Duconmix WPR 700

Water-reducing Concrete admixture

Duconmix WPR 700 is a polymer-based liquid concrete admixture manufactured by Ducon Construction Chemicals Industries Ltd. at our Gazipur facility in Bangladesh. It is designed to reduce water demand in concrete while improving workability, strength, durability, and waterproofing performance.

Suitable for ready-mix and precast concrete, as well as basements, foundations, water tanks, tunnels, roof slabs, and general structural applications, it helps produce dense and durable concrete with reduced water penetration. Duconmix WPR 700 complies with IS 2645, IS 9103, and ASTM C494 Type A standards.

Pack Size:

5 kg, 10 kg, 20 kg, 250 kg and 1 Ton drums

Consumption:

0.2–0.8% by weight of cement

What is Duconmix WPR 700?

Ready-mix plants and site engineers in Bangladesh are usually choosing between two separate products: a plasticiser that improves workability, and a waterproofing admixture that seals the concrete against moisture. Duconmix WPR 700 was formulated to close that gap in one product. It is a specially formulated polymer-based liquid, compatible with all types of cement and cementitious binders, including fly ash, ground granulated blast furnace slag, silica fume, and metakaolin, so it fits into most existing mix designs without adjustment.

Ducon Construction Chemicals Industries Ltd manufactures Duconmix WPR 700, a high-performance water-reducing admixture, under controlled batch conditions at its own facility and backs every drum with a technical data sheet, test certification, and dosage guidance rather than site-level guesswork. For procurement teams comparing concrete admixture prices in Bangladesh across multiple suppliers, that batch-to-batch consistency is often the deciding factor over a marginally lower quote, and it is one reason Ducon is recognised among the industrial concrete admixture suppliers BD ready-mix operators return to for repeat orders.

Application Process

1. Surface & Material Preparation

Ensure all concrete materials are clean, properly measured, and ready for mixing. Determine the optimum dosage through trial mixes based on the required concrete performance.

2. Admixture Dosage

Use DUCONMIX WPR 700 at the recommended dosage of 0.2–0.8% by weight of cement to achieve the desired workability and waterproofing performance.

3. Mixing Procedure

Add DUCONMIX WPR 700 together with the mixing water after 50–70% of the water has been introduced into the mixer. Continue mixing until a uniform and homogeneous concrete mix is achieved.

4. Concrete Placement

Place, compact, and finish the concrete using good concreting practices. Maintain a water-cement ratio of 0.40–0.60 for optimum waterproofing performance.

5. Curing Process

Begin curing immediately after finishing to minimize moisture loss and achieve the required strength, durability, and waterproofing performance.

6. Safe Handling

Handle the product using appropriate PPE. Avoid contact with eyes and skin, reseal containers after use, and refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS/MSDS) before application.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where can I find reliable industrial concrete admixture suppliers in Bangladesh?

Ducon Construction Chemicals Industries Ltd. is one of the leading industrial concrete admixture suppliers BD engineers rely on for batch-to-batch consistency, ISO 9001:2015 certification, and factory-direct supply from our Gazipur production facility. We provide Duconmix WPR 700 as a proven choice for ready-mix plants, infrastructure projects, and site engineers who need a water-reducing admixture backed by test certification and proper dosage guidance rather than site-level guesswork.

What is the ready mix concrete chemical price in Bangladesh?

Our ready mix concrete chemical price for Duconmix WPR 700 is BDT 65,000 per tonne, available in pack sizes ranging from 5 kg to 1 tonne drums to suit both small site orders and large batching plant requirements. We offer factory-direct dispatch from our Gazipur facility, so contractors and ready-mix operators get consistent quality at a competitive ready mix concrete chemical price without middleman markups.

Which concrete admixtures for mega projects in Bangladesh deliver the strength, durability, and consistency required at scale?

Ducon supply concrete admixtures for mega projects including bridges, flyovers, tunnels, marine structures, and large-scale infrastructure where batch-to-batch consistency and compliance with international standards like ASTM C494 and IS:9103 are non-negotiable. Our Duconmix WPR 700 is trusted by engineers and ready-mix plants across Bangladesh because we back every drum with ISO 9001:2015 certification, full test documentation, and dedicated technical support from our Gazipur production facility.

Do you offer customized admixture solutions for contractors handling diverse structural requirements across multiple project types?

Yes, Ducon provides customised admixture solutions for contractors who need more than a one-size-fits-all product, whether the job involves waterproof basements, high-strength bridge decks, precast units, or water-retaining structures in aggressive environments. Our technical team works directly with contractors to recommend the right dosage, mix design adjustments, and product combination from our full admixture range so every pour meets the specified grade and performance target.

What are the main concrete admixture types and their uses in BD construction projects?

The most commonly used concrete admixture types and their uses in BD projects include water reducers for improving strength and workability, retarding superplasticizers for long-distance ready-mix delivery, early strength admixtures for fast formwork removal, and PCE-based superplasticizers for high-performance structural concrete. We manufacture the full range under our Duconmix product line, so contractors and engineers across Bangladesh can source the right admixture type for foundations, bridges, water tanks, or precast units from a single trusted supplier.

What is bituminous waterproofing and where is it used?

Bituminous waterproofing is a membrane-based system that seals roofs, basements, and foundations against water, extending a building's lifespan and preventing structural damage where, 'Ducon' supplies D-Shield bituminous membranes in 1.5mm, 3mm, and 4mm thicknesses for roofs, wet areas, and below-grade structures.

Are there concrete admixtures for sustainable building BD projects that help reduce material waste and carbon footprint?

Yes, using concrete admixtures for sustainable building BD projects is one of the most practical ways to lower cement consumption without compromising target strength, since a well-dosed water reducer allows engineers to maintain grade while cutting the cement content per cubic metre. Our Duconmix WPR 700 supports sustainable mix design by reducing water demand and enabling partial replacement of cement with supplementary materials like fly ash and GGBS, helping projects meet green building goals without additional cost.

Which concrete chemical for bridge and highway projects in Bangladesh offers the best long-term durability against chloride and weather damage?

Our Duconmix WPR 700 is a proven concrete chemical for bridge and highway projects because it reduces permeability at the mix design stage, limiting chloride ingress, sulfate attack, and surface deterioration caused by years of weather cycling and heavy traffic loading. We supply it with full ASTM C494 and IS:9103 compliance documentation, which consulting engineers and government procurement teams routinely require before approving an admixture for infrastructure use in Bangladesh.

How does using admixture to reduce cement content in concrete help contractors manage project costs in Bangladesh?

Using admixture to reduce cement content in concrete is one of the most effective cost-control strategies available to ready-mix operators and site engineers, because cement is consistently the most expensive ingredient in any mix design and even a 5 to 10 percent reduction per cubic metre adds up significantly across a large pour. Our Duconmix WPR 700 makes this possible by lowering the water-cement ratio so the target strength grade is achieved with less cement, without any sacrifice in workability, finishing quality, or structural performance.

What is the water reducing concrete admixture price per liter?

Our water reducing concrete admixture price is BDT 65,000 per tonne, and because Duconmix WPR 700 is manufactured locally at our Gazipur facility, contractors avoid the import lead times, customs delays, and currency fluctuation risks that come with sourcing a water-reducing concrete admixture from overseas suppliers. The low dosage rate of 200 grams per 50 kg cement bag.
