High performance concrete
Why use high performance, ultimate strength concrete?
Ultimate strength concrete is quite simply one of the toughest concretes there is. Not only does it have early strength properties, it also has the ability to withstand the harshest of conditions.
A concrete like this allows access to projects earlier than a conventional concrete and it also reduces costs as it has a longer life span. Due to the many benefits, the Green Guide by BRE encourages the use of these types of concrete.
What's so special about Tarmac Toproc?
Toproc’s key ingredient is microsilica. These are tiny particles that react when the concrete is hydrated and produce fine, strong crystals which fill up the concrete's small spaces and pores, thickening its microstructure. This process heightens the concrete's density, strengthens it rapidly and makes it impermeable.
The key to Toproc’s exceptional performance is microsilica, a pozzolanic material proven to enhance crucial aspects of concrete function: cohesion, strength and durability. Toproc harnesses the power of the microsilica pozzolanic reaction. This increases the quantity of calcium silicate hydrates in the hardening concrete, giving it greater strength than conventional microsilica-free concrete.
