Concrete deactivator - Naturcem

Naturcem® is a water-based positive concrete surface deactivator. Its main function is to slow down and delay the setting of concrete in a controlled manner.

Ready-to-use and fully biodegradable, it delays the hydration of cement on the surface exposed to concrete. This concrete deactivator contributes to reducing the ecological footprint, as it is solvent-free.

A product that is particularly suitable for decorative paving from the controlled deactivation of concrete curing. It is not necessary to protect any surrounding areas beforehand, except for painted facades and porous surfaces.

Depending on the colour, the degree of attack and the size of the aggregate, there are three types of concrete deactivators: Naturcem® Low, Naturcem® Medium and Naturcem® High.

Logo Naturcem® Low

Naturcem® Low concrete deactivator

As previously mentioned, our positive concrete surface deactivators are divided according to the colour of the liquid, the degree of attack of each of them and the size of its aggregate.

As far as Naturcem® Low is concerned, the main characteristics of this concrete setting retarder are:

  • The colour of the liquid is blue
  • It offers a degree of attack 2
  • The size of its aggregate is between 5 and 8
Logo Naturcem® Medium

Naturcem® Medium concrete deactivator

The special features of Naturcem® Medium concrete deactivator are:

  • The colour of the liquid is pink
  • It guarantees a degree of attack 4
  • Its aggregate has a size between 10 and 14

It should be noted that on-site tests under general conditions will be necessary to define the exact depth of exposure. A depth that is conditioned by the dosage, the type of cement used and the outside temperature, among other factors.

Logo Naturcem® High

Naturcem® High concrete deactivator

Last but not least is Naturcem® High. It is Topciment's concrete deactivator with the highest degree of attack and aggregate size.

A concrete deactivator which, like its predecessors, has to be applied at ambient and substrate temperatures between 5°C and 30°C without excessive wind. The peculiarities of this positive surface retardant are:

  • Yellow is the colour of the liquid
  • It provides a degree of attack 5
  • The aggregate size is between 14 and 18

It should be noted that on-site tests under general conditions will be necessary to define the exact depth of exposure. This depth is conditioned by the dosage, the type of cement used and the outside temperature, among other factors.
