Ready mix concrete, by grade and by mix

One product, every structural grade. Start from the grade on your drawing or from the element you are pouring; each grade family and special mix has its own page.

A

Mix explorer

Choose the grade and the element. The explorer suggests the mix family, workability and placement, and carries the choice into your quote.

Grade on the drawing

What are you pouring

Guidance only: strength targets follow IS 456 grade designations and typical early gain; slump and placement are typical for the element. The lab issues the mix design for your site.

Three ways to mix

The right method depends on grade, distance to site and the pour rate.

Transit-mixed (truck-mixed)

Ingredients are loaded into the truck mixer and water is added at the plant or on the way, so mixing finishes in transit.

Central-mixed (wet mix)

Concrete is completely mixed in the plant’s twin-shaft mixer before it is discharged into the truck. Our standard for most grades.

Shrink-mixed

Partially mixed at the plant and finished in the truck drum during transport, which raises plant throughput on big pours.

Common questions

Which concrete grades do you supply?

Standard structural grades for slabs, columns and foundations through to high-strength mixes of M60 and above. Tell us the grade on your drawing and we will confirm the mix design.

What is the difference between transit-mixed and central-mixed concrete?

In central mixing the concrete is fully mixed in the plant’s twin-shaft mixer before loading, which is our standard. In transit mixing the materials are loaded dry and water is added at the plant or on the way. Shrink-mixing is a combination of the two.

Do you supply pumps with the concrete?

Yes. Pumpable mixes can be placed through boom pumps or stationary pumps. Tell us the height and distance of the pour and we will plan the placement with you.

How is quality checked?

Raw materials and finished concrete are tested in our in-house lab. Slump is checked at the plant and on site, and cubes are cast and tested at 7 and 28 days against the specified grade.
