Bristol Concrete and Screed Plant

Concrete In Bristol Supplied For New Wind Turbine

A 660m3 pour of readymix concrete in Bristol has been completed for Knights Brown Construction to Accolade Wines in Avonmouth, a base for a new wind turbine.

Supply from 3 ready-mix plants & some articulated truck mixers supplied by explore meant the pour was easily achieved within 11 hours. The placement through Cemex Go and tracking meant the pour could be planned early and the customer was informed all day of how many loads had been batched.

Great team work, planning and collaboration between the operations, technical, shipping and supply chain meant this complex mix with numerous admixtures went smoothly.

Readymix Concrete

Lowest density Porofoam ever supplied

Porofoam is our range of lightweight foam concrete solutions. We create bespoke mixes to meet customer specifications relating to density and strength by adding a technical foam to a base grout mix.

Bristol plant recently supplied the lowest density from within the range – 300kg/m³, the lowest foam concrete offered by a Readymix supplier in the market. This is extremely low density when you consider that ‘normal’ concrete densities are about 2400kg/m³. Well done to everyone involved, a great achievement.

Foamed Concrete

Foamed Concrete in Bristol Supplied for Nightclub Basement Infill

Approached by Ikon Construction Ltd. CEMEX were asked to supply an infill, lightweight concrete that would be suitable for a nightclub basement in Bristol.

We recommended Porofoam 500 foamed concrete due to its very low density (500kg/m3) and its ease of application. The project was supplied with 110m3 in one day with no on-site set up required.

CEMEX foamed concrete is delivered ready to place direct from our network of Readmix Plants, making it possible to deliver any volume requirements at very low densities, which makes it ideal for this kind of job.
