We are the leading Distributors & supplier of Sika India in India. SikaPaver® HC-1 is a very efficient high performance compaction aid for semi-dry / no-slump concrete. This innovative admixture technology has been specifically developed for use in low cement content semi-dry / no-slump mixes.

SikaPaver® HC-1 is used for producing optimised coloured and grey semi-dry / no-slump concrete with a very low moisture content. Semi-dry / no-slump concrete production is generally used in the manufacture of machine-made concrete products associated with instant de-moulding such as:

• Block Paving (grey / coloured)
• Paving flags
• Kerbstones
• Edgings and other items for garden and landscape design
• Building blocks and bricks
• Concrete pipe
• Manholes and drainage goods
• Semi-dry pressed & hollow core slabs

SikaPaver® HC-1 offers substantial benefits to the producer of semi-dry / no-slump concrete products:

• Efficient dispersion and distribution of cement, additives and pigments
• Air entrainment
• Optimised compaction with shorter pressing time and increased throughput [shorter production cycle]
• Minimized friction between the mould and the concrete [Reductions in equipment wear and tear
• Reduced adhesion / stickiness between top layer concrete and pressing head / tamper (equipment / tools)
• Increased “green” strength on immediate de-moulding [keeps the shape of freshly de-moulded semi-dry concrete products because it prevents slumping after de-moulding]
• More economic concrete mix designs
• Create superior products

Advantages

SikaPaver® HC-1 allows for the following advantages in the finished concrete products:

• Closer textured, smoother and more uniform surfaces (improved surface finish)
• Consistent product quality due to a homogenous concrete mix
• Increased density
• Less variation in densities and strengths across the area of the mould (constant spread of density & strength over the pallet)
• Minimized damage due to early handling
• Enhanced early and ultimate compressive and tensile strengths
• Increased freeze-thaw resistance
• Improved durability and life expectancy
