Construction Chemicals for Mortar & Concrete

MIKEM supplies construction chemicals for dry-mix mortar and concrete formulations, including cellulose ethers, redispersible polymer powders, superplasticizers, setting-control additives, defoamers, and reinforcement fibers.

Our solutions help manufacturers and formulators select suitable additives for tile adhesives, renders, plasters, self-leveling compounds, repair mortars, and concrete applications. Product performance depends on the complete formulation, dosage, raw materials, and processing conditions.

ONE PORTFOLIO. TWO CORE CONSTRUCTION SYSTEMS.

Construction Additives for Better Material Performance

Modern construction materials are expected to do more — deliver better workability, stronger performance, greater consistency and more efficient application.

MIKEM provides a comprehensive portfolio of construction chemicals for two core building material systems: dry-mix mortar and concrete.

From rheology modification and water retention to water reduction, setting control and crack resistance, our additives help manufacturers and formulators optimize performance across different construction applications.
