GranCem®
GranCem® GranCem® cement mixed with portland cement is strong, durable and great-looking. And GranCem cement is made from recyclable materials, so it’s earth-friendly.

For projects that count, use GranCem cement.

The performance to achieve

Using GranCem cement with portland cement increases compressive strengths and improves durability. That means, whatever you build will last longer.

In project after project, when builders require strong concrete, they look at the facts and make the smart decision — they choose GranCem cement.

The beauty to create

In addition to added strength, GranCem cement can add beauty to any project. Since GranCem cement is nearly white after it cures, you get a brighter, better-looking concrete than you ever could with typical portland cement. So even when colored concrete is called for, projects made with GranCem cement will be more attractive.

Any project, from an architectural showpiece like the Key Tower to a local driveway, will look great when you use GranCem cement.

The durability to last

Another advantage of GranCem cement is its durability. GranCem cement used with portland cement naturally produces more calcium silicate hydrate binder than portland cement alone. This gives concrete made with GranCem cement its strength and durability. It simply performs better than using just portland cement. GranCem cement is also more resistant to sulfate attack and alkali-silica reaction.

For projects such as roadways that require strong and durable concrete, the answer is GranCem cement.

The promise to care

The benefits of GranCem cement don't end with a stronger, better-looking, more durable finished concrete or mortar product. Because its most abundant ingredient is listed as a recyclable material by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the amount of GranCem cement you use in your projects can be applied toward meeting minimum recyclable material content requirements for many federally funded projects.

So you'll be helping keep our planet clean, and green, while you improve your construction work with GranCem.

GranCem cement brings Timeless Quality to every project.
