Retardation of the concrete initial set time up to 24 hours and even more, allowing easy operation & compaction, also in hot weather.
Fields of application

- Admixture for concrete pumping & ready mixed concrete and mix in site, concrete transporting for longer distance, especially in warm weather.
- Fulfilling the Slip Form by CONTROLING the setting between morning and night shifts, winter and summer.
