For every design challenge there is a targeted chemical solution. Superplasticizers, accelerators, retarders and special additives: superior performance, tailored to your concrete pour.
Concrete additives: why they make the difference
There is a truth that few say: today the best performing concrete is not the one with the most cement, but the one with the smartest mix design. We at i-GlooAdvance bring in that intelligence. We are the chemical answer to a question that every builder asks himself: how can I stay competitive, sustainable and confident of delivering flawless work? Our answer is not just a product: it is a change of perspective. We transform the cost of the additive into the most precious gain, the certainty of the result.
Why choose i-GlooAdvance for your high performance concrete
Pour control and predictability
That feeling when the flow is slow, a crack appears or the timing doesn’t add up? We replace it with predictability. Our water-based additives are not “magic”: they are methodically applied chemistry. They give you control over time, form and end result.
Concrete numbers, measurable advantages
Rationality demands proof. Here are the facts that matter:
- reduction of cement up to 15% without losing strength
- increase in workability up to 40% with less water
- useful life of the structure extended by decades
Translated: lower costs, less CO₂, more homogeneous castings and works that last. Measurable facts, with economic and environmental benefits.
Reputation, duration, perceived value
You’re not just pouring concrete: you’re building reputation, trust and new contracts. Smoother, stronger, more durable concrete is a benefit your customers see and reward.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)
Which additives to choose for high-performance concrete?
It depends on the objective of the casting: superplasticizers to increase workability, accelerators or retardants for setting times and specific additives for waterproofing or extreme resistance.
Do additives really reduce cement?
Yes, with high-performance additives it is possible to reduce the cement content while maintaining resistance, with economic advantages and lower CO₂ emissions.
Do additives change the setting times of cement?
Yes. There are accelerators to reduce times and retarders to increase the processing window, especially useful in hot climates or complex construction sites.
Do additives also improve durability and waterproofness?
Yes, some formulations reduce porosity and protect from water, frost and aggressive agents, increasing the useful life of the structure.
