Last week, Fundi Masonry Cement, a new cement product joined the growing list of products offered by the innovative Hima Cement Limited.
Hima Cement has for years been famous for products such as Multipurpose, Rapidset, PowerCrete, PowerMax, PowerPlus, RoadCem, Minecem and Supaset, thanks to their prized quality.
After a meticulous research, development and manufacturing efforts, Hima Cement Ltd on Wednesday 17th February officially unveiled Fundi Masonry Cement as it continues to lead the way as the most innovative company in Uganda’s construction industry.
Fundi Cement is a game changer when it comes to all masonry and construction mortar works such as plastering, brick and block laying, rendering, stucco, screeding, pointing, and repair works for individual home builders and large construction projects.
The manufacturing experts at Hima Cement carefully selected and tested high quality raw materials from their materials laboratory to make Fundi Cement,this was in a bid to ensure that they meet the required standard. Fundi masonry cement is manufactured at Hima Cement’s Tororo grinding station in Tororo District and the Hima Cement plant in Kasese District.
When the product is used correctly, the following are guaranteed:
Improved Plasticity
Fundi Cement has the ability to cling on placement and slide smoothly off the trowel during application,
leading to less mortar wastage and improved workmanship.
Better workability means that it is effective enough and easy to use.
Mixing & Application Ease
The product is also easy to mix and apply. Construction workers will use less time to mix Fundi Cement
compared to other cement products on the market.
Good board life during application
When construction workers use Fundi Cement, the mortar remains pliable for a reasonable time to
enable them execute their job at whatever ambient conditions on site.
Good Water Retention
Fundi cement has also been made with excellent water holding abilities during application (board life),
hence preventing uncontrolled water loss.
Good Strength
Fundi Cement has the ability to ensure strong bonds between the bricks and blocks.
Durability
Fundi Cement limits efflorescence – the process by which salting leads to expansive weakening andpeeling of bottom wall plastering.
By doing this, the cement product ensures that walls last longer giving customers value for their money,than those built with other cement products, which require repair after a very short period of time.
Smooth Finishes
The cement is finely ground to guarantee smooth plaster finishes.
Enhanced with various attributes and ingredients that guarantee quality of work, improve workmanship, and generally meet construction needs, Fundi Masonry Cement is worth being on the list of your building materials.
The product is already on the market, and can be accessed at a retail hardware store near you or on Jumia.
