workability
Improved strength and
long-term durability
First in the Philippines to
use Block Bottom Packaging
Environmentally friendly
Composed of clinker and
gypsum
The desired concrete
characteristics can be
modified from fresh to
hardened state making it
the best reinforcement for
industrial construction
Made by mixed Portland
cement clinker with a
certain percentage of
gypsum
The Portland cement clinker
is made by sintering a
precisely specified mixture
of raw materials
Reduces the water
requirement
Improves the workability of
the concrete
Develops strength longer
curing period
Comparatively lower heat
of hydration
Used for general concrete
construction when the
special properties specified
for any other type are not
required
Used for concrete
construction where high
strength at early ages is not
required
A masonry cement for
plastering, concrete hollow
block laying & filling, floor
tiles laying / setting, and
finishing
