RUSSTECH ADMIXTURES

INFORMATION AND SERVICES

Since 1967, RussTech has been a Kentucky corporation supplying admixtures to the construction industry. Today, 33 years later, the company has tripled in size. RussTech is a key raw materials supplier throughout the United States and manufactures and/or distributes industrial chemicals such as sodium glucoheptonate, sodium nitrate, calcium nitrite, and sodium thiocyanate in approximately 35 states. RussTech is the major supplier of sodium glucoheptonate in the United States. In addition to concrete admixtures, other products produced by RussTech for the construction industry include form and surface retarders, curing & sealing compounds evaporation retardants, and water repellants.

Mission Statement - To supply the highest quality admixture products with the latest technology at the best value with superior technical backup and responsive personalized service.

Admixture Warranty - Admixtures carry a complete warranty with no disclaimers. RussTech will stand behind all products provided the true cause of any problem is fully researched and determined.

Product Technology - RussTech is a full line admixture supplier with the latest most up to date high technology products for the following applications:

Air entraining admixtures

Quality Control - RussTech incorporates only the highest quality raw materials that are available and has in-place a comprehensive quality assurance program that guarantees consistently high-performing admixtures. Each raw material is screened when it enters the plant and is tested for solids level, pH, and specific gravity. Before each finished product leaves the reactor/mixing vessel, it is screened for the highest consistency and performance using the latest technology in evaluating chemical admixtures. Our lab coefficient of variation consistently exceeds an "excellent" rating based on ASTM Laboratory specifications.

Bulk Delivery - Tankers deliver finished products from the Louisville manufacturing facility. Lead times are usually 1-3 days and are predictable. Tanker drivers are courteous, genuinely respectful of your property, and are routinely the same drivers. They will be familiar with your operation, consequently, less imposing. Deliveries will be made during normal business hours whenever possible.

Testing Hardened Concrete - RussTech backs up customers whenever needed, and has the capability to have petrographic examinations performed to determine the true cause of concrete problems or a failure. Also, assistance is available with soluble chloride ion determinations in materials or concrete and rapid chloride permeability testing.

Standard Deviation Reports - RussTech will prepare a professional statistical analysis report of concrete test specimen variability performance as per ACI 301.
