Natural Cement's fast setting mortar pre-mix ensured works are

completed on time

With the help of Natural Cement Distribution Ltd's Natcem 35, Stonbury Ltd recently carried out
work to 22 Rapid Gravity Filter Tanks and Outfall Channels at Ponsticill WTW for Welsh Water.

The refurbishment works included concrete repair and specialised coating works to the Rapid
Gravity Tanks and outfall channels, which included high pressure water jetting to the walls, floors
and outfall channels to remove loose debris and aggregates in preparation for concrete repairs
and coating to tanks.

After the initial preparation works the next stage was to repair the floors using a DWI approved
mortar. The repairs were necessary to level out the area prior to the elastomeric waterproof
coating. Natural Cement based product NATCEM 35 which was used for the concrete repairs is a
fast setting, fast curing mortar with rapid strength gain allowing over coating early. This was im-
perative for this project as it is for many other projects carried out by Stonbury and other con-
tractors as down time is critical.

The unique properties of the Natcem 35 mean that it does not require 28 days to cure which en-
sured that Stonbury were able to hand back the completed works on time. Other benefits to
Natural Cement Distributions products are that they can be used in both the clean or dirty water
environments as they have excellent resistance to pure and sulphated water and many chemi-
cals.

Thanks to our products at Natural Cement Distribution Ltd this is just one job of many that can be
completed with rapid and precise execution.
