As Eswatini continues to invest in durable and cost-effective road infrastructure, contractors and developers are turning to reliable, high-performance materials that deliver long-term value.
One such product leading the way is Afrimat’s RoadCem, a specialised road-binding cement engineered to strengthen and stabilise a wide range of soil types. Now conveniently available at Njengebantfu in Matsapha for just E105, RoadCem is fast becoming the preferred choice for robust road construction.
Engineered for road building excellence
RoadCem is part of Afrimat’s innovative range of specialist soil-stabilising cements, formulated to improve the engineering properties of soil used in road construction. Designed specifically for road base, sub-base and sub-grade applications, RoadCem offers contractors:
- Improved strength – Boosts soil bearing capacity for tougher, more reliable roads.
- Better volume stability – Reduces swelling and shrinking caused by moisture changes.
- Exceptional durability – Increases resistance to traffic loading, erosion and weather extremes.
- Enhanced soil modification – Improves clay mineral structure, resulting in stronger layers.
Its versatility also extends to projects involving soils with low to moderate plasticity, ash dump stabilisation, deep-lift in-situ stabilisation and pugmill blending.
Quality you can trust
Afrimat produces RoadCem in accordance with SANS 50197-1 (EN 197-1) standards, ensuring consistent quality and performance. The product comes in two formulations:
CEM V/B (S-V) 32,5 Composite Cement – Produced at Afrimat Randfontein Grinding Station.
CEM II/B-L 32,5N Portland-Limestone Cement – Produced at Afrimat Lichtenburg Cement Works.
All RoadCem bags carry the SABS mark, LOA number and e-Mark–assurance of strict compliance with regulated quality standards.
Storage & handling
- Stored cement must not be exposed to moisture:
- Preferably, store bags in a shed on plastic sheeting or pallets
- Only stack pallets two high – three is unstable and unsafe
- Close windows and doors to prevent damp air blowing over the bags
- Make tidy stacks with wide aisles to avoid damage by forklifts
- If stored outside, stack loose bags on pallets or timber slats under plastic sheeting
- Make a ridge with the sheeting so that rain runs off
- Cement deteriorates with time, therefore, plan the layout of your stacks so that the first-in bags can conveniently be the first out (FIFO)
- When lifting bags of cement, keep a straight back and bend at the knees
- Handle bags carefully to avoid tearing the plastic
