DSM - More Information

Dry silo mortar combines all the benefits of factory produced mortar, such as consistent quality and colour, with technology to provide a convenient, highly efficient solution to your mortar requirements. Available in different strengths and colour options, all fully supported by the CEMEX team, dry silo mortar meets your needs.

The table below relates the mix designations, given in the withdrawn BS 4721, to the European description equivalent.

Colourful solutions

Where a coloured mortar is specified the control and accuracy of the pigment addition and mixing process ensures consistent dispersion throughout the mix. CEMEX Dry Silo Mortar is available in a wide range of colours to meet specific design requirements.

Find out more about the range of coloured mortar we can offer.

Manufacture

The dry silo mortar system is manufactured under a 3rd party accredited factory production control system, using the latest technology to provide you with a convenient mortar batching facility, with the following benefits:

  • Guaranteed colour and consistency
  • Clean and efficient production with reduced wastage and increased productivity.
  • Reduces manual handling and the risk of injury in production, for improved health and safety.

Durability and resistance

CEMEX Dry Silo Mortar is also extremely durable due to the controlled method of manufacture and the type and quality of the constituent materials used. The entrainment of controlled amounts of air makes the mortar less susceptible to frost attack. The admixture used is chloride-free and therefore not aggressive towards embedded metallic objects. Factory produced mortars exhibit superior resistance to rain penetration and therefore make a significant contribution to the durability of masonry.

Workability

CEMEX Dry Silo Mortar when blended with water offers excellent workability without an excessive air content, the inclusion of which can weaken the bond and flexural strength.

Case Studies

Dry Silo Mortar Provided for Wembley Park Regeneration

There will also be 7,000 new homes built, along with offices, a gym, a park, and possibly, a brand-new music venue
