Aggregate Industries has launched its latest range of high early strength concretes.
Designed for use in structural, void-fill, pavement and track bed applications, the Strike+ range offers high ultimate strength in various levels of consistency. Its great durability also makes it essential in construction projects such as road, rail and infrastructure.
Other key properties include high resistance to chlorides, low surface absorption, low shrinkage and high freeze thaw resistance.
David Porter, Area Manager Concrete (East Midlands) at Aggregate Industries, said: "With a greater onus on contractors to deliver ever more complex builds to tighter budgets and reduced deadline, 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. Its rapid setting times enables users to dramatically increase their productivity when building carriageway replacements, airport hard standings, warehouses, precast structures.
"It also provides the enhanced strength and long-wearing properties required on many infrastructure projects. We'd urge all our customers, new and existing, to make the most of this new innovative range of concrete solutions."
