Mass Concreting
Lifespan, workability retention & shrinkage control of the concrete.
The construction of floating concrete caissons requires specific performances, such as the consistency of high flowability concrete, at will workability retention and high durability to withstand marine environment conditions.
CHRYSO offers a range of macro and micro-fibres for reinforcing such structures while reducing the risk for corrosion.
CHYSO®Optima1000 superplasticisers are designed to offer high levels of performance such as extended workability retention, cohesiveness and high placeability.
The EnviroMix® range enables the production of low-carbon concrete by improving the use of new-generation binders to reduce the carbon footprint of concrete.
Decades of experience (The New Coastal Highway – La Réunion, Monaco’s caissons, etc.) in durability guaranteed concrete combine with our range of durability enhancement admixtures such as DCI® allows for meeting the most challenging project requirements.
CHRYSO®Maturix technology enables the hydration of concrete to be monitored in order to optimise stripping times and guaranty durability.

Local Sourcing
Fostering a circular economy through local supply streams.
What if concrete producers could extend the possibilities of sourcing aggregates and sands closer to their production facilities with no compromise on concrete quality?
CHRYSO®Quad Water Reducers enable the use of complex aggregates: high clay contaminated sands, or recycled aggregates, sands with lacking fines, 100% manufactured sands’ and increasing the ratio of sands containing an excessive or too low proportion of fines.
This technology offers concrete producers access to local supply streams and foster circular economy solutions.

Gravity Foundations
Lifespan, workability retention & shrinkage control of the concrete.
The complexity of so-called “gravity” foundations raises a number of issues, from the pouring of the concrete to its lifespan once immersed.
CHRYSO offers a range of macro and micro-fibres for reinforcing such structures while reducing the risk for corrosion.
CHYSO®Optima1000 superplasticisers are designed to offer high levels of performance such as extended workability retention, cohesiveness and high placeability.

Precast Plant
High performance concrete, quality control and reduction of carbon footprint.
Wind turbine construction continues to increase around the planet, larger structures and harsh exposition conditions require best structure performance and extreme durability. Our extensive portfolio allows for complying with the most ambitious requirements.
Precast elements fabricated with our range of superplasticisers (CHRYSO®Premia + AdvaCast®) answer to requirements such as excellent finishing surface with best placeability and optimum productivity.
Early strengths are granted for element transportation with our CHRYSO®Xel / Daraccel® range of accelerators.
Durability is enhanced with our last generation of fibres and our range of corrosion inhibitors (DCI®).Surface high quality and aesthetics are granted with our complete range of release agents.
