Recycled Glass Blends
ConcGRIT™ ReGlass Blends utilize recycled glass powder and aggregates to partially replace natural sand and cementitious material in concrete, delivering eco-friendly, durable, and visually appealing mixes. This solution supports waste glass recycling and reduces reliance on virgin resources.
Key Advantages
-
Eco-Friendly: Diverts glass waste from landfills into valuable concrete products.
-
High Durability: Glass powder acts as a pozzolan, improving strength and reducing permeability.
-
Aesthetic Finish: Glass aggregates offer decorative appeal for architectural concrete.
-
Lower Carbon Footprint: Reduces cement usage and supports circular economy.
-
Improved Workability: Fine glass particles enhance flow properties.
Applications
-
Architectural Concrete: Polished surfaces, decorative flooring.
-
Precast Panels: Lightweight panels with aesthetic finish.
-
Paving & Landscaping: Pavers, tiles, and decorative blocks.
-
Structural Concrete: Engineered blends for strength and durability.
-
Geopolymer Concrete: Glass powder combined with alkali activators for green concrete.
Mix Design Options
-
ReGlass-10: 10% glass powder for general use.
-
ReGlass-30: 30% replacement for sustainability-focused projects.
-
Glass Aggregate Blends: For decorative and architectural concrete.
-
Hybrid Mixes: Glass + SCMs for enhanced durability and sustainability.
Installation & Usage
-
Material Preparation: Glass is finely ground and cleaned for alkali-silica reaction (ASR) control.
-
Admixtures: PCE-based superplasticizers maintain workability.
-
Curing: Standard curing; glass blends generally reduce heat of hydration.
-
Surface Finish: Glass aggregates can be exposed or polished for aesthetics.
