NOMIX® PostSet® Instant Post-hole Concrete — now with the SAKRETE® brand

NOMIX® PostSet® instant post-hole concrete added to family of SAKRETE® branded concrete mixes.
SAKRETE® has added NOMIX® PostSet® instant post-hole concrete to its family of SAKRETE® branded concrete mixes, as a result of a co-branding agreement with NOMIX®. SAKRETE® has made and distributed PostSet since 1994, so the co-branding is just a further extension of a long standing partnership.

PostSet provides high early strength so finishing work can be completed with ease. PostSet requires no mixing or bracing and has a set time of about five minutes. Use PostSet to quickly and easily anchor any type of wood, metal and vinyl post for many applications, such as mail boxes; fence and lamp posts; porch and deck supports; basketball and flag poles; swing sets; bird feeder and bird house posts; clotheslines, and more.

PostSet is sold in 40-pound bags at independent hardware stores and home centers across America.

To use PostSet, dig a hole suitable for your post and fill it about half full with water. Next, insert the post, pour in PostSet and align the post. Wait about five minutes and your post is set. Diagramed instructions can be found on the package.

Consumers can continue to look for the familiar PostSet packaging in stores — the only difference now is the addition of SAKRETE®’s diamond black-and-yellow logo.
