Concrete Admixtures | Construction | Sika South Africa | Sika
Sika has been producing high quality, innovative technologies for concrete, beginning with the first product named Sika-1, which is still in the Sika product portfolio today. 20,000 metric tons of Sika concrete admixtures were used in the record-breaking Gotthard base tunnel project. Thanks to Sika’s range of water-reducers for concrete, more than
SikaMix PL-100 | Plasticizers & Set Control
Advantages. SikaMix PL-100 is an integral concrete densifying admixture that acts as a cement dispersant and reduces the use of water. Some of its benefits are: Machine productivity will be increased by more rapid filling of form and mold boxes. The internal lubricating properties of SikaMix PL-100 reduce the wear on machinery and extend

Aided by the increasing demand for durable and high-performance concrete in the construction industry, the market is projected to further grow at a CAGR of 4.7% between 2025 and 2028 to reach a value of USD 30.60 billion by 2028.
- How does admixture affect a concrete mix?
- The admixture thus induces the following major effects in a concrete mix: Without affecting the consistency, permits a reduction in the water content; or Without affecting the water content, increases the slump/flow; or Produces both of the above effects simultaneously. The Omega range is a superplasticizer and high-range water reducers.
- What are cement additives & grinding aids?
- Cement additives and grinding aids are chemicals that are used to improve cement grindability and/or performance. Adding admixtures and adhesives to cement change can viscosity, permeability, set time, water requirements, and more. Readymix concrete suitable for specific placement and performance needs.
- What is megaadd ve admixture?
- It helps in producing flowing concrete with prolonged slump retention. MegaAdd VE is a chloride free admixture consisting of a mixture of highly water soluble co-polymers, molecules of which are absorbed onto the surface of the cement granules, thereby changing he viscosity and influencing the rheological properties of the mix.
