concrete repairs
An ISO 9001:2015 Company
Cera Microconcrete is a ready to use product developed for meeting the specific
requirement of repair and rehabilitation of concrete structures. The product is manufactured
from graded aggregates, special cements and various chemicals to derive unique functional
characteristics.
ADVANTAGES:
 Excellent adhesion with parent concrete, positive grip with reinforcement

 High early and final strength
 Efficient restoration material
 Compensation for shrinkage and settlement in the plastic state
 High fluidity enables placing without Vibration
 Low permeability. Ensures water tightness
 Easy to use
 Pre-packed system - overcomes the batched weight variations
FUNCTION:
Cera Microconcrete is a non-shrink Cera Microconcrete can be used for

cementitious micro concrete with 5 to 12mm repairing larger sections by mixing with 5-
