CHRYSO®Quad

Circular economy & sustainable construction

CHRYSO®Quad Solution

Promoting the circular economy:  an evolution in aggregate supplies

The use of a wide range of sands, with the integration of complex sands, makes it possible to optimize local resources, reduce supply costs and reduce the carbon footprint. 

With the CHRYSO®Quad solution, Chryso extends the field of use of complex aggregates in concrete formulations.  It thus becomes possible to use aggregates sourced locally and/or from deconstruction sites, while maintaining the technical performance of the concrete.

Enter the virtuous circle of the circular economy

The implementation of a circular economy approach with the use of local aggregates or from deconstruction sites is a major challenge for accelerating sustainable construction.

The CHRYSO®Quad range and dedicated services make it possible to optimize production costs  and improve the quality and performance of concrete  using complex aggregates.

Analysis of your sand

Thanks to CHRYSO®Clear Test, a new tool, patented and developed by Chryso, we are able to quickly reveal the presence of swelling clays in sand.

The test can be carried out directly in the field or in the laboratory. It offers immediate and targeted results

CHRYSO®Quad App

CHRYSO has developed CHRYSO®Quad Lab App, a new application allowing you to analyze new sources of supply close to your concrete manufacturing site, and to identify the most suitable admixture solution.

Products

CHRYSO®Quad 230S

CHRYSO®Quad 230S is a new generation superplasticizer with very high-water reduction capability based on latest molecular synthesis technology from CHRYSO ® Synthesis Molecules. CHRYSO®Quad 230S has been developed for fine aggregates that have high clay/silt content, and to maintain fresh concrete that helps to keep enough slump retention, which is not possible with a normal admixture. It can be used also with normal sands and aggregates.   CHRYSO®Optima 230S has been developed to maintain fresh concrete workability without compromising the setting time. CHRYSO®Quad 230S enables the production of flowable/self-leveling concrete.    

CHRYSO®Quad 850S

CHRYSO®Quad 850S is a new generation superplasticizer with very high-water reduction capability based on latest molecular synthesis technology from CHRYSO ® Synthesis Molecules.   CHRYSO®Quad 850S has been developed for fine aggregates that have high clay/silt content, and to maintain fresh concrete that helps to keep enough slump retention, which is not possible with a normal admixture. It can be used also with normal sands and aggregates.   Thanks to its specifically designed molecular structure, CHRYSO®Quad 850S enables the concrete manufacturer to produce cohesive, low viscous concrete and long workability retention. CHRYSO®Quad 850S enables the production of flowable/self-leveling concrete.
