An efficient way of fast and easy placing of concrete is the use of self-compacting concrete. It is able to flow under its own weight, completely filling formwork and achieving full compaction without vibration, even in the presence of congested reinforcement.
Self-compacting concrete (SCC) utilises Sika's admixture technologies to achieve a fresh concrete that can be placed or pumped very easily without the need of mechanical vibration, and without compromising strength, durability or other valued properties such as aesthetics.

What are the advantages of self-compacting concrete?
With advanced concrete technology and suitable admixture application, adequate workability, rapid installation and subsequent fast strength development of the concrete can be ensured whereas fast strength development is critical for swift production. Application of innovative concrete mix designs such as Self Compacting Concrete (SCC) offer further advantages.
- Rapid installation
- Vibration work can be eliminated
- Substantially improving the working environment in a precast concrete factory.
