CHRYSO®Quad range

Promoting the circular economy: an evolution in aggregate supplies

The use of a wide range of sands, with the integration of complex sands, makes it possible to optimize local resources, reduce supply costs and reduce the carbon footprint.
With the CHRYSO®Quad solution, CHRYSO extends the field of use of complex aggregates in concrete mix designs.  It thus becomes possible to use aggregates sourced locally and/or from deconstruction sites, while maintaining the technical performance of the concrete.

Enter the virtuous circle of the circular economy

The implementation of a circular economy approach with the use of local aggregates or from deconstruction sites is a major challenge for accelerating sustainable construction.

The CHRYSO®Quad range and dedicated services make it possible to optimize production costs  and improve the quality and performance of concrete  using complex aggregates.

Analysis of your sand

Thanks to CHRYSO®Clear Test, a new tool, patented and developed by CHRYSO, we are able to quickly reveal the presence of swelling clays in sand.

The test can be carried out directly in the field or in the laboratory. It offers immediate and targeted results
