Cement: More Than One Type, More Than One Impact

🔹 Cement is not just one material… it’s multiple types with different impacts!

In construction, cement may look like a basic material, but the right choice determines:

🛡️ Waterproofing quality

💪 Concrete durability

⏳ Structure’s service life

Key types:

OPC: Conventional applications

SRC: Sulfate resistance & aggressive soils

White Cement: Architectural finishes

Pozzolanic: Sustainable or high-temperature projects

💡 Tip for engineers & contractors: Never rely on cost alone — always match cement type with specifications and site conditions.
