About CTS CEMENT MANUFACTURING CORP.
CTS Cement is the leading manufacturer of advanced hydraulic calcium sulfoaluminate (CSA) cement technology. Our product lines offer a broad range of high-performance concrete and grout solutions for new construction and repair/maintenance/renovation projects in every market segment: industrial, institutional, critical infrastructure, government, marine, commercial, aviation, tunneling and mining, and more.
Komponent® shrinkage-compensating concrete & grout solutions are engineered to improve structural behavior and dimensional stability and enhance durability by preventing negative volume change and drying shrinkage cracking. These Type K cement-based materials increase density, lower permeability and improve both sulfate resistance and abrasion resistance. They offer maximum design versatility while improving the long-term integrity and durability of the concrete and preventing costly challenges related to concrete deterioration, repair, and structural failure.
Rapid Set® products provide professional-grade concrete and concrete repair materials engineered for rapid strength gain, low shrinkage, and long-term durability. They are ideal for projects were emergency repairs, fast return to service and reduced installation times are critical. Gaining structural strength in one hour means you can build faster without compromising durability.
CSA cements provide ultra-low carbon material solutions with unrivaled durability, design versatility, and long-term sustainability. Their low carbon intensity makes carbon-neutral designs possible without sacrificing performance, all while improving constructability, project efficiencies, optimized cost value and extended asset life.
