Advancements in construction and the usage of high-end technologies are helping construction professionals find solutions to everyday problems. Currently, the country is witnessing an acute crisis of sand in most parts, and lack of sand-free products are a solution to the woes of procurement of good quality sand.

“With widening corporate culture, centralised procurement even in the mid-level entities are increasing. This trend has benefitted building material manufacturers greatly as awareness about quality, availability and suitability has increased substantially,” says Sunil Chaurasia, Business Head, Perlcon Premix Pvt Ltd.

Block masonry mortars, wall putty and tile adhesives are preferred over conventional sand-cement mortar for big projects. Awareness on ready-mix plaster and mechanised plastering system has also increased. Basic cost, rather than the final application cost, has been the prime factor in selecting procurement. Market is yet to grasp benefits of reduction in time, material handling, wastage, etc.

“We are finding it difficult to convince our customers about the difference between basic cost and actual cost,” he says.

With better features and quality assurances, the company products can be accurately estimated for a given work quantity. That means, more accurate & precise procurement which results in far lesser inventory as well as wastage during the work. The dry mix mortar formulations manufacturer facilitating quicker and better post-structural construction uses a fine blend of specially-selected natural minerals. The products enable safeguarding new construction from the impact of sand usages, such as shrinkage, severe heating and cooling cycles, efflorescence, etc. In turn, it increases the longevity and serviceability.
