Ready mix concrete company for Macclesfield
New Mix Concrete supplies concrete delivery to Macclesfield from its depot in Stockport, one of three New Mix Concrete depots in the North West. Our Macclesfield customers vary from local authorities and contractors to domestic DIYers.
The concrete supplied by New Mix Concrete to Macclesfield customers is volumetric ready mix concrete.
What is volumetric ready mix concrete?
You may have already heard of ready mix concrete. There are differences between ready mix concrete and volumetric ready mix concrete.
Traditional ready mix concrete is mixed and batched at plant to order, and transported to the customer while still rotating on the vehicle to prevent it from setting.
The mixing of volumetric concrete only begins when the truck arrives at the customer’s site or property. There, it is mixed to the exact quantity required, and the hydration process only begins at the point of pouring which ensures maximum freshness and workability.
Benefits of volumetric ready mix concrete for Macclesfield projects
- With volumetric ready mix concrete you only pay for the concrete you use because the volumetric process produces concrete on demand, so doesn’t generate waste. The pumping stops as soon as there is enough concrete on site. A digital meter inside the concrete batching unit of the cement mixer truck measures the amount of concrete you have used
- Generating zero waste reduces landfill and minimises carbon footprint
- The concrete mix can be immediately altered on site in response to changing conditions or other project factors. Changes such as water-cement ratio, admixtures or strength grade can be easily done
- Because the hydration process only begins at site, volumetric ready mix concrete is fresher than traditional ready mix concrete and therefore easier to work with. It can also accommodate longer pour times
- Volumetric ready mix concrete can produce different mixes within one delivery. This may be necessary for different areas of the same project. For example, a higher strength mix is likely to be needed for footings than patios.
