A filler for production of cement-bound shaped bodies, comprising a material group mixture of comminuted and sorted waste materials, conditioned with chemical reagents/compounds in the presence of water, wherein the material group mixture is composed of comminuted and sorted waste materials, selected from the following material groups: PPK: paper, paperboard, cardboard plastics inert material textiles wood
which are mixed according with a mass-related material group vector and then comminuted.

Cementitious compositions and methods for the preparation of corresponding cementitious compositions, appropriate oxidatively degraded polysaccharides and methods for producing the same, as well as the use of oxidatively degraded polysaccharides as water reducing agents in cementitious compositions, wherein the compositions include an oxidatively degraded polysaccharide as a water reducing agent to provide similar water reducing properties to cementitious composition formulated with lignosulfonates. The oxidatively degraded polysaccharides have the advantage over lignosulfonates of a lower price and a more consistent quality and are expected to be compatible with polycarboxylatether cement additives.
