Durable Construction For Generation
Home Contact Us Search Site Map
43 Grade Cement is the popular Brand Cement with low heat of hydration and long life of Concrete Structures.
ADVANTAGES

Develops early strength at 3 and 7 days with exceptionally high 28 days strength. Form work of slabs and beams can be removed much earlier which results in increased speed of construction.

Unbeatable consistency in quality gives better accountability for mix design

The higher characteristics strength of concrete leads to higher bond strength minimizing the possibility of slippage of reinforcements.

The dense and least permeable concrete prevents leakage / seepage problems.

Its high fineness offers better workability for a given water cement ratio ensuring very dense, compact and durable concrete.

Being the low alkali cement it provides insurance against alkali-aggregate reaction, this results in durable structures.

IDEAL APPLICATIONS
Residential and commercial complex.
PCC solid and hollow blocks
Defense Constructions
Airport-Runways
Cement tanks
Asbestos cement products
Concrete roads and Ferro-cement concrete elements
