The arrival of precast concrete and fast-track construction has resulted in an increased demand for high early strength specialist products. This fast drying cement offers consistent, superior performance in all applications where quick mould turn-around or formwork stripping times are required.
Features and Benefits
- Milled to a carefully controlled fineness and contains a chloride-based strength modifier to ensure higher early strengths
- The higher fineness implies that a larger surface area is available to react with water. This increases the rate of hydration, resulting in higher early-strength development
- High early-strength
- Perfect for use in cold weather conditions due to its rapid hydration rate
Applications
Its high early strength makes it ideal for:
- Precast concrete industry where quicker demoulding times are required
- For fast-track construction projects to facilitate earlier stripping of formwork, earlier bridge launching or higher sliding rates
