SikaPaver®-1 C+

High performance admixture and compaction aid for semidry/no slump concrete products

  SikaPaver®-1 C+ is a high performance compaction aid for semi-dry/no-slump concrete

SikaPaver®-1 C+ offers substantial benefits to the producer of semi-dry/no slump concrete products:
  • Efficient dispersion and distribution of cement, additives and pigments
  • Give high early strength to wet concrete
  • Improved movement of the concrete through the machine (faster mould filling)
  • Optimized compaction with shorter pressing time and increased output[shorter production cycle]
  • Minimized friction between the mould and the concrete [ Reductions in equipment wear and tear ]
  • Reduced adhesion/stickiness between top layer concrete and pressing head/tamper (equipment/tools)
  • Increased “green” strength on immediate de-moulding [ keeps the shape of freshly de-moulded semi-dry concrete products because it prevents slumping after de-moulding ]
  • More economic concrete mix designs
  • Create superior products.

Usage

SikaPaver®-1 C+ is used for producing optimized coloured semi-dry/no slump concrete with very low water content. Semi-dry/no-slump concrete production is generally used in the manufacture of machine-made concrete products associated with instant de-moulding such as:
  • Block Paving (grey / coloured)
  • Cement Tiles (grey / coloured)
  • Paving flags
  • Kerb stones
  • Edgings and other items for garden and landscape design
  • Building blocks and bricks
