Concrete Industry
Our products are used in various concrete products in the Dutch concrete industry, namely: transport concrete (concrete mortar), concrete products and precast concrete elements.
Transport concrete is concrete mortar that is not produced on the construction site, but in a specialised concrete mortar plant. Cement, sand and gravel, water, any additives and fillers are mixed into a ready-to-use mortar. The product is then transported to the construction site with concrete mixer trucks to be processed on site .
Concrete products manufactured in mass or series in a factory (prefabrication), such as bricks, tiles and curbs as well as lintels, sills and many other products belong to the category of concrete products.
Precast concrete elements are concrete elements that are produced in advance in a factory or production facility and then transported to the construction site. Precast concrete offers several advantages, including higher quality and consistency, faster construction times, and less construction waste. Examples of precast concrete are: columns, stairs, balconies, piles, bridge sections and wall and floor elements for residential construction.
