Subterranean termites are a severe problem in structures worldwide and property developers and homeowners  need to consider the benefits of prevention of termite attacks as opposed to the risks likely associated with remedial control.

Admixtures have for a long while played a vital role in the production of quality concrete and mortars in all segments of the industry – be it readymix, precast or site-batch – for its ability to add value and contribute to the successful production of concrete for specialised applications.

Corrosion mitigation practices have come a long way since they were first used a few decades ago. Today, these practices include: increasing the concrete cover, reducing the concrete's permeability, using reinforcement that is more resistant to corrosion, and using corrosion-inhibiting admixtures.
