Admixtures & Additives

Our plasticisers enable you to reduce the water requirement of your concrete and/or improve its consistency.

MC superplasticisers ensure a substantial reduction in the water demand of your concrete and the achievement of consistency classes equal to or better than F4.

With our stabilizers, you are able to manufacture homogeneous concretes with reduced bleeding and a lower tendency towards segregation.

MC air-entrainment agents create uniformly distributed micro-pores in the concrete to increase its resistance to both frost and de-icing salts/thawing agents.

Our setting accelerators allow you to speed up the development of early strength values in your concrete.

MC retarders enable you to accurately control the hardening of your mortars and concretes.

With our water resting admixtures, you can enhance the hydrophobic nature of your concrete and avoid capillary water absorption.

Our retarding superplasticisers significantly reduce the water requirement of concrete, achieving consistency classes equal to or better than F4 while at the same time slowing the stiffening and hardening process.

Our viscosity modifiers improve internal cohesion, enabling you to limit the tendency of your concrete towards segregation.

We offer speciality admixtures that enable you to formulate mortars for extended pot life and workability.

Our grouting aids and expanding agents allow the formulation of easy-flowing yet slightly swelling injection mortars, e.g. for post-tensioning ducts.

MC accelerators for shotcrete enable you to achieve very early hardening combined with optimum shotcrete adhesion to the substrate with minimal bounce/ricochet.

With our foaming agents, you can reliably adjust the density in the production of lightweight pore concrete or very light mortar.

Fine-particle pozzolanic additives for high-performance concretes serve to enhance many service properties far beyond the requirements applicable to standard concretes.

With our defoamers, you are able to further reduce the air void content of your concrete and create largely non-porous fair-faced concrete surfaces.

Even though there is nothing wrong with the traditional polymer and bituminous concrete wateproofing systems, there come times when membranes and coatings are not applicable. Maybe the surface is not suitable, maybe the external conditions are not ideal or maybe there is just no need for it. In any case, internal waterproofing using admixtures can be a viable alternative.
