The Indian market for construction sector and simultaneously the building materials of which construction chemicals is a subdivision, is rapidly growing in size and evolving in terms of technology. CAC is a preferred alternative to MNCs and importers of concrete additives and construction chemicals. The company manufactures the full spectrum of polymers all of which were earlier imported.CACs integrated manufacturing facilities cover pan-India locations.This, along with its own fleet of specialized vehicles delivers compelling, efficient, and competitive value to customers. Today CAC serves customers across India, Middle-East and Africa and is in the process of expanding to other global markets.
Looking beyond admixtures, the company has developed integral crystalline waterproofing, CAC Crystaseal and integral organic corrosion inhibitor CAC-Corrobit OCI as two key products for concrete durability enhancement that have been accepted globally over the recent years. In-house manufacturing of base key polymers and key raw materials required to make these construction chemicals leads to superior performance for the customers. This has certainly created customer loyalty for the company for last decade and has further been a major factor in CACs success so far.
