Cement
Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC)
- Available in grades 33, 43, and 53 (based on compressive strength in MPa).
- Uses: Residential, commercial construction, plastering, etc.
Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC)
- More durable and resistant to chemical attacks.
- Uses: Dams, marine structures, sewage works.
Rapid Hardening Cement
- Used for speedy construction or when early strength is needed.
Uses: Road repairs, precast structures.
Oil Well Cement
- Designed for use in oil and gas wells under high pressure and temperature.
White Cement
- Similar to OPC but made from raw materials with low iron oxide content.
Uses: Decorative works, tile grouting, architectural finishes.
Low Heat Cement
- Produces less heat during setting – used in mass concrete pours (dams, large footings).
Minimizes risk of cracking.
Sulphate Resisting Cement
- Used in areas with high sulphate content in soil or water.
Prevents chemical deterioration in concrete.
Hydrophobic Cement
- Treated to repel water during storage.
Suitable for long-distance transport or damp climates.
Quick Setting Cement
- Sets faster than OPC but has normal strength.
Uses: Underwater construction, cold or rainy areas.
