Products and Services

 

Cement Based Applications

From pure raw material, Omya offers tailor made mineral solutions that address the innovative and sustainable needs of the construction industry.  Today, Omya’s Ground Calcium Carbonate (GCC) in the form of various Betocarb® and Betoflow® grades is bringing multiple benefits to flooring, technical mortars & concrete, including 3D printing applications.

Focusing on the required characteristics of the final cement-based product, Omya adds value through its range of functional Mineral Plasticizers® which provide strong benefits like improved packing, stability, water-cement ratio and therefore an optimization of the admixture efficiency. This way Omya covers both, economic and ecological optimization of the cement-based compositions.
