The benefits of the dry silo mortar system over other methods of providing mortar to the site are numerous and represent the opportunity to enhance business opportunities through potential cost-saving benefits:
• Kasprs dry silo produced mortar contains a guaranteed cement content, controlled air, and
workability aid contents, contained within guaranteed mix proportions, which provide the
customer with a durable mortarless susceptible to frost attack and exhibiting superior
resistance to rain penetration.
• Accurate and controlled pigment addition results in superior color consistency for colored mortar applications.
• There is no need to use retarders in Kasprs dry silo mortar, as the material only needs to be
produced from the silo when it is required.
• The system allows as much or as little to be produced from the silo as required, from a bucketful
to a tubful, meaning wastage is kept to a minimum.
• Workability of the mortar can be adjusted to meet any on-site masonry application, resulting in
increased productivity.
• Dry material for mixing is always available from the silo whenever required - eliminating
downtime and increasing productivity.
• Silos take up a relatively small area on site meaning space is effectively utilized.
Mortar can be produced at the press of a button, meaning labor intensity and health and safety
concerns are reduced, compared to traditional site mixing.
• Material stored in the silo is not exposed to the elements so therefore retains it’s integrity, reducing wastage and also removing the chance of opportunist theft.
• Large quantities of mortar are delivered via bulk powder tanker, which reduces on-site traffic movements significantly.
• Site presentation is considerably improved.
• Noise produced by the silo mixer unit is minimal, particularly advantageous where sites are
located close to schools, hospitals,
existing residential areas etc.
