Specialty Cements

Specialty cement, also known as alternative or advanced cement, is a group of construction materials with unique properties that make them suitable for specific applications. These cement differ from traditional Portland cement in their composition and manufacturing process. Specialty cement is produced by combining various raw materials, such as limestone, bauxite, clay, gypsum, and others, in specific ratios to create cement with particular characteristics.

Specialty cement offers unique properties and characteristics that make them ideal for specific construction applications. The fast setting and high early strength of ACA and CAC cement are ideal for precast concrete and emergency repair applications. CSA cement’s low shrinkage and high durability make it suitable for lightweight concrete structures. CSA expansive cement is used in grouting and concrete repair, while white cement is used in decorative and architectural applications.
