General-purpose cement is designed for all those parts of the construction that do not require high resistance, such as floors, sidewalks, and non-load-bearing walls.
On the other hand, industrial cement is a product designed for structural loads such as beams, columns, floors, and prefabricated elements, among others, which accelerates the work speed of the construction, ensuring good performance.
Luis Baltodano, Quality and Environment Manager at Cementos Progreso Costa Rica, explains that it is very common for individuals to rely on the builder’s knowledge, completely dissociating themselves from cement purchasing. «It is very important to know these five recommendations for making a proper purchase and ensuring our investment,» he says.
Cementos Progreso operates its production plant in Abangares de Colorado, Guanacaste, from where it manufactures, markets, and distributes nationwide.
