CONCRETE ADMIXTURES

CE Construction Solutions is a trusted supplier to ready-mix concrete plants, supplying a comprehensive range of bulk admixtures designed with a focus on quality, consistency, and innovation.

Water Reducing Admixtures: 

Reduce the water content required in the mix, increasing strength and improving workability without changing the cement content. Commonly used for high-strength concrete projects.

Retarding Admixtures: 

Slows down the setting rate of concrete and improves workability. Especially useful in hot weather to prevent premature hardening during placement. 

Accelerating Admixtures: 

Speed up the setting and strength development of concrete, useful in cold weather or for projects that require quick turnaround.

Air Entraining Admixtures: 

Introduce uniform, tiny air bubbles into the concrete to improve durability, particularly in freeze-thaw conditions. This reduces the risk of cracking from expansion.

Superplasticisers (High Range Water Reducers):

Greatly increase fluidity without additional water, making concrete highly workable or self-leveling. Ideal for complex shapes and high-performance applications.

Corrosion Inhibitors:

Protect steel reinforcement within concrete from corrosion, commonly used in marine structures, bridges, and parking garages.

Waterproofing Admixtures

These additives enhance concrete’s resistance to water penetration by creating a crystalline structure within the concrete’s pores and capillaries. The crystalline formations expand upon contact with water, filling and sealing voids to prevent water ingress. 

CarbonCure CO₂

Injects captured carbon dioxide into the concrete mix, where it reacts with calcium ions to form calcium carbonate, permanently trapping the CO₂ and strengthening the concrete. This eco-friendly admixture reduces the carbon footprint of concrete and enhances durability, making it ideal for sustainable construction projects.
