Overview

OPTEC® — Performance Enhancement for architectural CMU and hardscapes

Most hardscape producers battle efflorescence on a daily basis. Our OPTEC® line of admixtures are designed to control all types of efflorescence. At the same time they also help improve colour intensity and physical properties. With OPTEC®, the end product is strong, durable and repels water. And, of course, all OPTEC® admixtures make concrete highly workable to lower production cycle times.

QUANTEC® — A complete range of solutions for high-volume producers of low-slump and no-slump concrete

Our QUANTEC® line admixtures provide a multitude of benefits including improved plasticity and machinability, which results in greater throughput, enhanced compressive strength and durability and reduced absorption.
