CEM I – PORTLAND CEMENT

Ordinary Portland cement (OPC) which is now called Portland cement is the most commonly used cement for a wide range of applications. Iron Built Portland Cement surpasses the requirements of BDS EN 197-1:2000 CEM-I 52.5 N Grade. It is produced from high-quality clinker ground with high purity gypsum. Iron Built Portland Cement provides high strength and durability to structures because of its optimum particle size distribution, superior crystalline structure, and balanced phase composition.

FUNCTIONAL BENEFITS

Strength

The early strength of a cement is the compressive strength developed in 3 days or 7 days, Iron Built Portland Cement gains strength very fast, above 3000 psi within 3 days

Strength Consistency

Consistency is the Key feature of Iron Built Portland Cement. It has been experienced in regular BUET, Own and other tests resulting strength with proper concrete mix design.

Faster Setting

Iron Built Portland Cement sets faster – gets your construction done well and saves your valuable time.

Free from
Unsoundness

Cement exhibiting expansion are classified as unsound. As Iron Built Portland Cement contains no extra additive it is free from unsoundness.

Lower Insoluble
Residue

Lower percent of insoluble residue <1% ensures high quality of clinker and gypsum and free from foreign particles.

“It has undergone rigorous tests in our own laboratories, BUET, and other testing facilities, which resulted in the perfect strength with proper concrete mix design.”

APPLICATION

Iron Built Portland Cement is ideal for the construction of heavy load-bearing structures, i.e. bridges, prestressed elements, precast elements, etc.
