Bamburi Cement manufactures NGUVU 32,5R under strict quality assurance and quality control procedures to ensure optimum product performance and consistency.

There are many variables that affect concrete performance that are beyond the control of the cement manufacturer. Skilled persons should use cement with special attention given to batching, mixing, placing, compaction, finishing and curing.

The judicious selection of concrete constituent materials with special emphasis on aggregates coupled with proper concrete mix design process and testing of trial mixes will assist users in obtaining the best results.

Storage & Usage information

STORAGE

Store bagged cement by stacking on raised timber platforms or plastic sheeting to prevent rising dampness. Avoid contact with external walls. Use the cement in the order you have received it i.e first in first out.

MIXING

Accurately measure all materials with a suitable container (wheelbarrow or bucket). Mix thoroughly until a uniform colour is obtained. Add water whilst mixing but avoid adding too much water.

WATER

In general, the more water used for a given quantity of cement, the weaker the concrete or mortar will be. It is therefore important to use the minimum amount of water required to make the mix workable.

CURING

Concrete or plaster should be kept moist for at least 7 days to prevent cracking and to ensure that its strength increases. Spray gently with water or protect it with plastic sheets (or wet hessian) to prevent it from drying out.
