CLEVA CRETE’S Core Competencies

Service-Oriented Staff

In today’s fast-paced building arena, CLEVA CRETE offers a refreshingly old-fashioned service-oriented experience through a clear process, that allows a high level of collaboration between all stakeholders on any construction site, considering project specific needs for the most desirable outcomes.

On-Site Planning

CLEVA CRETE proudly prepares and educates all affected parties, including concrete finishers, builders and associated trades, prior to every concrete pour.

This will often involve the full co-ordination of concrete truck dosing, safe site operations, selection of dosing location and best practice for co-ordinating mixed pours. These pre-pour meetings enable smooth execution of every pour.

Reliability

CLEVA CRETE has carried out its due diligence on the best quality dosing equipment so there is never failure to dose concrete trucks quickly and safely every time.

The same is required with reliability and maintenance of all dosing vehicles to ensure on-site presence as required to carry out all on-site or batch plant procedures without incident or delays.

Testing Regime

On-site testing of all concrete areas modified with a CLEVA CRETE admixture, is an essential part of ensuring the efficacy of the 25 year moisture egress warranty, unique to CLEVA CRETE 842 MVRA.

During all 72 hour testing operations on site, consideration is given to locations for testing so as to do so with minimal disruption to the many other trades inside the building. This is paramount to on-site operations, as it reinforces our understanding of time-frames and deadlines for building handovers.

Warranty

The CLEVA CRETE 842 MVRA. 25-year warranty against moisture egress is the best in its class and is the only such warranty that includes materials and labor.

There have been no failures with this technology in over 35 years, where CLEVA CRETE’S quality control measures have been adopted, ensuring its inclusion in the matrix of a structure’s concrete.
