    FINISH SLABS SOONER
    TURN precast forms more quickly. Finish slabs sooner. With OPTIPOZZ
    TM
    , the new high-reactivity, flash-calcined metakaolin that outperforms traditional pozzolans such as silica fume and fly ash.
    CURES FAST
    OPTIPOZZ
    TM
    cures fast. This gives cement-based products significant compressive and flexural strength early in the curing process. Precast producers can now turn forms more quickly.
    STRONGER, HARDER, FASTER

    TM
    mix design produces less bleedwater, so slabs can be finished sooner. In short, OPTIPOZZ

    TM
    metakaolin is available to react with the free lime produced as a result of the Portland cement.
    By utilizing OPTIPOZZ
    TM
    metakaolin in a cementitious mix design, the working characteristics of wet concrete and finished properties of cured concrete are significantly improved.
    ADDITIONAL INFO:
    By replacing 10% - 20% of the weight of cement in the mix design,OPTIPOZZ
    TM
    will significantly reduce efflorescence.
