General Purpose Cement 20kg Bag

Cement Australia General Purpose Cement is a versatile, cost-effective cement for concrete, mortar, render and grout. It’s the straightforward choice when you’re mixing your own and want consistent, reliable results, and it suits everything from footings and slabs to garden and repair work.

It’s made in Australia and complies with the Australian Standard for Type GP cement under AS 3972 (General purpose and blended cements), so you know exactly what you’re getting.

This is a mix-your-own cement. Combine it with clean sand and aggregate in the correct proportions, using a mixer for larger jobs. Add clean water gradually until the mix is workable, because excess water weakens the finished concrete. Use it straight after mixing, and keep the job moist for 7 days for the best results.

Key specifications:
