Products

Q-LITE- Quality Lightweight Concrete Masonry Units, come in lots of sizes, they are different from ordinary masonry units as they possess unique qualities of being fire resistant, improve mason productivity, lower delivery costs, increase payloads for delivery trucks and reduce handling costs.They possess acoustical properties as they also reduce the transmission of unwanted noise.These Q-LITE cmu's have superior thermal properties and load carrying capabilities in a cost competitive wall system.

ConcreteLivelite structural light weight is the lightest rotary kiln produced aggregate and is an important ingredient in Q-LITE concrete masonry units.Livelite concrete is strong as compared to normal weight concrete.Its aggregate consists of ceramic and is quite durable.

GeotechnicalRotary kiln produced expanded ligt weight aggregate effectively solves geotechnological engineering problems and helps in transforming the unstable soil to a stable land.Reducing the weight of the technological fills upto one half, it also provides greater thermal resistance and acts like an insulation surface against waterline and steam lines.The aggregate is durable, highly strong and is Environment Friendly.

Asphalt Light Weight Aggregates when bonded with asphalt create an advanced road surface which is highly durable and has high friction.The light weight aggregate as produced by the rotary kiln is used on all types of road surfaces whether rural, city or free ways thus on all asphalt road surfaces and buildings, concrete masonry and geotechnical applications.LWA used on roads possesses high skid resistance which does not become slick under traffic actions and this resistance is due to its embedded structures or ceramic like edges which are always exposed.

Horticulture Big River HydRock is the best solution for various horticultural issues.The product is all natural, eco friendly soil enhancer.It is fully calcines material and is very advantageous due to its water and nutrient retentive nature, has high water release curves as well as high compressive strength.It is light weight and also acts as a medium for superior drainage and air space systems and that is the main reason to use it in Gardens/Parks, Golf courses, Roof gardens, Light weight retaining walls fills and many other many places.
