Cement

 We offer Turkish cement directly from the manufacturer to you.

 Turkey today is on the fourth place in the world regarding the volume of cement export and is the main manufacturer of cement in Europe. Turkey exporters sell cement to France, Israel, Belgium, Spain, Portugal and other development countries.

 Popularity of Turkish cement can be explained by the factor "price-quality". On the one hand, the price of Turkish cement is competitive on a foreign market thanks to rapid development of industry and a convenient strategic location of the country, and on the other hand, quality of it corresponds to the European standards.

All cement delivered by “FILD” company , corresponds to European standards EN 197-1 and has the Russian quality certificates .

Furthermore, experts,  invited by “FILD” company , have conducted certified tests of the cement samples directly at the Turkey manufacturers plants.

That is why, we can guarantee, that cement which we offer, answers to all Russian and EU quality standards.

 

Turkish Portland Cement CEM I / 42,5R corresponds to the Russian standard of mark "ÏÖ 500-Ä0" (GOST 31108-2003 «Cement for buildings». (This GOST operates in parallel with the old standard of GOST 10178-85 and will gradually replace this standard).

One of advantages of this standard of GOST 31108-2003 is the connection with the European standard EN 197-1, which establishes union standards for the all European Union countries (EU) classification, technical requirements and methods of an establishment of conformity of cement's quality regarding the standard requirements.
 

It should be noted, that he standard of GOST 31108-2003 does not cancel GOST 10178-85 operating now, which can be applied in all cases if it technically and economically expediently. At the same time it is a good perspective for working out according the new standard documentation in the building, based on characteristics of the cement, that is harmonised with requirements EN 197-1.

That is why, manufacture of cement regarding the new GOST 31108-2003 probably can give an adequate estimation of quality of the competitors in this business, which are producing it in the CIS and EU countries .
 

The basic differences of GOST 31108-2003 from operating GOST 10178-85 are :

  • instead of the marks it takes the classes of the compression, similar established EN 197-1 are entered;
  • for the all cement's classes regarding the durability, (except requirements to durability at the age of 28 days), specifications on durability at the age of two days, except for classes 22,5Í and 32,5Í, and for cements of classes 22,5Í and 32,5Í - at the age of 7 days are in addition established;
  • all classes regarding the durability, (except a class 22,5,) can be divided regarding the speed of hardening on: normal hardening and quick hardening class of cement. It can allow to minimise the cement expense in building at the expense of its optimum selection for speed of hardening.

 

In accordance with GOST 31108-2003 the names of cement classes will change. The full cement symbol will consist from:

  • cement names (ÑEM I -Portland cement , CEM II - Portland cement with mineral additives);
  •  Portland cement with the mineral additives is subdivide into two groups: A and B. For a subtype "A" the quantity of mineral additives is limited from 6 % to 20 %, for the subtype "B" it can variate from 21 % to 35 %;
  • the short name of the cement, including a type and a subtype of cement and a kind of the additive
  • a durability class (22,5; 32,5; 42,5 and 52,5, that means the minimum durability on compression on 28 days, ÌÏà);
  • subclass designations
  • symbol of the standard
     

Examples of cement's  symbols:

1. Portland Cement, class 42,5, normal hardening :
Portland Cement CEM I 42,5Í GOST 31108-2003;

2. Portland Cement with slag from 6 % to 20 %, a class of durability 32,5,
quick hardening :
Portland Cement with slag CEM II/À-SH 32,5Á GOST 31108-2003;

3. Portland Cement with slag from 21 % to 35 %, a class of durability 32,5,
normal hardening :
Portland Cement with slag CEM II/Â-SH 32,5Í GOST 31108-2003;

4. Composite Portland Cement with the total maintenance of the domain granulated slag from 6 % to 20 %, with the class of durabilities 32,5, normal hardening :
Composite Portland Cement with slag CEM II/À-Ê (SH-P) 32,5Í GOST 31108-2003.


In the cement manufacturing process, in accordance with GOST 31108-2003 it is possible to add different auxiliary components in the amount of 5 % in all types of cements (including in CEM I). In a role of such components of cement can be any mineral or inert additives regulated by GOST 31108-2003. Only one thing, these auxiliary components should not raise essentially water requirement of cement, and also reduce durability of concrete or protection of armature against corrosion. 

Cement of this mark is used for  manufacture of responsible ferro-concrete designs in industrial building. Cement of the mark Ì500d-0  also is effective at carrying out of emergency repair and regenerative works as  it originally  has high durability.

 

“FILD” company works with the biggest manufacturers of cement in Turkey:

Goltas, Nuh, Bolu, Adana cemento, Konya Cimento, Ozgur Cimento, Oyak Cement Group, Çimko Cement, Bursa and others.

These factories are included into the Cement’s manufacturers Association of Turkey, that is the addition guaranty factor of their production high quality.
