Improves construction material durability.
Low-carbon concrete additive solution.
GGBS is commonly used in infrastructure projects, including bridges, tunnels, and large-scale buildings, where strength and durability are critical. Incorporating GGBS into your cement mix can reduce your environmental footprint while providing superior performance.
BSEN15167-1
Ground granulated blast furnace slag (GGBS) is an essential cement material used to enhance concrete durability and workability. As a by-product of steel production, GGBS offers significant benefits, including improved resistance to chemical attack, reduced heat of hydration, and a longer lifespan for concrete structures. Explore how LKAB Minerals supplies high-quality GGBS and other minerals to meet your cement material needs.
Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag (GGBS) is a cement substitute that improves durability. It is a by-product of the iron-making industry. GGBS, used in a concrete mix, offers a good alternative to traditional Portland Cement.
The abbreviation GGBS or GGBFS are interchangeable and mean Ground Granulated Blast Furnace Slag.
As a by-product of existing industrial processes, GGBS has 10 times less embodied C02 than the average CEM1 product and can be used to replace up to 70% CEM1 in concrete*. Our products conform to BS EN 15167-1, the British standard for using Ground Granulated Blast furnace Slag in concrete, mortar, and grout.
GGBS counts fully towards the cement content of concrete mixes.
