- Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC)
- Portland Slag Cement (PSC)
- Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC)
- Portland Composite Cement (PCC)
Also there are other varieties of cement used for specific requirements, such as:
- White cement
- Sulfate-resistant cement
- Low heat cement
- High alumina cement
- Hydraulic cement
- Rapid hardening cement
- Expansive cement
- Air entraining cement
- Water-repellent cement
- Portland Slag Cement (PSC)
- Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC)
- Portland Composite Cement (PCC)
The above three types of cement give higher durability and long life to your structure apart from giving desired strength.
When it comes to choosing the right cement by strength, there is a wide range of options available in our portfolio for diverse construction needs and from other cement manufacturing companies in India who offer good quality cement.
Concrete being the most important part of your entire construction, one should select the best quality blended cement available in the market for all concreting works. Nowadays some high-quality blended cement types are available in the market, which are specially suitable for concrete application. One such product from JSW Cement is Concreel HD (CHD).
Any good quality blended cement or composite cement may be used for plastering work.
Cement grade is a numerical classification that correlates to compressive strength, which determines the strength that the cement can bear at particular ages. Choosing cement grades should be based on the specific requirements of the construction project.
However, besides a grade of cement, durability aspect of a cement is also of paramount importance for selecting a cement for long life of a structure.
