The new Sakrete website.
Sakrete, North America’s original bagged concrete mix brand, has launched its new website, www.sakrete.com with improved product features and capabilities which include: product information, a concrete calculator and project “how-to” videos.

The website now includes a drop down menu which allows one to easily locate any product. Other features include a Sakrete project gallery page, project specific “how-to” videos, and technical product information. A new concrete calculator is available to assist customers in selecting the right amount of material, such as Sakrete High Strength concrete mix or Paver Set Polymeric Sand, for each specific project.

The “how-to” videos on specific Sakrete products allow the viewers to learn how to properly use the product for their individual project as well as learn helpful hints working on concrete related projects. “The goal of the new website is to create a user friendly functional site that would educate our customers and give them up-to-date information at their fingertips,” said Johnsie Beck, President of Sakrete of North America. “We pride ourselves on being a 24/7 customer and technical service company because we know every project doesn’t follow a set in concrete plan.”
