Early Strength Concrete
Heidelberg Materials FastTrack
Accelerate your project timelines with our FastTrack early-strength concrete.
Designed with an innovative quick-drying formula, FastTrack enables rapid formwork removal thanks to its fast-setting properties, significantly enhancing productivity. Available from all our static and mobile production plants, this ready-mixed concrete is the perfect solution for fast-paced construction projects, ensuring reliability in demanding environments with tight deadlines.
Our high early-strength concrete is ideal for applications requiring a quick turnaround. The rapid setting times of the FastTrack range boost efficiency, making it well-suited for projects such as thinner sections, carriageway replacements, airport hard standings, warehouses, and precast structures.
Furthermore, our FastTrack solutions meet the specific engineering requirements of individual contracts, making them ideal for infrastructure projects like road and rail renovations.

Suggested Applications
- In buildings: columns, walls, beams, slabs, panels
- In civil engineering: high walls, tunnels, roads, airport hard standings, rail possession
- In precast facilities: beams, panels, specific elements
- Accelerate critical sections of the construction process
- Regain time if the construction process has been previously delayed
- Ideal for areas where early trafficking is a critical construction issue such as yards, car parks, access roads and floor areas
- Water control structures where long term diversion of water is impractical
Bespoke Early Strength Concrete
Our early strength concrete range can be designed for various levels of compressive strength, enabling the concrete to take a vast amounts of different loads from low compressive strength when strength properties are not integral to the project, to a very high compressive strength where a high level of strength is imperative to the success of the project
- Complies with BS EN 206-1 and BS 8500-2
- Available in a range of compressive strength classes
- Can be designed to meet a wide range of exposure classes
- Suitable for pumping
Benefits
- Reduces production time and increases productivity
- Cost savings through reduced labour and cost for rental construction equipment
- Ensures production deadlines can be met with confidence
- Reduces the requirement for external heating
- Achieves high early-strength and high ultimate strength giving a very durable concrete
Benefits subject to good concreting practice (placement, finishing and curing).
Case Study - One St Peter's Square
The use of Sika concrete admixtures has played a key role in the construction of the 65 metre high central concrete lift shaft at One St Peter’s Square, a 270,000 sq ft BREEAM Excellent (sustainability standard) building. Read more about this project.
