Using Gypsol anhydrite binder creates a pumpable, self-smoothing floor screed. Moreover, this screed is an economically advantageous and a sustainable alternative to the labour-intensive and traditional sand cement screeds.
LKAB Minerals offers several mineral products to the building and construction industry to improve and optimally built your constructions. Learn more from our website and contact our specialists to hear even more.
Our customers use industrial minerals to improve constructions, increase safety and reduce costs.
Including GGBS in a concrete mix helps to protect from sources of damage and significantly improves the durability of concrete.
Andricite® is a synthetic anhydrous calcium sulphate which our customers use in the production of aerated building blocks. It is both a chemistry agent as well as a cement additive.

MagnaDense is a high density aggregate, used as heavy weight ballast in many applications; either as a loose ballast aggregate or incorporated into concrete.
Our customers use high-density MagnaDense concrete as a radiation shielding to protect against the hazard of nuclear radiation leakage.
Ever since the 1960’s the industry uses MagnaDense high density concrete for radiation protection in hospitals and oncology clinics all over the world.
Walls, ceilings and floors containing MagnaDense radiation shielding concrete protect against ionizing radiation due to the high density.
MicaFort, a high aspect ratio mineral filler, improves appearance and stability of drywall-, plaster- and fire resistant wallboards and joint cement.
MicaFort is a widely used additive in the formulation to produce fireproof sprayable cement, for steel protection.
ATH and DekorFlake are both natural minerals used as key ingredients in composite materials used as solid surfacing.
FireCarb is used as an active agent to passively protect against fire.
You can use MagnaDense as aggregate mixed into heavy concrete or as loose ballast for bridges in need of extra weight in the suspension, legs, pivot or deck.
You can use high-density MagnaDense aggregate in heavy concrete blocks designed in specific shapes for coastal protection against water and weather influences.
LKAB Minerals manufactures high density and heavy MagnaDense, produced from the natural iron ore Magnetite, for the production of concrete counterweights.
Calcined Bauxite, an optimum aggregate for anti-skid applications, creates a high level of skid resistance for use in High Friction Surfacing (HFS).
When building underground concrete structures such as tunnels, garages, sluices and more, you can use MagnaDense concrete for controlling buoyancy and overcoming issues with sound, vibration and hydraulic pressure.
Replacing fine and coarse aggregates in concrete with LKAB Minerals natural aggregate MagnaDense allows you to produce heavy weight concrete with a high density of up to 4.0 t/m3.
DekorFlake is a range of natural Mica flakes designed to impart a decorative metallic effect and aesthetic appeal to building and construction applications.
