Maha Cement CC
Maha Composite cement is manufactured from specially prepared clinker of high C3S (Tricalcium Silicates) content and carefully selected high glass content GGBS. Owing to the advanced technology of “separate grinding and blending”, Maha Composite Cement has high fineness and optimum slag and clinker content, which ensure excellent early strength and durability properties.

5 advantages of Maha Composite Cement
Owing to its high fineness, Maha Composite Cement matures at all stages: 3, 7 and 28 days and beyond. The presence of superior superfine GGBS with high glass content contributes to its growing strength and durability.
With first-of-its-kind “Separate Grinding and Blending” technology that is far ahead of the traditional combined grinding in the Ball Mill and a 2.5 MTPA state-of-the-art world-class manufacturing capacity grinding unit at Vizag, Maha SOLID is truly the expert’s choice. The best of breed 220 TPH high capacity Vertical Roller Mill from Loesche GmbH, Germany, ensures the finest particle size distribution – an essential characteristic of good slag cement. Furthermore, utmost care is taken at every step, like drying the slag by Hot Air Generator, blending by Stacker and Re-claimers, homogenization by Compressed Air Circulation in Silos, etc. This ensures that every bag of Maha Composite Cement delivered is of the highest standards.
Maha Composite Cement provides uniform strength owing to the superior quality control measures which are in place. Its unique, uniform strength disposition helps facilitate superior quality structural designing and execution.
The extra fineness of Maha Composite Cement makes possible a highly homogenous and workable concrete and mortar composition. The concrete in Maha Composite Cement does not segregate and ensures that it is free from common defects like honeycombing etc. It is as fine as powder and renders high surface smoothness.
One of the most fundamental requisites of cement is durability. The concrete in coastal regions is subjected to various vagaries of harsh environment like heavy rain, humidity, heat and harmful chemicals like sulphates, chlorides, etc., which affect the durability of the building. Balanced chemical composition and reduced permeability ensure greater resistance from chlorides and sulphates, thus making Maha Composite Cement, the most preferred cement in the region for coastal structures and foundations.
