Precast Concrete & Architectural Veneer
Mold life and part release are critical to maintaining efficiency and consistency in precast concrete and architectural veneer production. Chem-Trend’s concrete mold release agents are formulated to deliver reliable performance under demanding conditions. They help extend mold longevity, reduce buildup, and ensure clean, consistent part release. Our easily water-dilutable solutions support leaner operations by minimizing downtime, improving surface quality, and enabling higher throughput. This gives your team the tools needed to meet production targets while maintaining quality standards.
Chem-Trend understands the extremely harsh effects of concrete on flexible substrate molds and has developed its concrete mold release agents for architectural concrete and stone veneer manufacturers to provide:
- Extended service life of flexible molds
- Optimal pigment transfer and color appearance
- Improved concrete mold release ease
- Highly dilutable water-based materials
- Cleaner, safer environments
- Low/No VOC for LEED approval
- Higher quality parts
- Less downtime
- Lower scrap rates
- Cleaner molds
Chem-Trend understands that the goal of stone veneer manufacturers is to make pieces that look and feel real. That is why our mold release agents for creating master molds are designed to assure that every detail from the stone master is transferred to the mold. Our release agents then ensure that the detail created in the mold is transferred to the finished part, creating a real stone look with every stone veneer. Chem-Trend’s concrete mold release agents also help guarantee that the pigment is efficiently transferred to the veneer, further improving that real stone look.
When customers purchase Chem-Trend mold release agents, they also gain access to a worldwide support network of industry professionals committed to providing the right product for their application. We make our global expertise available locally to customers through our sales, technical, and support professionals. Our production facilities use leading development, testing and production equipment and processes to assure consistent batch-to-batch products.
