Construction activity across the Philippines continues to gain ground, from residential projects to major infrastructure projects. As construction requirements evolve, builders and engineers are looking for materials that offer reliable performance, consistent quality, and flexibility across different applications.
One material commonly used in modern construction is blended cement. Designed to deliver balanced performance in a wide range of building conditions, blended cement is widely used for residential, commercial and infrastructure projects.
What is blended cement?
Blended cement is produced by combining portland clinker with gypsum, pozzolan additives, and limestone. This formulation helps create a product that gives reliable structural performance with lower carbon footprint.
In the Philippines, blended cement products include formulations such as APO Type IT and Rizal Type IT, ternary blended cement from Concreat Holdings Philippines, which are designed for a variety of construction applications.
