Value Added Products
Our comprehensive array of products and services positions our ready mix and concrete company as a versatile and reliable partner in the construction industry.
Early Strength Concrete
The production of early and high strength concrete technology results in significant advantages:
– Faster construction time
– Lower concrete consumption (when thinner elements can be designed)
– Improved site capacity by increasing
formwork rotation
– Improved service life of structure
Roller Compacted Concrete
Concrete compa cted by roller compaction; concrete that in its unhardened state will support a roller while being compacted.”
Speed of Construction
– Durability
– Low Maintenance
– Competitive Cost
– Sustainability
No-Fines Concrete
Concrete made without sand and therefore containing ahigh proportion of communicating pores which provide
– Drainage
– Thermal insulation
– Competitive Cost
– Filtration
Self Compacted Concrete
Using self-compacting concrete produce several benefits and advantages over regular concrete. Some of those benefits are:
- Improved constructability.
- Improved structural Integrity
- Accelerates project schedules
- Reduces skilled labor
- Flows into complex forms
- Reduces equipment wear
- CMinimizes voids on highly reinforced areas.
- Produces superior surface finishes.
- Superior strength and durability.
- Allows for easier pumping procedure.
- Fast placement without vibration or mechanical consolidation.
- Produces a uniform surface.
Shotcrete Concrete
Shotcrete is concrete (or sometimes mortar) conveyed through a hose and pneumatically projected at high velocity onto a receiving surface.
The shotcrete process is popular in many
- industries pools, theme parks
- skate parks
- underground tunneling
- retaining walls
Colored Concrete
Concrete mixed with colored cement or to which pigment has been added during mixing.
- Improved constructability
- Resist surface abrasion, color will not wear away
- Color extends throughout the entire concrete slab
- Chemically stable and won’t fade over time from exposure to the weather or ultraviolet light
Foamed Concrete
Foamed concrete can be produced with dry densities of 400 to 1600 kg/m³, with 7-day strengths of approximately 1 to 4 N/mm² respectively. Foam concrete is fire resistant, and its thermal and acoustical insulation properties make it ideal for a wide range of purposes, from insulating floors and roofs, benefits are:
- Weight reduction of superstructure using foam concrete walls: less steel reinforcements concrete
- Environmentally friendly/Energy savings
- Cost reduction for transportation and storage: Less raw materials, very efficient foam concentrate
- Improved thermal insulation: Foam concrete can achieve the same insulation results as normal concrete with only 20% of the weight and 10% of raw materials
- Reduced cost of raw materials: By adding air, enclosed in foam bubbles, the volume of concrete can be increased at very low cost
- Easy to use/ produce/ handle
- Faster construction using cast-in-situ application
- Improved fire protection
Plaster
Plaster is a building material used for the protective and/or decorative coating of walls and ceilings and for molding and casting decorative elements. Benefits of Plaster:
- Protective & Decorative Element
- Workability up to 48H
- Competitive Cost
- Speed of Construction
Heavy Weight Concrete
Heavyweight concrete has been used for the prevention of seepage from radioactive structures due to the harmful effect of radioactive rays
to living bodies (i.e., carcinogenic, etc.).
- Improved structural Integrity
- ballasting for pipelines and similar structures. EN 206:2013
Polymeric Concrete Fiber Technology
The addition of structural fibers in concrete improves the structural performance in the early ages and once hardened. The fiber controls plastic and drying shrinkage and improves the structural response to tensile, bending and shear providing a ductile failure. It also improves fatigue and impact resistance, with high impact absorption capacity as well as better fire resistance. These improvements are achieved with a polymer fiber technology of different natures, completely corrosion-free, non-magnetic, and 100% alkali resistant
- Reduced costs in the casting process / or avoid costs such as pumping concrete (paving), labor cost of handling steel reinforcement
- The use of structural fibers is less expensive than using steel fibers. Assuming, therefore, a direct benefit
- Cost reduction for transportation and storage: Less raw materials, very efficient foam concentrate
- Higher accuracy in dimensioning of the reinforcement achieving a more efficient production process from a sustainable and economic point of view
- Higher flexibility in production
