For the successful production of concrete products by vibration casting, three essential components are required: pigments, plasticizer and lubricant.

Pigments

• Gives products bright and durable colors;
• Provide a wide color palette to suit different design preferences;
• Added to the concrete mixture to obtain the desired shade.

Plasticizer

• Improves the plasticity of concrete, making it more pliable;
• Increases the fluidity of the mixture, making it easier to fill molds;
• Reduces cement consumption, which leads to savings and increased strength.

Lubricant

• Creates a barrier between concrete and form, preventing sticking;
• Ensures easy removal of formwork after curing;
• Prevents the formation of cracks, pores and other defects on the surface of the product.
