Infrastructure Projects
Extensively used in heavy developments like metros, roads, and bridges, driving over 50% of overall GGBS demand.
GGBS
Sustainable Strength for Long-Lasting Concrete
GGBS
GGBS is a sustainable mineral powder made from processed blast-furnace slag that replaces 25% to 70% of OPC in concrete. It reduces heat of hydration to prevent cracking and boosts long-term strength and chemical resistance.
Key Features
01
Residential & High-Rise Buildings
Applied in large-scale residential townships and high-rise structures.
Foundation Works
Utilized in foundation concreting due to its low heat of hydration.
OPC & Fly Ash Replacement
Replaces traditional cement in concrete manufacturing within a range of 25.00% to 70.00%.
High-Rise Foundations (Specific Replacement)
Replaces 60.00% to 65.00% of OPC/fly ash in high-rise building foundation concrete.
Above-Ground Concrete (Specific Replacement)
Replaces 40.00% to 50.00% of cement in above-ground concrete surfaces.
Blended Cement Production
Formulated into blended cements like Portland Slag Cement (PSC) and Portland Composite Cement (PCC).
Commercial RMC & Captive Consumption
Combined with project-based and captive consumption to account for roughly 95.00% of GGBS applications in Fiscal 2024.
Emerging & Advanced Uses
Applied in soil stabilization, autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC), grouts, dry mix products, microfine GGBS, and geopolymers.
Benefits
Low Heat of Hydration
High Cement Replacement Potential
Versatile Industry Application
Enhanced Compatibility in Blended Cements
Wide Emerging Utility
Applications We Serve
Ground Granulated Blast-furnace Slag (GGBS) is an eco-friendly byproduct of steel production that is used as a partial replacement for Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC) in concrete to improve long-term strength, durability, and sustainability.
