RAMCO SUPERGRADE CEMENT NEAR VARTHUR - Ramco Supergrade is a high-quality blended cement, specifically a Portland Pozzolana Cement (PPC). It is produced by inter-grinding Portland cement clinker with fine pozzolanic materials (like fly ash) and adding gypsum, following the Indian standard IS 1489 (Part 1):1991. Key Features & Benefits High Durability: The pozzolanic reaction with fly ash creates additional cementitious compounds, making concrete denser and longer-lasting. Reduced Heat of Hydration: Generates less heat during setting compared to ordinary Portland cement, which limits thermal cracking — especially important in large pours and massive foundations. Improved Strength: Provides good long-term compressive strength. Workability: Fine particles and pozzolanic action enhance the workability of concrete and mortar. Resistance to Chemical Attack: Denser concrete is more resistant to sulphates and moisture ingress, which protects reinforcement and structure. Reduced Microcracking & Creep: Better performance under load over time with lower cracking tendencies. 🏗️ Typical Uses Ramco Supergrade is a general-purpose, multi-application cement suitable for: RCC (Reinforced Cement Concrete) structures — beams, slabs, columns, foundations. Brickwork and plastering. Residential, commercial, industrial & infrastructure projects. Marine and coastal areas prone to chloride/sulphate attack. Mass concrete work (e.g., dams, bridges). 🧠 How It Works (Technical) The pozzolanic reaction in PPC consumes calcium hydroxide released by cement hydration and produces extra calcium silicate hydrate (C-S-H) gel — this densifies the microstructure, leading to higher durability and reduced permeability than ordinary Portland cement. 📦 Bag Size & Grades Typically available in 50 kg bags (standard retail size). While PPC grades may not match the very high early strength of some Grade 53 OPC, they often offer better long-term performance and crack resistance for most construction needs.
