Lafarge cements are ideal for general purpose concreting, and for applications where there are specialised requirements such as early strength, cold weather working, sulphate resistance, etc
A Portland cement containing calcium aluminate to give rapid hardening and setting properties:
- for repair and maintenance where rapid hardening is required, eg, fence posts, setting manholes, repairs to paths and steps.
- suitable for concrete, mortar, rendering and floor screeds.
- takes foot traffic in 4-6 hours and vehicular traffic in 8-12 hours.
Controlled fineness cement
CEM II/B-V 32,5R
A Portland-fly ash cement with a high sulfate resistance and a moderate heat of hydration. Particularly suitable for:
- reducing damage to concrete, mortar and grout exposed to sulfate attack and minimising the risk of alkali silica reaction.
- reducing the thermally-induced stresses in large pours.
- concrete exposed to the marine environment.
