Concrete Admixtures

Advanced Chemical Solutions to Enhance Concrete Performance

At Saudi Specialty Chemicals Co. Ltd. (SSCI), we offer a specialized range of Concrete Admixtures engineered to meet the evolving demands of modern construction. Whether you’re working on residential buildings, infrastructure projects, precast units, or high-performance concrete structures, our admixtures deliver measurable improvements in workability, durability, setting time, and strength.

Manufactured in our advanced facilities in Jeddah, Riyadh, and Jubail, SSCI concrete admixtures are formulated to meet Saudi, GCC, and international construction standards β€” helping builders, engineers, and contractors achieve superior results across diverse environments.

Applications of SSCI Concrete Admixtures

🧱 Ready-Mix Concrete Plants

Improve mix consistency, reduce water content, and extend setting time with SSCI’s water reducers and retarders, ensuring better control at batching plants.

πŸ— Infrastructure Projects

From highways and bridges to tunnels and dams, our admixtures enhance pumpability and durability, even under harsh temperature or sulfate conditions.

🏒 High-Rise & Commercial Buildings

Achieve sleek finishes and load-bearing strength with admixtures that improve workability and reduce shrinkage in vertical pours and dense reinforcement zones.

🧱 Precast Concrete Units

Reduce cycle times and demolding periods with fast-acting admixtures that offer early strength gain and dimensional stability.

🌑 Hot Weather Concreting

Control heat of hydration and mitigate premature setting in high-temperature environments using our specially formulated retarding admixtures.

❄ Cold Weather Concreting

Accelerating admixtures allow for faster strength development in low-temperature conditions, enabling quicker formwork removal and curing.

Our Admixture Portfolio Includes:

  • Water-Reducing Admixtures (Plasticizers & Superplasticizers)
    Lower water-cement ratio for improved strength and flowability.

  • Retarding Admixtures
    Extend setting times for large pours and high-temperature applications.

  • Accelerating Admixtures
    Promote early strength in cold weather or precast production.

  • Air-Entraining Admixtures
    Enhance freeze-thaw resistance and improve concrete durability.

  • Shrinkage-Reducing Admixtures
    Minimize drying shrinkage and cracking in concrete.

  • Hydration Control Admixtures
    Enable extended workability windows and reduce job-site waste.
