Kryton Hard-Cem - Enhances concrete wear and abrasion resistance
Hard-Cem® is a concrete additive that improves abrasion and erosion resistance, doubling wear life and reducing repair needs. Its unique microstructure integrates into the mix, enhancing durability while lowering costs and the carbon footprint over time.
Applications
- Industrial
- Infrastructure & Community
- Mining, Oil & Gas
- Agriculture
- Hydro
- Manufacturing
- Any areas where a durable, hard-wearing floor is needed.
Why Hard-Cem?
High Performace
Hard-Cem offers unparalleled durability, especially in terms of abrasion and erosion resistance. It outlasts standard concrete by decades and is ideal for high-traffic areas, heavy loads, and industrial applications.
Cost Effective
Unlike traditional dry shake and liquid densifiers, Hard-Cem is incorporated into the concrete at the batching plant, streamlining the application process, cutting costs related to extra floor treatments or special finishing on-site, and removing the risk of delamination over time.
Low Risk
Hard-Cem’s warranty guarantees that the concrete will remain abrasion-resistant for a minimum of 20 years. It has no adverse impact on the concrete’s water demand, workability, set time, strength development, or shrinkage, and does not affect concrete admixtures, SCMs, or other ingredients.
Versatile
Hard-Cem is effective with cast-in-place, precast, and shotcrete applications, whether horizontal, vertical, or inclined.
Safe
No toxic chemicals (e.g., silica dust) are handled on-site, thereby reducing health and safety risks.
Sustainable
Hard-Cem allows producers to substantially reduce carbon emissions by using less cement, decreasing the need for carbon-intensive repairs, and delaying demolition along with the associated release of carbon for decades.
