Bangladesh: LafargeHolcim Bangladesh has launched a new early strength rapid set cement known as Holcim Shokti. The company said that the product is the first on the Bangladeshi market to use rapid set technology to enhance its early strength by 50% within 48 hours, reduce its setting time by 15 – 25% and optimise water requirements. The producer estimates that project costs will fall by US$16.4/t of Holcim Shokti cement used compared to those of projects using ordinary Portland cement (OPC).

Holcim Shokti cement is available across Bangladesh in bagged form.
