Glenium 129 

An innovative versatile admixture based on polycarboxylic ether (PCE) polymers and lignosulphonate. GLENIUM^® 129 is specially engineered for the ready-mix concrete market to replace a lignosulphonate based water reducer at the S2 / S3 consistence levels but still permitting production of S4 / S5 concretes without significant increases in set retardation. Its configuration allows it to perform as a multi functional admixture; it is possible to obtain a high quality concrete mix with good strength development and extended workability without delayed setting characteristics.
