improve the concrete quality and durability, and limiting concrete waste or leftover.
DARASET® 400 set accelerator may be used wherever it is desirable to reduce the setting time of concrete and/or to increase its early compressive and flexural strengths. With excellent placeability and workability, flow through congested forms without segregation, high early strength: there is an ADVA® CAST water reducer to meet all your needs.
RECOVER® is used to stabilize mixer wash water and returned or leftover concrete for extended periods, allowing for use of the materials when specified or allowed. It is also used where controlled extended set of concrete is needed.
PIERI® decorative solutions include in-form surface retarders, release agents and finish protectors that provide beautiful, consistent and long-lasting architectural finishes which result in a higher-quality finish that saves time and lasts longer.

Improving the durability and resiliency of concrete
Increased Service Life
Durability enhancing solutions offer incremental performance and benefits to concrete.
STRUX®, one of the most specified synthetic macro fibers, are a unique form of high strength, high modulus synthetic reinforcement that add toughness, impact and fatigue resistance to concrete and improve residual strength and durability.
DCI® corrosion inhibitor chemically inhibits the corrosive action of chlorides on reinforcing steel and prestressed strands in concrete. It also promotes strength development of the concrete and extends the service life of structures in a de-icing salt and marine environment.
ECLIPSE® shuts down shrinking, cracks and curling while increasing durability, lowering maintenance costs and extending structure service life.
