High early strength cements for precasters: boosting worksite productivity
LafargeHolcim has developed an advanced range of high early strength cements to help precasters build faster and in a more efficient way. Our cements are an economic solution to improve worksite productivity: thanks to their specific formula, precasters benefit from faster demolding times and increased cycles. Their rapid hardening properties also allow fast concreting, even in cold weather, on major infrastructure projects (airports, roads).
Masonry cements and mortars for improved plastering quality and more efficient construction
Suitable for many construction applications, roof tiling, rendering, and brick or block laying, LafargeHolcim’s masonry cements and mortars are easier to work and offer reliable plastering quality and better finish with fewer hollows. The result: quicker and cleaner worksites, lower construction cost, and more efficient operations. They also incorporate low clinker content, thus contributing to a reduction in buildings’ carbon footprint.
Ultra fine, white, sulfate resisting cements: our solutions for each infrastructure project
Every infrastructure project is different, and each client has different expectations of cements. This is why LafargeHolcim has brought together a series of high level cements for specific applications that can meet each project’s requirements:
- Ultrafine products for cost-effective repairs and water ingress prevention
- White cements to create unique architectural designs
- Sulfate-resisting cements for applications subject to sulfate attack or seawater: ports, sewage treatment structures, underground structures, etc.
