Concrete Admixtures for concrete-products industry

Plasticizers
As a pioneer in the development of plasticizers for earth-moist concretes for the production of top-quality, directly demolded concrete block products on fully automated production equipment in the vibro-compaction and pressing process, we offer you a selection of top-quality products.
Our Plasticizers – Made in Germany –
- accelerates and homogenizes the mold fillingÂ
- promotes compactibility
- increases green strength
- increases density, strength and durability
- reduces machine cycle times
- minimizes material costs
In addition, it significantly improves the quality & viability of
- Concrete pavers in accordance with EN 1338
- Paving slabs in accordance with EN 1339
- Curbstones in accordance with EN 1340
- Concrete pipes
- Building bricks
- Non-standard concrete components
