Ambuja Cements Ltd is offering sustainable product Ambuja Plus, a special quality PPC (Portland Pozzolana) cement that has been created with an advanced formula and offers a strength advantage over Ordinary Portland Cement.
The performance enhancer technology of Ambuja Plus helps to extract maximum silicate gel from cement, making the concrete stronger, denser and leak proof. Aimed at end users like individual house builders, this cement helps provide structures with the extra strength needed.
It is packed in a special tamperproof bag, which keeps moisture out and thus retains the desired properties of cement for longer.

Key features and notable advantages are strong & dense concrete, higher strength, better workability, ease in working, superior finish and tamper proof packing.”
