Advantages
  • Increases ultimate strength of concrete.
  • Improves workability of the concrete.
  • Decreases risk of segregation.
  • Extends the casting and placing time of concrete.
  • Provides smooth surface finish for concrete in the formwork without any segregation.
  • Prevents cold joints during concrete production with long casting time
Areas of Use
  • Ready mixed concrete production (with or without pump)
  • Hot weather concreting
  • Long distance concrete transportation
  • Production of various types of concrete such as reinforced, unreinforced, light or normal concrete
