UK: Aggregate Industries has launched a new product range of high early strength concretes, specifically designed for use in structural, void-fill, pavement and track bed applications. The Strike+ range is available in four different strength settings in various levels of consistency, making it suitable for use with a number of placement methods including pump, skip and direct. The range also offers properties, including high resistance to chlorides, low surface absorption, low shrinkage and high freeze-thaw resistance.
“With a greater onus on contractors to deliver ever more complex builds to tighter budgets and reduced deadlines, speed, efficiency and durability during the construction process has never been more critical. That’s why we’ve launched our new Strike+ range of high early strength concretes,” said David Porter, Area Manager Concrete (East Midlands) at Aggregate Industries.
Strike+ products are manufactured and delivered using volumetric concrete mixers, with water only added to the mix at the point of use. The ranges consist of specially blended binders, PC52.5N CEM1 (BSEN 197) and carefully selected concrete aggregates (BSEN 1260).
