Sika offers a range of mine paste backfill admixtures that can be dosed directly into the wetted out mix of the paste plant. The admixtures act as a high range water reducer and therefore provide the opportunity to significantly reduce the cement consumption of the paste operation. Sika is in position to provide extensive on site support and to support you with the right paste backfill design.
