About CemteQ
CemteQ produces a range of smart, sustainable building products using blends of cementitious materials, admixtures and Perlite in South Africa.
In addition to providing exceptional thermal insulation, our unique perlite and cement composites are extremely lightweight and fire-resistant, reduce noise transmission and are non-toxic and environmentally-friendly.
Typical construction applications include lightweight, insulating plasters as well as floor and roof screeds, insulation boards, cavity fill and fire-protection of beams and columns.
Perlite has been widely used in construction in the Middle East, Europe and the USA for over 50 years. Its low density and relatively low price make it ideal for use in eco-friendly mixtures with cementitious materials. Typical applications include:
- Lightweight and insulating plasters
- Insulating screeds on concrete floors or flat roofs
- Lightweight and insulating concrete
- Loose fill in cavities for insulation
- Fireproofing of structural steel columns
- Lightweight precast cladding
- Decorative applications
