Illinois's harsh winters, heavy infrastructure investment, and major commercial construction market demand concrete that performs at the highest level. E5® delivers proven nano silica technology for Illinois's most demanding projects.
Illinois's climate — harsh winters with significant freeze-thaw cycling, de-icing salt exposure, and hot summers — creates demanding conditions for concrete. E5® Internal Cure provides the permeability resistance and durability needed for Illinois's IDOT infrastructure, Chicago-area commercial construction, and industrial facilities.
