Structural Qualities

The Navrattan Green Crete has a wide range of Structural Qualities as compared to Ordinary Portland Cement. Few of the vital differences are listed below :

• The product is 100% fire-resistant.
• Navrattan Green Crete (NGC) has stronger compressive and tensile strength than OPC due to its intrinsic covalent bonding nature.
• Green Crete exhibits non-curing properties and is perfect for use in wet conditions.
• Zero Carbon emission – thus remarkably reduces our carbon footprint.
• Considerably helps in reducing landfills.
• Cost-efficient as Green Crete does not require energy-intensive kilns and does not involve the burning of Fossil fuels.
• The manufacturing process of Navrattan Green Crete is free of baking and burning as it does not use limestone.
• NGC has a strength that can be adjusted to compression requirements.
• NGC meets as well exceeds all the same tensing standards as OPC and excels in every category.
• It has a low coefficient of expansion which facilitates it to work in freezing or tropical regions of the world.
• Navrattan Crete is hydrophobic and therefore highly resistant or impervious to water, acids, corrosion, sulfates or more which makes it perfect to use for waterproof basements, pipe coatings, countertops, wastewater tanks, fish farms, docks, etc.
• NGC absolutely stops oxidation ensuring no more rusty bars in your structure as compared to that of OPC making your structures more sustainable and longer-lasting.
• Navrattan Green Crete gives the construction material super-insulating abilities that results in almost no heat transfer no matter what aggregate is used – including cellulose or rock. Portland blocks would probably explode with that much heat.
• It allows Wood Chips or Mulch to be used for aggregate, to create a wood-like material that won’t rot, burn, or be eaten by insects.
• The product will not dry or crack skin as lime-based OPC does.
• It can be foamed, painted, rolled or sprayed unlike Portland Cement.
• NGC will not fall apart and crack like Portland cement.
