Civil Construction Chemicals
Sceptre's Civil Construction Chemical range provides specialist admixtures, treatments, and protective coatings for Nigeria's construction industry. Our portfolio supports concrete production, structural waterproofing, surface hardening, bonding, repair, and long-term asset protection — helping contractors and developers achieve superior structural performance and durability.
Our construction chemical range spans concrete admixtures (plasticizers, superplasticizers, retarders, accelerators, air entrainers), waterproofing compounds, curing agents, bonding agents, epoxy grouts, crack injection resins, and protective coatings. All products are tested to BS EN and ASTM standards and come with full technical support.
Key Benefits & Features
Improved Concrete Workability
Our plasticizer and superplasticizer admixtures reduce water demand by 15–30% while maintaining workability — producing stronger, more durable concrete structures.
Structural Waterproofing
Crystalline waterproofing admixtures react with water to form insoluble crystals within the concrete matrix — providing permanent, self-healing waterproof protection.
Accelerated Curing
Accelerator admixtures reduce initial and final set times — enabling faster formwork striking, faster construction cycles, and better cold-weather concrete performance.
Surface Hardening and Dustproofing
Penetrating liquid hardeners react with concrete's calcium hydroxide to produce a densified, abrasion-resistant surface — ideal for industrial floors and warehouses.
Enhanced Bond Strength
Polymer-modified bonding agents create a tenacious chemical bond between old and new concrete in repair and overlay applications — eliminating delamination risk.
Corrosion Protection of Rebars
Migrating corrosion inhibitors penetrate concrete cover to reach steel reinforcement — creating a passivating film that significantly extends structure service life in chloride environments.
