Raw Material Supplies
Since 2006, our team at CEMTECH has been supplying top-quality natural pozzolan, also known as trass or pozzolana. This special material helps make cement stronger and has been used by cement factories in Turkey and around the world for more than 20 years.
Next to pozzolan, CEMTECH provides high-quality raw materials and byproducts for making cement and concrete, serving both integrated cement plants and grinding plants overseas. Our products help make strong, durable buildings and include also clay, furnace slag (GBFS), natural gypsum, fly ash and aggregate.

POZZOLAN
Pozzolan - a material containing silica and aluminum - transformed how the ancient Romans constructed buildings, as it enabled the creation of durable concrete that could even set underwater. Because of its unique chemical properties, structures like the Pantheon were able to stay upright for numerous years. Today, pozzolan is still highly prized for its longevity and eco-friendliness, playing a key role in modern construction techniques that seek to reduce the carbon footprint in cement production.

CALCINED CLAY
Calcined clay is revolutionizing the construction industry by being a key player in sustainable building practices. Heating natural clay to high temperatures changes it into a highly reactive material, improving the strength and durability of concrete. Its real charm comes from being environmentally friendly, which decreases the use of regular cement and lowers carbon emissions. As we strive for more sustainable advancements, calcined clay emerges as a crucial component in the development of durable, environmentally-friendly infrastructure.

FURNACE SLAG (GBFS)
Furnace Slag (GBFS), or Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag, is the hidden treasure born from the iron-making process. As molten slag flows from the blast furnace, it is swiftly quenched, transforming into a fine, glassy granulate. This unique process creates a material that brings strength and durability to modern construction. When blended into concrete, GBFS not only enhances its resilience and longevity but also contributes to a more sustainable, eco-friendly solution by reducing reliance on traditional cement.

GYPSUM
Gypsum (GPP) is the unsung hero of the construction world, emerging from the earth as a soft, white mineral with incredible potential. Once mined and processed, it transforms into a versatile material used to create everything from smooth wall finishes to resilient drywall panels. Gypsum’s natural properties allow it to regulate humidity, resist fire, and provide strength, making it an essential element in building safe, comfortable spaces.
-
FLY ASH
Fly ash enhances concrete’s strength, durability, and workability, making it a sustainable alternative to traditional cement. Its unique properties not only improve the quality of the concrete but also reduce the environmental impact by recycling what would otherwise be waste. With its transformative power, fly ash turns the energy of the past into the resilient structures of tomorrow.

LIMESTONE
Limestone, as a versatile and abundant material, is an essential component in both industrial and environmental applications, supporting sustainable construction and agricultural practices.
