Amrize launched its EVERtect high-performance concrete range at ConExpo-Con/Agg.
The launch occurred nearly nine months after Amrize completed its spinoff from Holcim.
“We are proud to introduce EVERtect, our high-performance concrete range providing our customers with the confidence, reliability and innovation they need for every job,” says Jaime Hill, president of Amrize Building Materials. “With EVERtect, we are redefining what builders and specifiers across North America can expect from high-performance concrete – delivering smarter solutions to accelerate projects and increase flexibility, underpinned by the consistent performance our customers know they can rely on.”
The new mixes include ECOtect, SUPERtect, FLUIDtect, RAPIDtect, MAXtect, IMAGItect, CONDUtect and TEMPtect.
ECOtect is a low-carbon concrete that offers at least a 30 percent lower-carbon footprint than standard concrete, according to Amrize. SUPERtect is a concrete mix with high strength (8,000 to 14,500 psi), durability and rigidity (minimum 5,800 psi), which the company says is ideal for demanding structural applications.
FLUIDtect is a proprietary, self-consolidating concrete mix enabling ease of placement, superior finish and efficient construction, according to Amrize.
RAPIDtect is a high early-strength concrete designed to reach specified strength sooner, delivering rapid performance gains that improve on-site productivity and helping projects stay on schedule.
MAXtect combines an ultra-high performance cementitious matrix and high-strength fibers, providing maximum performance in mechanical properties, durability and aesthetics, Amrize says.
IMAGItect is a high-performance decorative concrete that supports architectural projects for homeowners, architects and landscapers. Amrize says IMAGItect is highly durable, low maintenance and comes in a range of colors, patterns and textures.
CONDUtect is specifically designed to dissipate heat generated by buried cables supplying electrical power to data centers and other high-demand facilities. TEMPtect is engineered to withstand extreme temperatures, according to Amrize, and it can help extend the construction season into winter and summer months when conditions are challenging for concrete placement.
As part of Amrize’s continued focus on its EVERtect line, its next concrete offering, NEXtect, will soon join the EVERtect range.
