CEMENT TESTING

Cement is produced by the calcination process of Lime Stone in the kiln and thereafter blended with additives. Cement is used as a principal material in any kind of construction projects like Construction of industrial infrastructure, Development of transportation system or maybe of a Housing complex, City development, etc.

[Cement, the principal component in most Construction Projects such as Industrial & Civil Infrastructure, Transportation Systems, and Housing Complexes is manufactured by calcining (heating) Lime Stone in a Kiln (furnace) and thereafter blending it with additives in specific proportions.]

Types of cement are – Ordinary Portland Cement | Portland Pozzolana Cement | White Portland Cement | Sulphate Resistant Cement | Portland Slag Cement | High Alumina Cement, etc. It is essential to assure that all the physical and chemical qualities should meet the regulatory standards.

[Different types of cement – Ordinary Portland Cement, Portland Pozzolana Cement, White Portland Cement, Sulphate Resistant Cement, Portland Slag Cement, and High Alumina Cement, etc. have distinct physical and chemical characteristics and are aimed at disparate end-use. As such, it is critical that their requisite characteristics are assured through Testing & Analysis as conforming to appropriate regulatory standards.]

EFRAC provides world-class services to check the quality of Cement for producers and end-users. We have [EFRAC has] a full-fledged division for testing cement equipped with highly sophisticated, modern, and automated instruments and a team [comprised] of highly skilled and professional scientists. EFRAC also offers analytical services for the testing of raw materials like Limestone, Fly Ash, etc. used in cement production.
