Axim, Admixtures for concrete


What is an admixture?
 
An admixture is a chemical product in liquid or powder form, added to concrete, mortar or cement-based grout to change the characteristics of the mix when cold and/or hardened.




 
The P.A.S offers a solution against vibrations 

Axim and Socli teams, joined in the Speciality Activities Division (P.A.S), have found a solution for the road maintenance of Cruseilles (Haute-Savoie/France) submitted to high vibrations. They have developed a specific mixing of CIMLATEX and PAVIMER 350  used to improve the adhesion of slabs, blocks and paving blocks.

Axim supplier of the "Grand Stade" of Lille city

Eiffage Construction confided its concrete to Italcementi Group for the realization of this huge construction began in March 2010 and which will last 2 years.
Its conception gave a particular attention to sustainable development (management of energy, water resource and waste), due to its audacious architecture (a retractable lawn and a removable roof). This construction is a full success for Italcementi Group, who supplies cements, aggregates, additives and ready-mixed concrete.
Axim delivers 2 additives on this construction site :
- Cimplast Néo 20, new generation plasticizer for ready-mixed concrete,
- Cimfluid Adagio 2019, superplasticizer which allows realization, among others, of long rheology standing concretes.
Unibéton Nord-Ouest will have delivered more than 80.000m3 of concrete, supplied by the production sites of Ronchin and Armentières.
3 different cements from CCB will be used : CEM I 55,25N of Gaurain, CEM I A 42,5, and CEM I 52,5 PMES ; aggregates are supplied by GSM.


The partnership Axim-Socli


Since Decembre 2008, Axim and Socli (lime-mortars) have been combined under the umbrella of the same managing direction to create Group's Speciality Activities. This dynamic, partnered with the highly complementary nature of the Axim and Socli teams, facilitates the development of innovation for Italcementi Group and all of their customers.
