The Problem With Split-Pack

One bag. Zero guesswork.

That’s True Pre-Blend.

Underground shotcrete crews depend on consistency — but most bagged products
require on-site mixing of separate aggregate and cementitious components.
That creates a step that introduces foreign contamination, machine blockages, and
production delays at every shift.

Split-Pack — Competitors’ Approach

  1. Outer bag + separate inner cementitious sachet
  2. Manually mix aggregate and cement together
  3. Pan mixer required underground — introduces foreign debris risk
  4. Load into machine hopper
  5. Shoot

Every bag opening introduces contamination risk — machine blockages and pipe stoppages at every shift.

Strata — True Pre-Blend

  • Break the bag into the hopper

  • Add water at the nozzle

  • Shoot

Factory-blended to SANS specification. No on-site mixing.
No contamination risk. Meets the technical standard of world-leading pre-blended dry-mix systems.
