High Early Strength Cement


-Very high strength is desired at an early stage
-Use when the early remove remove framework is desired
-In cloud weather construction is due to reduce the time require for protection in low temperature
-Use in Road Pavement Works & Precast concrete casting (Beams, Columns etc)

Sulphate Resistant Cement
