The three day event will bring together the buyers and sellers within the concrete industry to experience and interact with the full range of concrete products and services, develop business relationships, and participate in thought provoking seminar programmes. Since concrete plays a vital role in each construction project a dedicated event for this region is long overdue hence why Concrete Show India will be the only unique platform serving the needs of the entire concrete industry. During the show attendees will have the chance to find out more about the current state of the Indian construction sector and the opportunities available for the industry through the launch of Building Magazine’s White Paper.The launch of Concrete Show India is based on the success of Concrete Show South America, the leading exhibition for the concrete and civil construction industry in Latin America with over 500 exhibitors and over 25,000 visitors. Now in its 6th year, over $400 million dollars of business was generated in new business by the exhibition at its 5th edition. Concrete Show India will expand on this success and continue to provide a dedicated platform for concrete professionals around the globe. Several leading names have confirmed participation including Sany, Lafarge, Hess Group Adeka India and Atlas Copco India.Today India is the second fastest growing economy in the world with investment in construction accounting for nearly 11 percent of India’s Gross Domestic Product. High economic growth, a shortage of residential and office space, a thriving retail sector and strong industrial output have all played a vital role in this booming sector. The launch of Concrete Show India comes at a time when the building industry gathers momentum. Sanjeev Khaira, Managing Director of Concrete Show India, said that there was no better time to invest in India than at present. "India is emerging as one of the most attractive business destinations globally and is an opportunity not to be missed. Concrete Show India will ensure that suppliers, buyers, contractors, developers and other key players connect over the three days in a dynamic business environment. With Construction being the biggest beneficiary of the surge in infrastructure investment over the next five years the market is clearly surging forward and becoming increasingly competitive.

ACC launches ‘Bagcrete’, a pre-blended concrete solution

The company’s ongoing innovation process is consistent with ACC Bagcrete

ACC, the cement and building material company of Adani Cement and part of the Adani Group, has been a pioneer in building innovative concrete solutions. The company’s ongoing innovation process is consistent with ACC Bagcrete, a proportional balance of premium components produced to generate high-quality concrete mix.

The company has added a new product dimension to the building industry with ACC Bagcrete, a hassle-free, smart, and user-friendly concrete solution for all types of construction demands. A stronger, more durable final product is produced as a result of the pre-blended components being meticulously measured to ensure uniform quality.

The product was created to offer the best compressive strength (10 MPa to 80 MPa), exceptional workability retention, and unmatched ease of placement, a trifecta of attributes that set it apart from competing products. In contrast to traditional concrete, which necessitates the mixing of various components on-site, it is a pre-blended mixture of cement, sand, and aggregates. For building projects that call for a quick and effective application method, ACC Bagcrete is ideal.

There are two functional variants of the versatile building material ACC Bagcrete: dry-mix and wet-mix. The dry-mix is pre-blended concrete that may be used right away with just the addition of water. wet-mix is pre-mixed, immediately usable concrete that doesn’t require any additional mixing before use. This can be especially helpful in places with scarce water supplies or where conventional concrete mixing techniques are impractical. Both kinds of ACC Bagcrete are of exceptional quality and effectiveness. This unique concrete solution is ideal for remote job sites and maintenance projects since it can be easily transported in the form of bags, enhancing productivity.

Ajay Kapur, CEO, Cement Business, said “We are dedicated to pursuing product innovations and offering the finest products and services to our customers. We have always strived to create products of the highest calibre in order to meet the varied needs of our customers and assist them in constructing robust structures. ACC Bagcrete is a unique product that not only meets but also exceeds the demands of our customers.”

The prestigious university IIT Bombay has recently reaped significant benefits of using ACC Bagcrete for a special need in its R&D Lab of Civil Engineering Department. The M80 Grade ACC Bagcreate has also been used in various NHPC projects in spillway repair. ACC Bagcrete is a unique solution that guarantees minimal waste, accelerates construction, and improves longevity with constant quality. In conclusion, dry-mix concrete is a versatile and convenient option for construction projects of all types.
