ABOUT US

Concrete admixtures reduce the cost of construction, modify properties of hardened concrete, ensure quality of concrete during mixing, transporting, placing, and curing, and overcome certain emergencies during concrete operations.

1. Water reducers

2. Set accelerators

3. Air entrainers

4. Set retarders

5. Superplasticizers

6. Specialty admixtures: corrosion inhibitors, shrinkage control, alkali-silica reactivity inhibitors, and coloring.
