And conditioned in 25kg these are often cement-based adhesives (tiling), less volume is used on a site compared to cement for mortar or concrete. Or the speedy cement that we use for quick sealing, there's no point in having huge bags if it's to then store them.
For a pallet of concrete cement in a bag of 35kg, it leaves 1 to 10 bags of 25kg of cement glue, it is useless to sell it wholesale, it is according to its usefulness. A cement like plaster has a limited lifespan. A cement bag bottom that has taken on moisture will not withstand the same constraints as a cement used with a new bag.
On the other hand a mason takes wholesale, it has wholesale prices ... in 35kg or 50kg, after the handyman of Sunday pays his bag per unit more expensive, it is surely true, finally for me it is not camouflage of rising prices unlike the jar of cottage cheese which goes from 1kg to 850gr for supposedly the same price.
The profits from the increase are not returned to the pension funds, of course, but the sickness funds and the social security spend much more on the other side for operations (kneecaps for the hips, for example). While until now the use of cottage cheese in a 1kg jar does not make you sick while carrying loads of 50kg all your life yes!
A 50 kg bag on each shoulder !!!!!
And how did this mason finish?
The bp is the same for movers, it looks like they want to beat their record!
This proves that the regulation is useless if not to make the state less responsible. We cannot put a gendarme behind each mason but we can put 15 gendarmes to protect the house of Christian Clavier in Corsica
(info this morning on the radio)
In the Brico-Dépot catalog there is indeed a 40 kg bag of concrete on the "powdery" page. Strange.
