Cement Blends

Replacing a percentage of the cement with Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag (GGBS) or Fly Ash produces a significantly less permeable concrete with improved resistance to aggressive conditions as well as improved handling and placing.

Applications Include:

Products Icon
Marine structures
Products Icon
Large civil engineering projects
Products Icon
Floor slabs and large pours
Products Icon
Structures liable to chloride attack

Water Reducing Admixtures (WRA’s)

Admixtures are materials added to concrete during the mixing process to modify its properties in the fresh and hardened state. The addition of a WRA (also called plasticiser) produces a stronger and more durable concrete without the need for high cement contents.

Applications Include:

Products Icon
Direct finish floor-slabs for commercial use
Products Icon
High quality formwork finishes
Products Icon
Water resistant concrete
Products Icon
Pouring of footings and congested areas e.g. walls, columns etc

High Range Water Reducing Admixtures (HRWR’s)

HRWRA’s (also called Superplasticisers) are used to produce concretes with a high consistence without the need for additional water, they are also used for the production of high strength concrete.

Applications Include:

Products Icon
Heavily reinforced sections
Products Icon
Deep sections where normal compaction is difficult
Products Icon
High quality formwork finishes
Products Icon
High Strength Concrete

Air Entraining Agents (AEA’s)

These admixtures produce evenly distributed minute air bubbles throughout the concrete to give a durable concrete resistant to freeze/thaw damage.

Applications Include:

Products Icon
Paths, yards & drives
Products Icon
Concrete Roads
Products Icon
Most other external ground-slabs and paved areas

Foaming Agents

These products are used to generate high volumes of air in a mix, typically 15% to 25% although up to 70% is attainable using a preformed foam. The resulting concrete has a relatively low strength but is extremely fluid.

Applications include:

Products Icon
Reinstatement of road openings (trenches)
Products Icon
Filling redundant sewers, cellars and other voids
Products Icon
Filling disused fuel tanks
Products Icon
Insulation concrete

Pumped

CEMEX Readymix offer specially designed mixes suitable for pumping, the height and length to be reached should be specified to the pump hire company as this will determine the size of pump to be supplied.

Applications Include:

Products Icon
High-Rise
Products Icon
Restricted areas or over long distance
Products Icon
High Strength fluid concretes

Pozzolans

Metakaolin and microsilica concretes provide considerably enhanced performance characteristics, including improved durability and strength as well as greater mix stability.

Applications Include:

Products Icon
High strength concrete
Products Icon
High abrasion resistant floors
Products Icon
Repair work
