Sense Concrete is a revolutionary advanced concrete mixture proportioning
service that achieves new levels of performance, economics and sustainability.
Green Sense Concrete is an environmentally-preferred, cost-effective concrete
with optimized proportions in which supplementary cementitious materials,
non-cementitious fillers, or both, are used with special Master Builders
Solutions brand MasterGlenium® high-range water-reducing admixtures and/or
MasterSure® Z 60 workability-retaining admixture to meet or exceed performance
targets.

Sense Concrete is a new concrete that, relative to a baseline reference mix,
attains desired setting characteristics, strength, durability, and if needed, a
higher slump at a reduced cost to the producer. The innovative Green Sense
Concrete allows producers to increase their profitability, provide the
contractor with a user-friendly mix that pumps and places efficiently,
increases the service-life of structures, and offers the opportunity to
positively influence the environment.
