Our Holcim Strong GU Type Cement is a high-quality product that exceeds the requirements established in the NTE INEN 2380 Norm, providing safety and confidence to the builder in all fields of engineering.
No chemical requirements are specified for cements for performance in NTE INEN 2380; however, the individual ground and mixed constituents must be analyzed during production.
Bagged cement should be stored in ventilated and moisture-free environments to prevent hydration and settling. It is recommended to stack it for up to 10 sacks and place them on pallets so that the air circulates through the lower part; for this reason, it is recommended not to put the bags against the walls.
When the bagged cement is stored correctly, it can be stored for up to 60 days. It is important to check the date of packaging that appears printed on each package to ensure that the cement that is received is of recent manufacture.
To store cement in bulk, you must have silos of at least 30 tons, considering that this is the average capacity transported by bulk trucks.
