MixAway Cement Bag
The Gravis MixAway bag, designed for cement and pre-mixed concrete, is engineered to disintegrate. Once filled, the bag can be added directly to your concrete mixer. Within seven minutes, the mechanical action of sand, stones, and water causes the bag to break down completely, seamlessly integrating into the mix with no residue. The disintegrability of the MixAway bag is achieved through a specialized manufacturing process applied to the cellulose in the paper. This process results in a disintegration rate exceeding 90%, significantly higher than standard bag papers, which typically fall below 40%. Importantly, the MixAway bag retains the same exceptional strength and performance characteristics as traditional bags.
