Cemix Oxide Powder for colouring concrete
I have about 1.5kg of Cemix Coloured oxide in 2 convenient screw top jars which can be used to add colour to your mortar and or concrete. The jars have been mixed together and are now a reddish terracotta colour. Ample here to do a reasonable size area
For a 25Kg bag of concrete mix approx 300gms of Oxide and for a 40Kg concrete bag - 500gms of Oxide is recommended.
For a 30Kg Mortar bag - add approx 500gms of Oxide.
For a 30Kg plaster/render bag of Cemix Cemplaster mix 300gms of Oxide.
As a general rule - coloured oxide is added at a ratio of 1% - 4% by weight of cement in the mix.

Some Choice News!
DOC is rolling out a new tool to help figure out what to tackle first when it comes to protecting our threatened species and the things putting them at risk.
Why does this matter? As Nikki Macdonald from The Post points out, we’re a country with around 4,400 threatened species. With limited time and funding, conservation has always meant making tough calls about what gets attention first.
For the first time, DOC has put real numbers around what it would take to do everything needed to properly safeguard our unique natural environment. The new BioInvest tool shows the scale of the challenge: 310,177 actions across 28,007 sites.
Now that we can see the full picture, it brings the big question into focus: how much do we, as Kiwis, truly value protecting nature — and what are we prepared to invest to make it happen?
We hope this brings a smile!
