From innovation to evergreen:
40 years of MELMENT® from Trostberg

• Plasticizer has significantly improved the properties of construction material systems, thus revolutionizing construction
• New and innovative admixtures such as MELFLUX® and STARVIS® supplement the portfolio and enable specific improvements

The BASF product is used to improve the fresh and strength properties of various construction material systems, such as concrete, mortar or anhydrite based flow screeds, and make them universally applicable in the construction industry. MELMENT® turns 40 this year and remains one of the world’s most frequently used plasticizers. Famous architectural landmarks, such as the Grande Arche in Paris or Denmark’s Great Belt Bridge are examples of the successful use of MELMENT®.
