Metakaolin Supplier

As a premium metakaolin supplier, R-E-D is proud to offer this anhydrous calcined structure of the aluminosilicate clay mineral kaolinite to provide enhanced pozzolanic reactivity in concrete, improve resistance to chemical attacks, and premium structural integrity.

Supplier of Dynapoz Metakaolin

R-E-D Industrial Products is a Dynapoz metakaolin supplier, a superior supplementary cementitious material (SCM) product. Dynapoz is precisely engineered to boost pozzolanic reactivity in concrete, significantly enhancing performance. Whether used as a primary SCM or in ternary concrete blends, metakaolin offers desirable properties such as enhanced structural integrity, compressive strength, erosion control, and resistance to thermal shock and chemical attack. Due to the beneficial properties provided by this premium product, R-E-D has established itself as a primary metakaolin supplier for infrastructure projects, marine-related construction, commercial buildings, and countless other applications across North America.

​

R-E-D’s Dynapoz Metakaolin is an ultra-fine material derived from naturally occurring aluminum silicate mineral kaolin. It meets technical specifications ASTM C-618 and AASHTO M295-11, Class N pozzolan specifications, ensuring consistent quality and performance. Our proprietary manufacturing process optimizes pozzolanic reactivity, ensuring the highest standards of quality and consistency.

​

R-E-D is proud to be a leading metakaolin supplier for small-scale and large applications. We can meet your next project's quantity demands and deadlines with a reliable supply chain and several processing facilities. We currently offer Dynapoz in 40-pound bags with 50 bags to a pallet, 2000-pound palletized bulk bags, and via bulk truckload deliveries. Please contact us for additional information or to receive a quote for R-E-D to become your dedicated metakaolin supplier.

Metakaolin & Sustainability

Dynapoz metakaolin from R-E-D Industrial Products improves functionality and application sustainability. This is how choosing R-E-D as your metakaolin supplier can make a difference in the longevity and viability of diverse concrete applications. As more large-scale projects emphasize green products and a reduction of CO2 emissions, metakaolin has quickly become an increasingly viable additive to concrete mixtures. The information below details how metakaolin can provide the confidence that you are making a sustainable choice for your next project.

​

Sustainability Benefits of Metakaolin:

  • Increased water resistance reduces the erosion of concrete into waterways and the surrounding environment

  • Increased mechanical strength in concrete structures reduces the need for additional structural components and raw materials

  • High thermal resistance to withstand the considerable temperature fluctuations degrading concrete structures, most notably roadways, throughout North America

  • Anti-corrosive properties improve the durability of concrete subjected to harsh conditions, promoting lower life cycle costs in environments subject to chloride exposure or other forms of chemical attack

 

Implementations:

  • Metakaolin’s improved water resistance enhances longevity for concrete structures in proximity or immersed in water, such as bridges, dams, and tunnels, promoting longer vitality and less maintenance requirements

  • Higher mechanical or compressive strength, when used in UHPC mixtures, can promote lower costs throughout the life cycle of the concrete

  • Higher thermal resistance makes it a perfect SCM for projects in areas where climate change has created increased levels of temperature change, increasing the deterioration of concrete structures

 

Why Metakaolin?

  • Adding metakaolin to concrete reduces the number of materials needed for concrete vertical columns, coupled with its strengthening properties, cuts back on use and increases sustainability

  • Metakaolin is an environmentally friendly and naturally occurring green product that reduces overall CO2 creation and lowers amounts of greenhouse gas emissions

  • Metakaolin is an ethically sourced product that can boost your green initiatives and reduce rising freight costs to support the project's bottom line

  • Produces a smoother finish that cuts back on cracking, promoting more efficient infrastructure less susceptible to penetration, erosion, and loss of structural integrity 

 

Sustainability Fact: According to the National Transportation Research Non-Profit group, 28 percent of the nation's major roadways, including interstates, freeways, and major arterial roadways in urban areas, are in "poor" condition. This means they have so many major ruts, cracks, and potholes that they can't simply be resurfaced; they need to be rebuilt entirely [1].
