- Uses latest technology to distinguish between beneficial fines and clay contamination, mitigating negative impact of latter
- Use clay bearing aggregates (natural and crushed) without compromising on concrete performance
- Significantly increases manufactured sand amount in mix design
- Increase utilization of lower quality / clay contaminated aggregates
- Significantly improves concrete performance through lowering water demand and concrete admixtures demand by blocking clay particles
