Some of our sustainable solutions
MasterEase
Superplasticizers for low-viscosity concrete
A family of advanced superplasticizers that help produce concrete with lower viscosity and improved workability, thus allowing for better manipulation or further water reduction and strength enhancement or to overcome the challenges when using increased amounts of supplementary cementitious materials (SCM) to reduce carbon footprint.
MasterSuna
Solutions for challenging raw materials
A range of water-reducing admixtures that enable the use of recycled aggregates or low-spec sand (clay contaminated, crushed recycled aggregates) in concrete, supporting circularity and preserving natural resources.
Master X-Seed
Advanced concrete hardening accelerator
Concrete strength enhancing admixtures increasing the strength of concrete, reducing the total quantity of cement required, and enabling a higher proportion of SCM.
