Navrattan Crystal Quickset Grout
Navrattan Crystal Quickset Grout is non-curing, quick-setting cement in accordance with ASTM C 1600 and an alternate binder based on a new generation microcrystalline technology.
Navrattan Crystal Quickset Grout, when mixed with water, reacts chemically to produce a cementitious paste and hardens in a few hours with improved properties. It is more suitable for applications where speed, strength, and durability are of prime importance. It provides users with a value-added alternative solution for today’s most challenging construction and repair work.
