Portland cement is a generic material produced by over 50 companies at over 125 plants in the U.S. and Canada. The principal use of cement is in concrete for construction. Concrete is a mixture of portland cement, aggregates (gravel and sand), and water. The cement used in S/S is the same as that used in concrete.
