6 key advantages

  • Works in cold weather

    From last load to concrete finishing takes just 6 hours with Sure-Set® Gold when the air temperature is 5ºC at the discharge point.

  • No costly overtime

    Sure-Set® lets you knock off earlier. Even concrete poured at noon can be finished by 3pm in certain circumstances. (Refer to chart for setting times under different weather conditions.)

  • More productive labour

    Using Sure-Set® lets you organise your trades with military precision. No more idle work gangs standing around waiting for a pour to set before they can get on with the job.

  • Faster formwork removal

    Where strength permits, Sure-Set® allows you to remove and start reusing formwork sooner than with regular concrete. This means less on-site material requirements.

  • Beat the storm

    With Sure-Set® you can arrange a morning pour even when it looks like a storm later in the day. Quicker setting reduces the chance of fresh concrete being damaged by torrential rain or overnight vandals.
