Specialist admixtures for consistent performance, even in complex pours

The CHRYSO®Optima 200 and 300 ranges are high-performance superplasticisers designed to enhance workability and reduce water content without delaying setting times. These admixtures allow contractors and manufacturers to achieve consistent, high-quality results, even in large-volume or complex pours.

By combining fluidity maintenance with water reduction, the ranges are particularly suited for fluid to self-compacting concrete, high-performance concrete (HPC), and very high-performance concrete (VHPC). They are also ideal for applications requiring rapid strength development, making them flexible solutions for demanding construction projects.

Furthermore, CHRYSO®Optima 200 and 300 optimise mix designs, producing cohesive, robust concrete while improving efficiency, reducing water usage, and supporting both early-age and 28-day strength development.

Chryso®Optima 340

CHRYSO®Optima 340 is a high-range water reducer and superplasticiser designed to optimise cement content while achieving a defined slump class. It enables the production of workable and flowing concretes without increasing mix water content, supporting performance-driven concrete mix design. CHRYSO®Optima 340 offers a wide dosage range, providing excellent flexibility across a broad range of concrete types, including low water/cement ratio mixes. It allows increases in slump class without the need for additional cement and supports extended retention of concrete consistency. The product is particularly well suited to ready-mix concrete and applications involving long transport times, where workability retention is critical.

Chryso®Optima 206

CHRYSO® Optima 206 is a new generation superplasticiser, based on modified polycarboxylate, particularly recommended for ready-mix concrete and civil engineering construction. It is particularly adapted to homogeneous flowing concrete applications. CHRYSO® Optima 206 intends to create a high water reduction and/or an increased period of workability retention. It allows to manufacture concrete with a long workability retention without prejudicial set retarding effect. Thus, CHRYSO® Optima 206 may be used in a large concrete pours.
