Read on to discover more about the benefits of ready-mixed concrete.
Precision Mixing
Ready-mixed concrete is prepared in a controlled environment, ensuring that the exact proportions of cement, water and aggregates are used. This precision results in a consistent mixture that meets specific project requirements reducing the risk of structural failures.
Uniformity
Using ready-mixed concrete eliminates variability that can occur with on-site mixing. This uniformity is crucial for projects that require reliable and predictable strength, such as foundations, beams and columns.
Reduced Labour Costs
With ready-mixed concrete, there is no need for on-site mixing, which saves significant labour costs. The concrete is delivered ready to use, allowing workers to focus on placing and finishing the material, thus speeding up the construction process.
Minimised Material Wastage
Since the concrete is mixed to order, there is less wastage compared to on-site mixing where excess materials are often prepared. This efficiency translates into cost savings and a more sustainable use of resources.
Our Eco-Friendly Concrete Solutions
WM Thompson & Sons is committed to sustainability. Our ready-mixed concrete solutions help reduce the carbon footprint of construction projects. By using locally sourced materials and optimising transport routes, we minimise emissions associated with concrete delivery.
Our production process incorporates recycled materials whenever possible. By doing so we reduce the need for virgin resources and promote a circular economy, making our concrete products an -eco-friendly choice for environmentally conscious uses.
Ready-mixed concrete can be tailored to suit a wide range of applications. Whether you need a high-length mix for structural components or a lightweight variant for insulation, our state-of-the-art batching plant can produce the exact mix required.
At WM Thompson & Sons, we offer a variety of specialty concrete products, including self-compacting concrete, high early-strength concrete, and porous concrete. These specialised mixes are designed to meet the unique demands of different construction scenarios.
