  • What is the life span of cement?

    On average, cement life span is about three months. However, environmental conditions will affect cement. Ideally, cement should be stored in a dry, enclosed area, off the floor and protected from the elements.

  • How do I mix cement for my project?

    For the best outcome, it’s important that your mix proportions are accurate and suit the job that you are busy with. Each of our products is accompanied with a guide on how to achieve the best results for various applications.
