Meeting & exceeding performance needs
Combining performance and CO2 reduction
A comprehensive portfolio of solutions is available to extend the use of Supplementary Cementitious Materials in precast and improve the concrete durability once part of the final structure.
Quad® Water Reducers enable using recycled aggregates, up to 100% manufactured sands and increasing the ratio of sands containing an excessive or too low proportion of fines.Quad® offers excellent resistance to the effects of swellable clays, such as smectites on aggregates and enhance the use of locally available aggregates.
This technology offers precast concrete producers access to local and more responsible supply streams and foster circular economy solutions.
Chryso®Dem is a range of release agents enabling our customers to improve the facing of their concrete elements as well as their productivity while ensuring health & safety of operators.
Using components from the industry (rapeseed, sunflower, etc.), vegetable-based release agents offer a good HSE profile, high coating quality, and easy spraying. Chryso provides a complete range of release agents tailored to various applications.
Chryso®Dem Evia and Chryso®Dem Ekla are vegetable-based release agents that offer a superior HSE profile, excellent surface finish quality, and easy application.

Improving productivity and process
Improving quality, while increasing efficiency
Several solutions are available to improve the concrete quality, durability and limiting concrete waste or leftover.
Chryso®Daraccel & Chryso®Daraset accelerators may be used wherever it is desirable to reduce the setting time of concrete and/or to increase its early compressive and flexural strengths. This accelerators can be used in combination with Chryso®AdvaCast EMx & Premia EMx with excellent placeability and workability properties.
Pieri® decorative solutions include in-form surface retarders and finish protectors that provide beautiful, consistent and long-lasting architectural finishes which result in a higher-quality finish that saves time and lasts longer.
Chryso®Maturix is a global service offer to optimize the benefits of real-time concrete monitoring for value-added concrete

Reduce CO2 impact, improving durability and long-term crack control properties
Increase project life span, reduce construction time and labor cost
Adfil® synthetic macro-fibers and micro-fibers reduce CO2 impact, improve durability and long-term crack control properties and can increase impact resistance of concrete by equally distributing structural fibers throughout the entire concrete matrix.
Adfil®Durus EasyFinish & Adfil®Strux macro-fibers can replace part of the steel structure reinforcement and allow to reduce time and labor versus manually installing steel mesh, thus helps to reduce overall construction time and labor cost.
Adfil® micro-synthetic fibers helps control cracking risk at concrete early fresh state (Adfil®Sinta) and can improve fire resistance at long term (Adfil®Ignis).
Examples of applications where synthetic macro and micro-fibers can be used are precast panels, tunnel segments, L type walls and many landscaping precast elements.

- Adfil®Durus EasyFinish (macro-fibers)
- Adfil®Strux (macro-fibers)
- Adfil®Sinta (micro-fibers)
- Adfil®Ignis (micro-fibers)
