SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTS AND SOLUTIONS

ActionCem contains 35–50% mineral additives and features a low clinker ratio and reduced carbon footprint, contributing to the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. It has high resistance to harmful environmental conditions, particularly in sulfate-rich environments. With excellent characteristics such as easy workability and long-term strength development, it provides practical advantages to applicators.

Solidcem is a fine ground cement ideal for ground reinforcement (injection) applications. It does not foam during injection and offers resistance to sulfates and alkali-silica reactions. It has an optimal setting time, low heat of hydration, and a reduced risk of thermal cracking. Containing 21–35% mineral additives, it results in approximately 15% fewer greenhouse gas emissions during production. Its high durability, especially in sulfate-rich conditions, along with its ease of application and long-term performance, makes Solidcem a low-emission, user-friendly product.

Duocem contributes to sustainability with its stable performance, high fineness (void-filling effect), improved workability and slump retention, and low heat of hydration (particularly suitable for mass concrete and hot weather applications). With up to 20% mineral additives, Duocem has a 10% lower carbon footprint than traditional Portland cement. This makes it both environmentally-friendly and effective in supporting emissions reduction.
