Where We Ship Concrete Admixtures
We export finished polycarboxylate and naphthalene superplasticizers to three Southeast Asian markets from one ISO 9001 production base in Guangdong. Each has its own ports, climate and duty considerations — and each starts from a different grade.
Philippines
Metro Manila haul times and year-round heat make slump retention the deciding factor. Shipped to Manila and Batangas.
Vietnam
The shortest route and the most technically demanding market. Cement variability makes trial mixes mandatory. Served via Cat Lai and Hai Phong.
Indonesia
The largest market and the longest route. Domestic legs to outer islands drive packing and shelf-life planning. Served via Tanjung Priok, Tanjung Perak and Belawan.

The Differences That Matter Before You Order
| Philippines | Vietnam | Indonesia | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main discharge ports | Manila, Batangas | Cat Lai (HCMC), Hai Phong, Da Nang | Tanjung Priok, Tanjung Perak, Belawan |
| Climate challenge | Hot year-round; long urban haul times | Hot south; genuine cool season in the north | Hot and humid year-round; no cool season |
| Usual starting grade | Slump-retention PCE for ready-mix | Grade confirmed by trial on local cement | Retention-grade PCE as a specification item |
| Typical first step | 1 L lab sample, then LCL or FCL | 1 L lab sample against named cement | 1 L lab sample plus packing plan |
| HS heading | 3824.40 | 3824.40 | 3824.40 |
Common to every shipment
What Does Not Change Between Markets
- One production base. Every batch comes from the same ISO 9001 certified facility in Guangdong — see how it runs
- Batch COA. A certificate of analysis per production batch, traceable to a production record, not a generic sheet reused across orders
- TDS and SDS at quotation. Your technical team evaluates before you commit, not after you pay
- Third-party tested figures. The water-reduction numbers on our product pages come from independent testing
- FORM E. Certificate of origin issued under the ASEAN-China Free Trade Area when requested before sailing
Two things we do deliberately differently from most exporters in this category.
First, we will not quote a dosage off a datasheet. Polycarboxylate performance depends on cement chemistry, aggregates, temperature and haul time, so dosage is confirmed by trial with your materials. The reasoning is set out in cement change and admixture compatibility.
Second, we do not send certificates freely on request. Certificates and test reports carry the registered manufacturing entity's name, so they are shared during supplier verification together with the underlying records — not as an attachment to a first enquiry. The checks we expect you to run on us are listed in how to verify an admixture supplier.
Not sure which grade fits your market?
Send us your cement brand, target strength, slump and retention window, haul time, ambient temperature and monthly volume. We will recommend a starting grade and quote landed to your port.
