In what is said to be a first for the ready mix sector, UK customers are set to benefit from the introduction of new mobile Ultra ready mix concrete plants. Lafarge Tarmac has invested in two units to strengthen its existing nationwide concrete offering and provide customers with 24-hour security of supply to projects in remote locations.
In what is said to be a first for the ready mix sector, UK customers are set to benefit from the introduction of new mobile Ultra ready mix concrete plants.
Lafarge Tarmac has invested in two units to strengthen its existing nationwide concrete offering and provide customers with 24-hour security of supply to projects in remote locations.
The two new mobile Ultra plants can be transported direct to site as a standard load and assembled within just 24 hours to significantly reduce plant installation times, says Lafarge Tarmac.
The plants can operate round-the-clock to deliver continuous supply and can produce volumes of up to 60m3/hour. The mobile Ultra units also minimise vehicle movements to and from site, reducing logistics costs and carbon emissions.
“We’re constantly looking for innovative solutions to help customers address challenges and deliver construction projects as effectively as possible,” says Richard Stares, commercial director for Lafarge Tarmac’s Readymix business.
“Clients have told us that a traditional mobile plant isn’t always suitable, so we wanted to offer an alternative to meet these needs. Our new kit offers flexibility and quick set up times, helping clients to manage costs and cut carbon, whilst still giving them the reassurance of receiving the same high levels of quality, supply and technical support that you’d expect from one of our standard plants.”
Each plant is operated by a dedicated on-site technical team to provide expert advice and support to deliver ready mix concrete to meet the specific requirements of any project.
